Imaging of the (1)H NMR second moment with (13)C chemical-shift resolution

Abstract:
A method of (13)C chemical-shift-resolved (1)H second moment imaging is proposed for molecular mobility imaging of heterogeneous materials. For evaluating the (1)H second moment, the method relies on the curve fitting procedure using spin-echo shapes indirectly: The information of (1)H echo shapes is transferred to the (13)C signal amplitude through (1)H-(13)C cross polarization and then the curve fitting is made using the (13)C signal amplitude. The (13)C signal is detected under (1)H dipolar decoupling and magic angle spinning, resulting in the incorporation of (13)C chemical-shift resolution. Imaging information is included in the (13)C signal by application of phase-encoding gradients. The second moment images obtained can reflect the molecular mobility at every molecular site separated by (13)C chemical shifts, yielding detailed information on the molecular mobility. The method is demonstrated by spatially 1D experiments performed on a model sample. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
