Abstract

Overhauser DNP enhancements of toluene were measured at a
magnetic field of 0.35 Tesla in a series of chemically functionalized
nitroxide radicals. We observe that the enhancements increase
systematically with polarizer size and rotational correlation time.
Examination of the saturation factor of 14N nitroxides by pulsed
ELDOR spectroscopy led to a quantitative interpretation of the
enhancements, for which the saturation factor increases up to
almost unity due to enhanced nuclear (14N) relaxation in the nitroxide
radical. The observation has a direct impact on the choice of optimum
DNP polarizers in liquids.
