Fine-tuning the efficiency of para-hydrogen-induced hyperpolarization by rational N-heterocyclic carbene design

Fine-tuning the efficiency of para-hydrogen-induced hyperpolarization by rational N-heterocyclic carbene design

Hyperpolarization methods play a crucial role in the in vivo observation of molecular metabolism by MRI techniques. Here, the authors develop NHC-containing iridium complexes which improve the NMR detectability of 1H, 13C and 15N nuclei via transfer of latent magnetism of para-hydrogen into a substr...
