Analysis of cross-polarization dynamics between two abundant nuclei, (19)F and (1)H, based on spin thermodynamics theory
The phenomenological theory of spin thermodynamics based on the spin temperature hypothesis was employed to describe the cross-polarization (CP) dynamics between two abundant nuclei, (19)F and (1)H, when the number of fluorine atoms is not substantially less than the number of hydrogens. The influence of T(1rho)'s of both nuclei and the relative magnitude (heat capacity) of the two spin baths must be incorporated explicitly into the analysis in order to derive values for the parameters involved in the CP dynamics. Numerical calculations were performed to clarify the difference in the evolution of magnetization in variable contact time CP experiments between the (1)H --> (13)C and (1)H --> (19)F cases. A new type of CP-drain experiment was developed for observing the residual (1)H magnetization after (1)H --> (19)F CP. (19)F direct polarization magic-angle spinning (MAS), (1)H --> (19)F CP, and (1)H --> (19)F CP-drain MAS NMR spectra have been measured for a fluorinated polyimide, 6FDA/ODA. The CP dynamics between (1)H and (19)F for the polyimide were analyzed on the basis of the spin thermodynamics theory. The constant for polarization transfer (T(HF)) was determined by the analysis using the effective CP parameters, which were directly obtained from the CP and CP-drain experiments, together with independently measured values of T(H)(1rho) and T(F)(1rho).
