title: Coherence transfer signals in the rotational resonance NMR of a spinning single crystal
abstract: A recent analysis of rotational resonance lineshapes (M. Helmle et al., J. Magn. Reson. 140, 379-403, 1999) predicted the existence of coherence transfer signals, which are generated by mechanically induced coherence transfer during the detection process. These signals correspond to the generation of observable coherences at spin sites that have no magnetization at the beginning of the observation interval but which acquire coherence while the detection is underway. The coherence transfer signals disappear for powder samples in conventional magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR experiments. In this Communication, we report the successful detection of coherence transfer signals in rotor-synchronized experiments performed on a single crystal of [1,2-(13)C(2)]glycine.
