Dynamic Nuclear Polarization with a Rigid Biradical

Abstract
A new polarizing agent with superior performance in dynamic nuclear polarization experiments is introduced, and utilizes two TEMPO (2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl) moieties connected through a rigid spiro tether (see structure). The observed NMR signal intensities were enhanced by a factor of 1.4 compared to those of TOTAPOL, a previously described TEMPO‐based biradical with a flexible tether.
