Abstract
The study of enantiodiscriminations in relation to various facets of enantiomorphism (chirality/prochirality) and/or molecular symmetry is an exciting area of modern organic chemistry and an ongoing challenge for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopists who have developed many useful analytical approaches to solve stereochemical problems. Among them, the anisotropic NMR using chiral aligning solvents has provided a set of new and original tools by making accessible all intramolecular, order-dependent NMR interactions (anisotropic interactions), such as residual chemical shift anisotropy (RCSA), residual dipolar coupling (RDC), and residual quadrupolar coupling (RQC) for spin I > 1/2, while preserving high spectral resolution. The force of NMR in enantiopure, oriented solvents lies on its ability to orient differently in average on the NMR timescale enantiomers of chiral molecules and enantiotopic elements of prochiral ones, leading distinct NMR spectra or signals to be detected. In this compendium mainly written for all chemists playing with (pro)chirality, we overview various key aspects of NMR in weakly aligning chiral solvents as the lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs), in particular those developed in France to study (pro)chiral compounds in relation with chemists needs: study of enantiopurity of mixture, stereochemistry, natural isotopic fractionation, as well as molecular conformation and configuration. Key representative examples covering the diversity of enantiomorphism concept, and the main and most recent applications illustrating the analytical potential of this NMR in polypeptide-based chiral liquid crystals (CLCs) are examined. The latest analytical strategy developed to determine in-solution conformational distribution of flexibles solutes using NMR in polypeptide-based aligned solvents is also proposed.

Abstract
The family of resolution enhancement and spectral reconstruction techniques collectively known as covariance NMR continues to expand, along with the list of applications for these techniques. Recent advances in covariance NMR include the utilization of covariance to reconstruct pure shift NMR spectra, and the growing use of covariance NMR in processing non-uniformly sampled data, especially in solid state NMR and metabolomics. This review describes theoretical and practical considerations for direct and indirect covariance NMR techniques, and summarizes recent additions to the covariance NMR family. The review also outlines some of the applications of covariance NMR, and places covariance NMR in the larger context of methods that use statistical and algebraic approaches to enhance and combine various kinds of spectroscopic data, including tensor-based approaches for multidimensional NMR and heterocovariance spectroscopy.

Abstract
We describe three anisotropic ultrafast (UF) QUadrupolar Ordered SpectroscopY (QUOSY) 2D-NMR experiments (referred to as ADUF 2D NMR spectroscopy) designed for recording the 2 H homonuclear 2D spectra of weakly aligned (deuterated) solutes in sub-second experiment times. These new ADUF 2D experiments derive from the Q-COSY, Q-resolved and Q-DQ 2D pulse sequences (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1999, 121, 5249) and allow the correlation between the two components of each quadrupolar doublet, and then their assignment on the basis of 2 H chemical shifts. The UF 2D pulse sequences are analyzed by using the Cartesian spin-operator formalism for spin I=1 nuclei with a small quadrupolar moment. The optimal experimental/practical conditions as well as the resolution, sensitivity and quantification issues of these ADUF 2D experiments are discussed on comparison to their conventional 2D counterparts and their analytical potentialities. Illustrative ADUF 2D experiments using deuterated achiral/prochiral/chiral solutes in poly-γ-benzyl-L-glutamate based chiral liquid crystals are presented, as well as the first examples of natural abundance deuterium (ANADUF) 2D spectrum using 14.1 T magnetic field and a basic gradient unit (53 G.cm-1 ) in oriented solvents.

Abstract
NMR spectroscopy of oriented samples makes accessible residual anisotropic intramolecular NMR interactions, such as chemical shift anisotropy (RCSA), dipolar coupling (RDC), and quadrupolar coupling (RQC), while preserving high spectral resolution. In addition, in a chiral aligned environment, enantiomers of chiral molecules or enantiopic elements of prochiral compounds adopt different average orientations on the NMR timescale, and hence produce distinct NMR spectra or signals. NMR spectroscopy in chiral aligned media is a powerful analytical tool, and notably provides unique information on (pro)chirality analysis, natural isotopic fractionation, stereochemistry, as well as molecular conformation and configuration. Significant progress has been made in this area over the three last decades, particularly using polypeptide-based chiral liquid crystals (CLCs) made of organic solutions of helically chiral polymers (as PBLG) in organic solvents. This review presents an overview of NMR in polymeric LCs. In particular, we describe the theoretical tools and the major NMR methods that have been developed and applied to study (pro)chiral molecules dissolved in such oriented solvents. We also discuss the representative applications illustrating the analytical potential of this original NMR tool. This overview article is dedicated to thirty years of original contributions to the development of NMR spectroscopy in polypeptide-based chiral liquid crystals.

[PMID: 31189121 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2019.05.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 75] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2019] [Revised: 05/21/2019] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a powerful technique for the characterization of the atomic-level structure and dynamics of materials. Nevertheless, the use of this technique is often limited by its lack of sensitivity, which can prevent the observation of surfaces, defects or insensitive isotopes. Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) has been shown to improve by one to three orders of magnitude the sensitivity of NMR experiments on materials under Magic-Angle Spinning (MAS), at static magnetic field B0 ≥ 5 T, conditions allowing for the acquisition of high-resolution spectra. The field of DNP-NMR spectroscopy of materials has undergone a rapid development in the last ten years, spurred notably by the availability of commercial DNP-NMR systems. We provide here an in-depth overview of MAS DNP-NMR studies of materials at high B0 field. After a historical perspective of DNP of materials, we describe the DNP transfers under MAS, the transport of polarization by spin diffusion and the various contributions to the overall sensitivity of DNP-NMR experiments. We discuss the design of tailored polarizing agents and the sample preparation in the case of materials. We present the DNP-NMR hardware and the influence of key experimental parameters, such as microwave power, magnetic field, temperature and MAS frequency. We give an overview of the isotopes that have been detected by this technique, and the NMR methods that have been combined with DNP. Finally, we show how MAS DNP-NMR has been applied to gain new insights into the structure of organic, hybrid and inorganic materials with applications in fields, such as health, energy, catalysis, optoelectronics etc.
