Abstract
Introduction Oligonucleotide (ON) therapy is a promising treatment for a wide range of complex genetic disorders, but inefficient intracellular ON delivery has hindered clinical translation. Hollow silica nanoparticles (HSN) hold potential as effective ON delivery vehicles since ON can be encapsulated in the hollow core in situ where they are protected from degradation by eg nucleases. However, HSN must be modified to allow degradation and subsequent (sub)cellular ON release. In this report, we investigated the use of ion and fluorescent dye co-doping in the HSN silica matrix to enable HSN degradability and in vitro visualization. Methods HSN were core encapsulated with ON, doped with Ca2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Se2+ and Sr2+ ions and co-condensed with rhodamine b isothiocyanate (RITC) by a modified reverse microemulsion method. HSN were physiochemically characterized and their biological activity such as uptake and toxicity were evaluated in mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Results We successfully doped HSN with RITC and Ca2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Sr2+ ions. We observed that doping HSN with Ca2+ and Sr2+ enhanced RITC incorporation while ON encapsulation in HSN increased Cu2+ and Zn2+ doping efficiency. Moreover, our dual-doped HSN demonstrated controlled ON release in the presence of intracellular mimicking levels of glutathione (GSH) and limited release in the absence of GSH over 14 days. HSN were biocompatible in hMSCs up to 300 µg/mL except for Cu2+ doped HSNs which were cytotoxic even at ~10 µg/mL. HSN uptake was influenced by the dopant ion, DNA encapsulation, and HSN concentration, where Zn-HSN showed the lowest and Sr-HSN and Se-HSND, the highest uptake in hMSCs. Conclusion We report a straightforward one-pot procedure to create ion and fluorescent dye co-doped HSN that can efficiently incorporate ON, as promising new gene vectors.

Bryce DL. Double-rotation (DOR) NMR spectroscopy: Progress and perspectives. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2024; 130:101923. [PMID: 38471386 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2024.101923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
Double-rotation (DOR) solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a high-resolution technique developed in the late 1980s. Although multiple-quantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) became the most widely used high-resolution method for half-integer spin quadrupoles after 1995, development and application of DOR NMR to a variety of chemical and materials science problems has endured. This Trend article recapitulates the development of DOR NMR, discusses various applications, and describes possible future directions. The main technical limitations specific to DOR NMR are simply related to the size of the double rotor system. The relatively large outer rotor (and thus coil) used for most applications over the past 35 years translates into relatively low rotor spinning frequencies, a low filling factor, and weak radiofrequency powers available for excitation and for proton decoupling. Ongoing developments in NMR instrumentation, including ever-shrinking MAS rotors and spherical NMR rotors, could solve many of these problems and may augur a renaissance for DOR NMR.

Abstract
This study demonstrates the application of 103Rh solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy to inorganic and organometallic coordination compounds, in combination with relativistic density functional theory (DFT) calculations of 103Rh chemical shift tensors and their analysis with natural bond orbital (NBO) and natural localized molecular orbital (NLMO) protocols, to develop correlations between 103Rh chemical shift tensors, molecular structure, and Rh-ligand bonding. 103Rh is one of the least receptive NMR nuclides, and consequently, there are very few reports in the literature. We introduce robust 103Rh SSNMR protocols for stationary samples, which use the broadband adiabatic inversion-cross polarization (BRAIN-CP) pulse sequence and wideband uniform-rate smooth-truncation (WURST) pulses for excitation, refocusing, and polarization transfer, and demonstrate the acquisition of 103Rh SSNMR spectra of unprecedented signal-to-noise and uniformity. The 103Rh chemical shift tensors determined from these spectra are complemented by NBO/NLMO analyses of contributions of individual orbitals to the 103Rh magnetic shielding tensors to understand their relationship to structure and bonding. Finally, we discuss the potential for these experimental and theoretical protocols for investigating a wide range of materials containing the platinum group elements.

[PMID: 38313477 PMCID: PMC10831850 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c08292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/06/2024]
Abstract
Calcium ion complexation in aqueous solutions is of paramount importance in biology as it is related to cell signaling, muscle contraction, or biomineralization. However, Ca2+-complexes are dynamic soluble entities challenging to describe at the molecular level. Nuclear magnetic resonance appears as a method of choice to probe Ca2+-complexes. However, 43Ca NMR exhibits severe limitations arising from the low natural abundance coupled to the low gyromagnetic ratio and the quadrupolar nature of 43Ca, which overall make it a very unreceptive nucleus. Here, we show that 43Ca dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR of 43Ca-labeled frozen solutions is an efficient approach to enhance the NMR receptivity of 43Ca and to obtain structural insights about calcium ions complexed with representative ligands including water molecules, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and l-aspartic acid (l-Asp). In these conditions and in combination with numerical simulations and calculations, we show that 43Ca nuclei belonging to Ca2+ complexed to the investigated ligands exhibit rather low quadrupolar couplings (with CQ typically ranging from 0.6 to 1 MHz) due to high symmetrical environments and potential residual dynamics in vitrified solutions at a temperature of 100 K. As a consequence, when 1H→43Ca cross-polarization (CP) is used to observe 43Ca central transition, "high-power" νRF(43Ca) conditions, typically used to detect spin 1/2 nuclei, provide ∼120 times larger sensitivity than "low-power" conditions usually employed for detection of quadrupolar nuclei. These "high-power" CPMAS conditions allow two-dimensional (2D) 1H-43Ca HetCor spectra to be readily recorded, highlighting various Ca2+-ligand interactions in solution. This significant increase in 43Ca NMR sensitivity results from the combination of distinct advantages: (i) an efficient 1H-mediated polarization transfer from DNP, resembling the case of low-natural-abundance spin 1/2 nuclei, (ii) a reduced dynamics, allowing the use of CP as a sensitivity enhancement technique, and (iii) the presence of a relatively highly symmetrical Ca environment, which, combined to residual dynamics, leads to the averaging of the quadrupolar interaction and hence to efficient high-power CP conditions. Interestingly, these results indicate that the use of high-power CP conditions is an effective way of selecting symmetrical and/or dynamic 43Ca environments of calcium-containing frozen solution, capable of filtering out more rigid and/or anisotropic 43Ca sites characterized by larger quadrupolar constants. This approach could open the way to the atomic-level investigation of calcium environments in more complex, heterogeneous frozen solutions, such as those encountered at the early stages of calcium phosphate or calcium carbonate biomineralization events.

Abstract
We report 43 Ca and 13 C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic studies of the ethylene glycol solvate of atorvastatin calcium. The 13 C and 43 Ca chemical shift and 43 Ca quadrupolar coupling tensor parameters are reported. The results are interpreted in terms of the reported X-ray diffraction crystal structure of the solvate and are compared with the NMR parameters of atorvastatin calcium trihydrate, the active pharmaceutical ingredient in Lipitor®. Hartree-Fock and density functional theory calculations of the NMR parameters based on a cluster model derived from the optimized X-ray diffraction crystal structure of the ethylene glycol solvate of atorvastatin calcium are in reasonable agreement with the experimental 43 Ca and 13 C NMR measurables.

Abstract
We present a review of recent advances in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) studies of exotic nuclei. Exotic nuclei may be spin-1/2 or quadrupolar, and typically have low gyromagnetic ratios, low natural abundances, large quadrupole moments (when I > 1/2), or some combination of these properties, generally resulting in low receptivities and/or prohibitively broad line widths. Some nuclides are little studied for other reasons, also rendering them somewhat exotic. We first discuss some of the recent progress in pulse sequences and hardware development which continues to enable researchers to study new kinds of materials as well as previously unfeasible nuclei. This is followed by a survey of applications to a wide range of exotic nuclei (including e.g., 9Be, 25Mg, 33S, 39K, 43Ca, 47/49Ti, 53Cr, 59Co, 61Ni, 67Zn, 73Ge, 75As, 87Sr, 115In, 119Sn, 121/123Sb, 135/137Ba, 185/187Re, 209Bi), most of them quadrupolar. The scope of the review is the past ten years, i.e., 2007-2017.

Abstract
Calcium-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are of high importance due to their low cost and bio-compatible metal centers. Understanding the local environment of calcium in these materials is critical for unraveling the origins of specific MOF properties. 43 Ca solid-state NMR spectroscopy is one of the very few techniques that can directly characterize calcium metal centers, however, the 43 Ca nucleus is a very challenging target for solid-state NMR spectroscopy due to its extremely low natural abundance and resonant frequency. In this work, natural abundance 43 Ca solid-state NMR spectroscopy, at a high magnetic field of 21.1 T, has been employed to characterize several calcium-based MOFs. We demonstrate that 43 Ca NMR spectra and quantum chemical calculations can probe the local structure of calcium metal centers within MOFs, investigate the presence of guests, and monitor phase changes.

Abstract
With the increasing number of organocalcium and organomagnesium complexes under development, there is a real need to be able to characterize in detail their local environment in order to fully rationalize their reactivity. For crystalline structures, in cases when diffraction techniques are insufficient, additional local spectroscopies like 25Mg and 43Ca solid-state NMR may provide valuable information to help fully establish the local environment of the metal ions. In this current work, a prospective DFT investigation on crystalline magnesium and calcium complexes involving low-coordination numbers and N-bearing organic ligands was carried out, in which the 25Mg and 43Ca NMR parameters [isotropic chemical shift, chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) and quadrupolar parameters] were calculated for each structure. The analysis of the calculated parameters in relation to the local environment of the metal ions revealed that they are highly sensitive to very small changes in geometry/distances, and hence that they could be used to assist in the refinement of crystal structures. Moreover, such calculations provide a guideline as to how the NMR measurements will need to be performed, revealing that these will be very challenging.

Abstract
Hydrated calcium pyrophosphates (CPP, Ca2P2O7·nH2O) are a fundamental family of materials among osteoarticular pathologic calcifications. In this contribution, a comprehensive multinuclear NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) study of four crystalline and two amorphous phases of this family is presented. (1)H, (31)P and (43)Ca MAS (Magic Angle Spinning) NMR spectra were recorded, leading to informative fingerprints characterizing each compound. In particular, different (1)H and (43)Ca solid state NMR signatures were observed for the amorphous phases, depending on the synthetic procedure used. The NMR parameters of the crystalline phases were determined using the GIPAW (Gauge Including Projected Augmented Wave) DFT approach, based on first-principles calculations. In some cases, relaxed structures were found to improve the agreement between experimental and calculated values, demonstrating the importance of proton positions and pyrophosphate local geometry in this particular NMR crystallography approach. Such calculations serve as a basis for the future ab initio modeling of the amorphous CPP phases. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The general concept of NMR crystallography is applied to the detailed study of calcium pyrophosphates (CPP), whether hydrated or not, and whether crystalline or amorphous. CPP are a fundamental family of materials among osteoarticular pathologic calcifications. Their prevalence increases with age, impacting on 17.5% of the population after the age of 80. They are frequently involved or associated with acute articular arthritis such as pseudogout. Current treatments are mainly directed at relieving the symptoms of joint inflammation but not at inhibiting CPP formation nor at dissolving these crystals. The combination of advanced NMR techniques, modeling and DFT based calculation of NMR parameters allows new original insights in the detailed structural description of this important class of biomaterials.

Abstract
A thorough investigation of solid-state NMR signal enhancement schemes and high-resolution techniques for application to the spin-7/2 43Ca nuclide are presented. Signal enhancement experiments employing double frequency sweeps, hyperbolic secant pulses, and rotor-assisted population transfer, which manipulate the satellite transitions of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei to polarize the central transition (m = + 1/2 ↔ –1/2), are carried out on four well-characterized 43Ca isotopically enriched calcium salts: Ca(NO3)2, Ca(OD)2, CaSO4·2H2O, and Ca(OAc)2·H2O. These results, in conjunction with numerical simulations of 43Ca NMR spectra under magic-angle spinning conditions, are used to identify the technique that provides the most uniform (or quantitative) polarization enhancement as well as the largest signal enhancement factors independent of size of the 43Ca quadrupolar coupling constant, which is the most significant source of resonance broadening in 43Ca NMR spectra. These samples are further investigated using 43Ca double-rotation NMR spectroscopy to yield isotropic, or solution-like, NMR spectra with exquisite resolution. In addition, three unique calcium sites are resolved for the hemihydrated form of calcium acetate (unknown structure), Ca(OAc)2·0.5H2O, with double-rotation NMR, whereas the more common, but more time-consuming, multiple quantum magic-angle spinning technique only clearly resolves two calcium sites. The results shown herein will be useful for other NMR spectroscopists attempting to acquire 43Ca solid-state NMR data for unknown and more complex materials with a higher degree of both sensitivity and resolution.

Abstract
⁴³Ca MQMAS NMR spectra of three silica-based glasses in which Ca²⁺ ions play different structural roles have been collected and processed in order to extract the underlying NMR parameter distributions. The NMR parameters have been interpreted with the help of molecular dynamics simulations and DFT-GIPAW calculations. This synergetic experimental-computational approach has allowed us to investigate the Ca environment, to estimate Ca coordination numbers from MD-derived models, and to push further the discussion about ⁴³Ca NMR sensitivity to the first and second coordination spheres: ⁴³Ca δiso and Ca-O distance can be successfully correlated as a function of Ca coordination number.

Abstract
The vaterite polymorph of CaCO3 has puzzled crystallographers for decades in part due to difficulties in obtaining single crystals. The multiple proposed structures for the vaterite polymorph of CaCO3 are assessed using a combined (43)Ca solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopic and computational approach. A combination of improved experimental and computational methods, along with a calibrated chemical shift scale and (43)Ca nuclear quadrupole moment, allow for improved insights relative to our earlier work (Bryce et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 9282). Here, we synthesize a (43)Ca isotopically-enriched sample of vaterite and perform high-resolution quadrupolar SSNMR experiments including magic-angle spinning (MAS), double-rotation (DOR), and multiple-quantum (MQ) MAS experiments at magnetic field strengths of 9.4 and 21.1T. We identify one crystallographically unique Ca(2+) site in vaterite with a slight distribution in both chemical shifts and quadrupolar parameters. Both the experimental (43)Ca electric field gradient tensor and the isotropic chemical shift for vaterite are compared to those calculated with the gauge-including projector-augmented-wave (GIPAW) DFT method in an attempt to identify the model that best represents the crystal structure of vaterite. Simulations of (43)Ca DOR and MAS NMR spectra based on the NMR parameters computed for a total of 18 structural models for vaterite allow us to distinguish between these models. Among these 18, the P3221 and C2 structures provide simulated spectra and diffractograms in best agreement with all experimental data.

Abstract
Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has long been established as offering unique atomic-scale and element-specific insight into the structure, disorder, and dynamics of materials. NMR spectra of quadrupolar nuclei (I > (1)/2) are often perceived as being challenging to acquire and to interpret because of the presence of anisotropic broadening arising from the interaction of the electric field gradient and the nuclear electric quadrupole moment, which broadens the spectral lines, often over several megahertz. Despite the vast amount of information contained in the spectral line shapes, the problems with sensitivity and resolution have, until very recently, limited the application of NMR spectroscopy of quadrupolar nuclei in the solid state. In this Perspective, we provide a brief overview of the quadrupolar interaction, describe some of the basic experimental approaches used for acquiring high-resolution NMR spectra, and discuss the information that these spectra can provide. We then describe some interesting recent examples to showcase some of the more exciting and challenging new applications of NMR spectra of quadrupolar nuclei in the fields of energy materials, microporous materials, Earth sciences, and biomaterials. Finally, we consider the possible directions that this highly informative technique may take in the future.

Abstract
Current developments of NMR crystallography as well as some recent applications to diamagnetic inorganic solids are presented. First, we illustrate how solid-state NMR data can be used in combination with diffraction data for the determination of the periodic part of the crystal structures, from the space group selection, to the structure determination over the refinement and validation processes. As ss-NMR, contrary to diffraction (powder and single-crystal), is not restricted to periodic boundary conditions, ss-NMR data can be used to further complete the structural description of materials, including studies of local order/disorder, etc. This illustrated through examples, which are shown and discussed in the second part of this review.

Abstract
The structural characterization of a (13)CO-labeled Ir(I) complex bearing an P,N-donor ligand (1-[2-(diphenylphosphino)ethyl]pyrazole), [Ir(PyP)((13)CO)Cl] is demonstrated using a series of tailored solid-state NMR techniques based on ultrafast (60 kHz) Magic Angle Spinning (MAS), which facilitates correlations with narrow proton line-widths. Our 1D (1)H MAS and 2D (13)C and (31)P CP-MAS NMR spectra provided structural information similar to that obtained using NMR spectroscopy in solution. We employed high-resolution 2D solid-state correlation spectroscopy ((1)H-(13)C HETCOR, (1)H-(31)P correlation) to characterize the networks of dipolar couplings between protons and carbon/phosphorus. (1)H-(1)H SQ-SQ correlation spectra showed the dipolar contacts between all protons in a similar fashion to its solution counterpart, NOESY. The use of the (1)H single quantum/double quantum experiments made it possible to observe the dipolar-coupling contacts between immediately adjacent protons. Additionally, internuclear (13)CO-(31)P distance measurements were performed using REDOR. The combination of all of these techniques made it possible to obtain comprehensive structural information on the molecule [Ir(PyP)((13)CO)Cl] in the solid state, which is in excellent agreement with the single crystal X-ray structure of the complex, and demonstrates the enormous value of ultrafast MAS NMR techniques for a broad range of future applications.
