Capistran D, Harper JK, Hartman JD. Predicting 35-Cl electric field gradient tensors in crystalline solids using cluster and fragment-corrected planewave density functional theory. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2024; 133:101949.

Abstract
Planewave-corrected methods have proven effective for accurately modeling nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters in crystalline systems. Recent work extended the application of planewave-corrected calculations beyond the second row, predicting EFG tensor parameters for 35Cl using a simple molecular correction to projector augmented-wave (PAW) density functional theory (DFT). Here we extend this work using fragment and cluster-based calculations coupled with polarizable continuum (PCM) methods to improve further the accuracy of planewave-corrected 35Cl EFG tensor calculations. Benchmark data from a test set comprised of 105 individual 35Cl EFG tensor principal components for chlorine-containing molecular crystals and crystalline chloride salts shows fragment-corrected planewave calculations using the PBE0 hybrid density functional improve the accuracy of predicted EFG tensor components by 30 % relative to traditional planewave calculations. We compare the influence of different geometry optimization methods and density functionals on the accuracy of predicted 35Cl EFG tensor parameters. Four cases of spectral assignment are presented to demonstrate the utility of improving the accuracy of predicted 35Cl EFG tensor parameters.

Abstract
Dabrafenib (DBF), an anticancer drug, exhibits isostructural properties in its hydrate (DBF⊃H2O) and perhydrate (DBF⊃H2O2) forms, as revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Despite the H2O and H2O2 solvent molecules occupying identical locations, the two polymorphs have different thermal behaviors. In general, determination of stoichiometry of H2O in the perhydrate crystals is difficult due to the presence of both H2O and H2O2 in the same crystal voids. This study utilizes magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (SSNMR) combined with gauge-included projector augmented wave calculations to characterize the influence of solvent molecules on the local environment in pseudopolymorphs. SSNMR experiments were employed to assign 1H, 13C, and 15N peaks and identify spectral differences in the isostructural pseudopolymorphs. Proton spectroscopy at fast MAS was used to identify and quantify H2O2/H2O in DBF⊃H2O2 (mixed hydrate/perhydrate). 1H-1H dipolar-coupling-based experiments were recruited to confirm the 3D molecular packing of solvent molecules in DBF⊃H2O and DBF⊃H2O2. Homonuclear (1H-1H) and heteronuclear (1H-14N) distance measurements, in conjunction with diffraction structures and optimized hydrogen atom positions by density functional theory, helped decipher local interactions of H2O2 with DBF and their geometry in DBF⊃H2O2. This integrated X-ray structure, quantum chemical calculations, and NMR study of pseudopolymorphs offer a practical approach to scrutinizing crystallized solvent interactions in the crystal lattice even without high-resolution crystal structures or artificial sample enrichment.

Widdifield CM, Zakeri F. Can simple 'molecular' corrections outperform projector augmented-wave density functional theory in the prediction of 35 Cl electric field gradient tensor parameters for chlorine-containing crystalline systems? MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN CHEMISTRY : MRC 2024; 62:156-168.

Abstract
Many-body expansion (MBE) fragment approaches have been applied to accurately compute nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters in crystalline systems. Recent examples demonstrate that electric field gradient (EFG) tensor parameters can be accurately calculated for 14 N and 17 O. A key additional development is the simple molecular correction (SMC) approach, which uses two one-body fragment (i.e., isolated molecule) calculations to adjust NMR parameter values established using 'benchmark' projector augmented-wave (PAW) density functional theory (DFT) values. Here, we apply a SMC using the hybrid PBE0 exchange-correlation (XC) functional to see if this can improve the accuracy of calculated 35 Cl EFG tensor parameters. We selected eight organic and two inorganic crystal structures and considered 15 chlorine sites. We find that this SMC improves the accuracy of computed values for both the 35 Cl quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ ) and the asymmetry parameter ( η Q ) by approximately 30% compared with benchmark PAW DFT values. We also assessed a SMC that offers local improvements not only in terms of the quality of the XC functional but simultaneously in the quality of the description of relativistic effects via the inclusion of spin-orbit effects. As the inorganic systems considered contain heavy atoms bonded to the chlorine atoms, we find further improvements in the accuracy of calculated 35 Cl EFG tensor parameters when both a hybrid functional and spin-orbit effects are included in the SMC. On the contrary, for chlorine-containing organics, the inclusion of spin-orbit relativistic effects using a SMC does not improve the accuracy of computed 35 Cl EFG tensor parameters.

Abstract
This study describes the discovery of a unique ionic cocrystal of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) ponatinib hydrochloride (pon·HCl), and characterization using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy. Pon·HCl is a multicomponent crystal that features an unusual stoichiometry, with an asymmetric unit containing both monocations and dications of the ponatinib molecule, three water molecules, and three chloride ions. Structural features include (i) a charged imidazopyridazine moiety that forms a hydrogen bond between the ponatinib monocations and dications and (ii) a chloride ion that does not feature hydrogen bonds involving any organic moiety, instead being situated in a "square" arrangement with three water molecules. Multinuclear SSNMR, featuring high and ultra-high fields up to 35.2 T, provides the groundwork for structural interpretation of complex multicomponent crystals in the absence of diffraction data. A 13C CP/MAS spectrum confirms the presence of two crystallographically distinct ponatinib molecules, whereas 1D 1H and 2D 1H-1H DQ-SQ spectra identify and assign the unusually deshielded imidazopyridazine proton. 1D 35Cl spectra obtained at multiple fields confirm the presence of three distinct chloride ions, with density functional theory calculations providing key relationships between the SSNMR spectra and H⋯Cl- hydrogen bonding arrangements. A 2D 35Cl → 1H D-RINEPT spectrum confirms the spatial proximities between the chloride ions, water molecules, and amine moieties. This all suggests future application of multinuclear SSNMR at high and ultra-high fields to the study of complex API solid forms for which SCXRD data are unavailable, with potential application to heterogeneous mixtures or amorphous solid dispersions.

Abstract
Cross-polarization (CP) is a technique commonly used for the signal enhancement of NMR spectra; however, applications to quadrupolar nuclei have heretofore been limited due to a number of problems, including poor spin-locking efficiency, inconvenient relaxation times, and reduced CP efficiencies over broad spectral bandwidths─this is unfortunate, since they constitute 73% of NMR-active nuclei in the periodic table. The Broadband Adiabatic Inversion CP (BRAIN-CP) pulse sequence has proven useful for the signal enhancement of wideline and ultra-wideline (i.e., 250 kHz to several MHz in breadth) powder patterns arising from stationary samples; however, a comprehensive investigation of its application to half-integer quadrupolar nuclei (HIQN) is currently lacking. Herein, we present theoretical and experimental considerations for applying BRAIN-CP to acquire central-transition (CT, +1/2 ↔ -1/2) powder patterns of HIQN. Consideration is given to parameters crucial to the success of the experiment, such as the Hartmann-Hahn (HH) matching conditions and the phase modulation of the contact pulse. Modifications to the BRAIN-CP sequence such as flip-back (FB) pulses and ramped contact pulses applied to the 1H spins are used for the reduction of experimental times and increased CP bandwidth capabilities, respectively. Spectra for a series of quadrupolar nuclei with broad CT powder patterns, including 35Cl (S = 3/2), 55Mn (S = 5/2), 59Co (S = 7/2), and 93Nb (S = 9/2), are acquired via direct excitation (CPMG and WCPMG) and indirect excitation (CP/CPMG and BRAIN-CP) methods. We demonstrate that proper implementation of the sequence can enable 1H-S broadband CP over a bandwidth of 1 MHz, which to the best of our knowledge is the largest CP bandwidth reported to date. Finally, we establish the basic principles necessary for simplified optimization and execution of the BRAIN-CP pulse sequence for a wide range of HIQNs.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR of quadrupolar nuclei such as 35Cl has become a useful tool to characterize polymorphism in pharmaceutical hydrochlorides. The two-dimensional multiple-quantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) experiment can achieve isotropic resolution, and separate quadrupolar line shapes for samples with multiple sites but the pulse sequence efficiency is often low, limiting applications due to the intrinsically low NMR signals and rf field from the low gyromagnetic ratios γ. The use of cosine low-power MQMAS pulse sequences and high magnetic fields is presented to push the limit of MQMAS for insensitive low-γ quadrupolar nuclei. The improved efficiency and fields up to 35.2 T enable the acquisition of MQMAS spectra for pharmaceutical samples with multiple 35Cl sites, large quadrupolar couplings and/or in diluted dosage forms.

Abstract
A porous, nonsolvated polymorph of the voltage-gated sodium channel blocker mexiletine hydrochloride absorbs iodine vapor to give a pharmaceutical cocrystal incorporating an I2Cl- anion that forms a halogen-π interaction with the mexiletine cations. The most thermodynamically stable form of the compound does not absorb iodine. This example shows that vapor sorption is a potentially useful and underused tool for bringing about changes in pharmaceutical solid form as part of a solid form screening protocol.

Abstract
Crystallographic disorder, whether static or dynamic, can be detrimental to the physical and chemical stability, ease of crystallization and dissolution rate of an active pharmaceutical ingredient. Disorder can result in a loss of manufacturing control leading to batch-to-batch variability and can lengthen the process of structural characterization. The range of NMR active nuclei makes solid-state NMR a unique technique for gaining nucleus-specific information about crystallographic disorder. Here, we explore the use of high-field 35 Cl solid-state NMR at 23.5 T to characterize both static and dynamic crystallographic disorder: specifically, dynamic disorder occurring in duloxetine hydrochloride (1), static disorder in promethazine hydrochloride (2), and trifluoperazine dihydrochloride (3). In all structures, the presence of crystallographic disorder was confirmed by 13 C cross-polarization magic-angle spinning (CPMAS) NMR and supported by GIPAW-DFT calculations, and in the case of 3, 1 H solid-state NMR provided additional confirmation. Applying 35 Cl solid-state NMR to these compounds, we show that higher magnetic fields are beneficial for resolving the crystallographic disorder in 1 and 3, while broad spectral features were observed in 2 even at higher fields. Combining the data obtained from 1 H, 13 C, and 35 Cl NMR, we show that 3 exhibits a unique case of disorder involving the + N-H hydrogen positions of the piperazinium ring, driving the chloride anions to occupy three distinct sites.

Abstract
This study uses 35Cl and 2H solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy and dispersion-corrected plane-wave density functional theory (DFT) calculations to characterize the molecular-level structures and dynamics of hydrates of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). We use 35Cl SSNMR to measure the EFG tensors of the chloride ions to characterize hydrated forms of hydrochloride salts of APIs, along with two corresponding anhydrous forms. DFT calculations are used to refine the crystal structures of the APIs and determine relationships between the 35Cl EFG tensors and the spatial arrangements of proximate hydrogen bonds, which are particularly influenced by interactions with water molecules. We find that the relationship between 35Cl EFG tensors and local hydrogen bonding geometries is complex, but meaningful structure/property relationships can be garnered through use of DFT calculations. Specifically, for every case in which such a comparison could be made, we find that the hydrate has a smaller magnitude of CQ than the corresponding anhydrous form, indicating a chloride ion environment with a ground-state electron density of higher spherical symmetry in the former. Finally, variable-temperature 35Cl and 2H SSNMR experiments on a deuterium-exchanged sample of the API cimetidine hydrochloride monohydrate are used to monitor temperature-dependent influences on the spectra that may arise from motional influences on the 35Cl and 2H EFG tensors. From the 2H SSNMR spectra, we determine that the motions of water molecules are characterized by jump-like motions about their C2 rotational axes that occur on timescales that are unlikely to influence the 35Cl central-transition (+1/2 ↔︎ -1/2) powder patterns (this is confirmed by 35Cl SSNMR). Together, these methods show great promise for the future study of APIs in their bulk and dosage forms, especially variable hydrates in which crystallographic water content varies with external conditions such as humidity.

Abstract
We report an approach to obtain drug-mimetic supramolecular gelators, which are capable of stabilizing metastable polymorphs of the pharmaceutical salt mexiletine hydrochloride, a highly polymorphic antiarrhythmic drug. Solution-phase screening led to the discovery of two new solvated solid forms of mexiletine, a type C 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene tetarto-solvate and a type D nitrobenzene solvate. Various metastable forms were crystallized within the gels under conditions which would not have been possible in solution. Despite typically crystallizing concomitantly with form 1, a pure sample of form 3 was crystallized within a gel of ethyl methyl ketone. Various type A channel solvates were crystallized from gels of toluene and ethyl acetate, in which the contents of the channels varied from those of solution-phase forms. Most strikingly, the high-temperature-stable form 2 was crystallized from a gel in 1,2-dibromoethane: the only known route to access this form at room temperature. These results exemplify the powerful stabilizing effect of drug-mimetic supramolecular gels, which can be exploited in pharmaceutical polymorph screens to access highly metastable or difficult-to-nucleate solid forms.

Abstract
Quadrupolar solid-state NMR carries a wealth of structural information, including insights about chemical environments arising through the determination of local coupling parameters. Current methods can successfully resolve these parameters for individual sites using sample-spinning methods techniques applicable to quadrupolar I ≥ 1 nuclei, provided second-order central transition broadenings do not exceed by much the spinning rate. For large quadrupolar coupling (C Q) values, however, static acquisitions are often preferable, leading to challenges in extracting local structural information. This study explores the use of two-dimensional QUadrupolar Isotope Correlation SpectroscopY (QUICSY) experiments as a means to increase the NMR spectral resolution and enrich the characterization of quadrupolar NMR patterns under static conditions. QUICSY seeks to correlate the solid-state NMR powder line shapes for two quadrupolar isotopes belonging to the same element via a 2D experiment. In general, two isotopes of the same element will have different nuclear quadrupole moments, gyromagnetic ratios, and spin numbers but essentially identical chemical environments. The possibility then arises of obtaining sharp "ridges" in these 2D correlations, even in static samples showing large quadrupolar effects, which lead to second-order line shapes that are several kilohertz wide. Moreover, pairs of quadrupolar isotopes are recurrent in the periodic table and include important elements such as 35,37Cl, 69,71Ga, 79,81Br, and 85,87Rb. The potential of this approach is explored theoretically and experimentally on two rubidium-containing salts: RbClO4 and Rb2SO4. We find that each compound gives rise to distinctive 2D QUICSY line shapes, depending on the quadrupolar and chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) parameters of its sites. These experimental line shapes show good agreement with analytically derived 2D spectra relying on literature values of the quadrupolar and CSA tensors of these compounds. The approach underlined here paves the way toward better characterization of wideline NMR spectra of quadrupolar nuclei possessing different nuclear isotopes.

Abstract
This study uses 35Cl and 14N solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy and dispersion-corrected plane-wave density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the structural characterization of chloride salts of nutraceuticals in their bulk and dosage forms. For eight nutraceuticals, we measure the 35Cl EFG tensor parameters of the chloride ions and use plane-wave DFT calculations to elucidate relationships between NMR parameters and molecular-level structure, which provide rapid NMR crystallographic assessments of structural features. We employ both 35Cl direct excitation and 1H→35Cl cross-polarization methods to characterize a dosage form containing α-d-glucosamine HCl, observe possible impurity and/or adulterant phases, and quantify the weight percent of the active ingredient. To complement this, we also investigate 14N SSNMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations to characterize nitrogen atoms in the nutraceuticals. This includes a discussion of targeted acquisition experimental protocols (i.e., acquiring a select region of the overall pattern that features key discontinuities) that allow ultrawideline spectra to be acquired rapidly, even for unreceptive samples (i.e., those with long values of T1(14N), short values of T2eff(14N), or very broad patterns). It is hoped that these experimental and computational protocols will be useful for the characterization of various solid forms of nutraceuticals (i.e., salts, polymorphs, hydrates, solvates, cocrystals, amorphous solid dispersions, etc.), help detect impurity and counterfeit solid phases in dosage forms, and serve as a foundation for future NMR crystallographic studies of nutraceutical solid forms, including studies using ab initio crystal structure prediction algorithms.

Abstract
Heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence (HMQC) pulse sequences for establishing heteronuclear correlation in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) between 35 Cl and 1 H nuclei in chloride salts under fast (60 kHz) magic-angle spinning (MAS) and at high magnetic field (a 1 H Larmor frequency of 850 MHz) are investigated. Specifically, recoupling of the 35 Cl-1 H dipolar interaction using rotary resonance recoupling with phase inversion every rotor period or the symmetry-based SR42 1 pulse sequences are compared. In our implementation of the population transfer (PT) dipolar (D) HMQC experiment, the satellite transitions of the 35 Cl nuclei are saturated with an off-resonance WURST sweep, at a low nutation frequency, over the second spinning sideband, whereby the WURST pulse must be of the same duration as the recoupling time. Numerical simulations of the 35 Cl-1 H MAS D-HMQC experiment performed separately for each crystallite orientation in a powder provide insight into the orientation dependence of changes in the second-order quadrupolar-broadened 35 Cl MAS NMR lineshape under the application of dipolar recoupling. Two-dimensional 35 Cl-1 H PT-D-HMQC MAS NMR spectra are presented for the amino acids glycine·HCl and l-tyrosine·HCl and the pharmaceuticals cimetidine·HCl, amitriptyline·HCl and lidocaine·HCl·H2 O. Experimentally observed 35 Cl lineshapes are compared with those simulated for 35 Cl chemical shift and quadrupolar parameters as calculated using the gauge-including projector-augmented wave (GIPAW) method: the calculated quadrupolar product (PQ ) values exceed those measured experimentally by a factor of between 1.3 and 1.9.

Abstract
Accurate measurements of longitudinal relaxation time constants (T1) in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) experiments are important for the study of molecular-level structure and dynamics. Such measurements are often made under magic-angle spinning conditions; however, there are numerous instances where they must be made on stationary samples, which often give rise to broad powder patterns arising from large anisotropic NMR interactions. In this work, we explore the use of wideband uniform-rate smooth-truncation pulses for the measurement of T1 constants. Two experiments are introduced: (i) BRAIN-CPT1, a modification of the BRAIN-CP (BRoadband Adiabatic-INversion-Cross Polarization) sequence, for broadband CP-based T1 measurements and (ii) WCPMG-IR, a modification of the WURST-CPMG sequence, for direct-excitation (DE) inversion-recovery experiments. A series of T1 constants are measured for spin-1/2 and quadrupolar nuclei with broad powder patterns, such as 119Sn (I = 1/2), 35Cl (I = 3/2), 2H (I = 1), and 195Pt (I = 1/2). High signal-to-noise spectra with uniform patterns can be obtained due to signal enhancements from T2 eff-weighted echo trains, and in favorable cases, BRAIN-CPT1 allows for the rapid measurement of T1 in comparison to DE experiments. Protocols for spectral acquisition, processing, and analysis of relaxation data are discussed. In most cases, relaxation behavior can be modeled with either monoexponential or biexponential functions based upon measurements of integrated powder pattern intensity; however, it is also demonstrated that one must interpret such T1 values with caution, as demonstrated by measurements of T1 anisotropy in 119Sn, 2H, and 195Pt NMR spectra.

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
Ultrawideline 35Cl solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectra of a series of 12 tin chlorides were recorded. The magnitude of the 35Cl quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ) was shown to consistently indicate the chemical state (oxidation number) of the bound Sn center. The chemical state of the Sn center was independently verified by tin Mössbauer spectroscopy. CQ(35Cl) values of >30 MHz correspond to Sn(IV), while CQ(35Cl) readings of <30 MHz indicate that Sn(II) is present. Tin-119 SSNMR experiments would seem to be the most direct and effective route to interrogating tin in these systems, yet we show that ambiguous results can emerge from this method, which may lead to an incorrect interpretation of the Sn oxidation number. The accumulated 35Cl NMR data are used as a guide to assign the Sn oxidation number in the mixed-valent metal complex Ph3PPdImSnCl2. The synthesis and crystal structure of the related Ph3PPtImSnCl2 are reported, and 195Pt and 35Cl SSNMR experiments were also used to investigate its Pt-Sn bonding. Plane-wave DFT calculations of 35Cl, 119Sn, and 195Pt NMR parameters are used to model and interpret experimental data, supported by computed 119Sn and 195Pt chemical shift tensor orientations. Given the ubiquity of directly bound Cl centers in organometallic and inorganic systems, there is tremendous potential for widespread usage of 35Cl SSNMR parameters to provide a reliable indication of the chemical state in metal chlorides.

Abstract
Indirect NMR detection via protons under fast magic-angle spinning can help overcome the low sensitivity and resolution of low-γ quadrupole nuclei such as 35Cl. A robust and efficient method is presented for indirectly acquiring the double-quantum satellite-transition (DQ-ST) spectra of quadrupole nuclei. For a spin S = 3/2, the DQ-STs have a much smaller second-order quadrupolar broadening, one-ninth compared to that of the central transition. Thus, they can provide a factor of up to 18 in resolution enhancement. The indirect detection of DQ-STs via protons is carried out using the heteronuclear multiple-quantum coherence (HMQC) experiment with the transfer of populations in double-resonance (TRAPDOR) recoupling mechanism. The resolution enhancement by detecting DQ-STs and the high efficiency of the TRAPDOR-HMQC experiment are demonstrated by 35Cl NMR of several active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Abstract
Developments of NMR methodology to characterise the structures of molecular organic structures are reviewed, concentrating on the previous decade of research in which density functional theory-based calculations of NMR parameters in periodic solids have become widespread. With a focus on demonstrating the new structural insights provided, it is shown how "NMR crystallography" has been used in a spectrum of applications from resolving ambiguities in diffraction-derived structures (such as hydrogen atom positioning) to deriving complete structures in the absence of diffraction data. As well as comprehensively reviewing applications, the different aspects of the experimental and computational techniques used in NMR crystallography are surveyed. NMR crystallography is seen to be a rapidly maturing subject area that is increasingly appreciated by the wider crystallographic community.

Abstract
Atomic-level characterization of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) is crucial in pharmaceutical industry because APIs play an important role in physicochemical properties of drug formulations. However, the analysis of targeted APIs in intact tablet formulations is less straightforward due to the coexistence of excipients as major components and different APIs at dilute concentrations (often below 10 wt% loading). Although solid-state (ss) NMR spectroscopy is widely used to investigate short-range order, polymorphism, and pseudo-polymorphism in neat pharmaceutical compounds, the analysis of complex drug formulations is often limited by overlapped signals that originate from structurally different APIs and excipients. In particular, such examples are frequently encountered in the analysis of 1H ssNMR spectra of pharmaceutical formulations. While the high-resolution in 1H ssNMR spectra can be attained by, for example, high magnetic fields accompanied by fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) approaches, the spectral complexity associated with the mixtures of compounds hinders the accurate determination of chemical shifts and through-space proximities. Here we propose a fast MAS (70 kHz) NMR experiment for the selective detection of 1H signals associated with an API from a severely overlapped NMR spectrum of a tablet formulation. Spectral simplification is achieved by combining (i) symmetry-based dipolar recoupling (SR412) rotational-echo saturation-pulse double-resonance (RESPDOR) with phase-modulate (PM) saturation pulses, (ii) radio frequency-driven recoupling (RFDR), and (iii) double-quantum excitation using Back-to-Back (BaBa) pulse sequence elements. First, 1H sites in close proximities to 14N nuclei of an API are excited using a PM-S-RESPDOR sequence, and simultaneously, the other unwanted 1H signals of excipients are suppressed. Then, 1H magnetization transfer to adjacent 1H sites in the API is achieved by spin diffusion process using a RFDR sequence, which polarizes to 1H sites within the crystalline API regions of the drug formulation. Next, a PM-S-RESPDOR-RFDR sequence is combined with a Back-to-Back (BaBa) sequence to elucidate local-structures and 1H-1H proximities of the API in a dosage form. The PM-S-RESPDOR-RFDR-BaBa experiment is employed in one- (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) versions to selectively detect the 1H ssNMR spectrum of l-cysteine (10.6 wt% or 0.11 mg) in a commercial formulation, and compared with the spectra of neat l-cysteine recorded using a standard BaBa experiment. The 2D 1H double-quantum-single-quantum (DQ-SQ) spectrum of the API (l-cysteine)-detected pharmaceutical tablet is in good agreement with the 2D 1H DQ-SQ spectrum obtained from the pure API molecule. Furthermore, the sensitivity and robustness of the experiment is examined by selectively detecting 1H{14N} signals in an amino acid salt, l-histidine.H2O.HCl.

Abstract
The dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) efficiency is critically dependent on the properties of the radical, solvent, and solute constituting the sample system. In this study, we focused on the three spin e-e-n cross effect (CE)'s influence on the nuclear longitudinal relaxation time constant T1n, the build-up time constants of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal, TDNP and DNP-enhancement of NMR signal. The dipolar interaction strength between the electron spins driving the e-e-n process was systematically modulated using mono-, di-, tri-, and dendritic-nitroxide radicals, while maintaining a constant global electron spin concentration of 10 mM. Experimental results showed that an increase in electron spin clustering led to an increased electron spin depolarization, as mapped by electron double resonance (ELDOR), and a dramatically shortened T1n and TDNP time constants under static and magic angle spinning (MAS) conditions. A theoretical analysis reveals that strong e-e interactions, caused by electron spin clustering, increase the CE rate. The three spin e-e-n CE is a hitherto little recognized mechanism for shortening T1n and TDNP in solid-state NMR experiments at cryogenic temperatures, and offers a design principle to enhance the effective CE DNP enhancement per unit time. Fast CE rates will benefit DNP at liquid helium temperatures, or at higher magnetic fields and pulsed DNP, where slow e-e-n polarization transfer rate is a key bottleneck to achieving maximal DNP performance.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy has become a valuable tool for the characterization of both pure and formulated active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). However, NMR generally suffers from poor sensitivity that often restricts NMR experiments to nuclei with favorable properties, concentrated samples, and acquisition of one-dimensional (1D) NMR spectra. Here, we review how dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) can be applied to routinely enhance the sensitivity of solid-state NMR experiments by one to two orders of magnitude for both pure and formulated APIs. Sample preparation protocols for relayed DNP experiments and experiments on directly doped APIs are detailed. Numerical spin diffusion models illustrate the dependence of relayed DNP enhancements on the relaxation properties and particle size of the solids and can be used for particle size determination when the other factors are known. We then describe the advanced solid-state NMR experiments that have been enabled by DNP and how they provide unique insight into the molecular and macroscopic structure of APIs. For example, with large sensitivity gains provided by DNP, natural isotopic abundance, 13 C-13 C double-quantum single-quantum homonuclear correlation NMR spectra of pure APIs can be routinely acquired. DNP also enables solid-state NMR experiments with unreceptive quadrupolar nuclei such as 2 H, 14 N, and 35 Cl that are commonly found in APIs. Applications of DNP-enhanced solid-state NMR spectroscopy for the molecular level characterization of low API load formulations such as commercial tablets and amorphous solid dispersions are described. Future perspectives for DNP-enhanced solid-state NMR experiments on APIs are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Aminoalkanol and aroxyalkyl derivatives are known as potential anticonvulsants. Two new salts, namely bis{(R,S)-N-[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]-1-hydroxypropan-2-aminium} succinate (1s), C13H22NO2
+·0.5C4H4O4
2−, and bis{(S)-(+)-N-[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]-1-hydroxypropan-2-aminium} succinate (2s), C13H22NO2
+·0.5C4H4O4
2−, have been prepared and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The N atoms are protonated by proton transfer from succinic acid. Salt 1s crystallizes in the space group P21/n with one cation and half an anion in the asymmetric unit across an inversion centre, while (2s) crystallizes in the space group P21 with four cations and two anions in the asymmetric unit. The hydroxy group of the cation of 1s is observed in two R/S disorder positions. The crystals of these two salts display similar supramolecular architectures (i.e. two-dimensional networks), built mainly by intermolecular N+—H...Oδ− and O—H...Oδ− hydrogen bonds, where `δ−' represents a partial charge. The succinate anions are engaged in hydrogen bonds, not only with protonated N atoms, but also with hydroxy groups.

Abstract
Previous studies have revealed significant discrepancies between density functional theory (DFT)-calculated and experimental nuclear quadrupolar coupling constants (CQ) for chlorine atoms, particularly in ionic solids. Various aspects of the computations are systematically investigated here, including the choice of the DFT functional, basis set convergence, and geometry optimization protocol. The effects of fast (fs) time-scale dynamics are probed using molecular dynamics (MD) and nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) are considered using path-integral MD calculations. It is shown that the functional choice is the most important factor related to improving the accuracy of the quadrupolar coupling calculations, and that functionals beyond the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) level, such as hybrid and meta-GGA functionals, are required for good correlations with experiment. The influence of molecular dynamics and NQEs is less important than the functional choice in the studied systems. A method which involves scaling the calculated quadrupolar coupling constant is proposed here; its application leads to good agreement with experimental data.
