Abstract
Molecular hydrogen has two nuclear-spin modifications called ortho and para. Because of the symmetry restriction with respect to permutation of the two protons, the ortho and para isomers take only odd and even values of the rotational quantum number, respectively. The ortho-to-para conversion is promoted in condensed systems, to which the excess rotational energy and spin angular momentum are transferred. We review recent studies on fast ortho-to-para conversion of hydrogen in molecular chemisorption and matrix isolation systems, discussing the conversion mechanism as well as rotational-relaxation pathways.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202213581. [PMID: 36526582 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202213581] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Hyperpolarized orthohydrogen (o-H2 ) is a frequent product of parahydrogen-based hyperpolarization approaches like signal amplification by reversible exchange (SABRE), where the hyperpolarized o-H2 signal is usually absorptive. We describe a novel manifestation of this effect wherein large antiphase o-H2 signals are observed, with 1 H enhancements up to ≈500-fold (effective polarization PH ≈1.6 %). This anomalous effect is attained only when using an intact heterogeneous catalyst constructed using a metal-organic framework (MOF) and is qualitatively independent of substrate nature. This seemingly paradoxical observation is analogous to the "partial negative line" (PNL) effect recently explained in the context of Parahydrogen Induced Polarization (PHIP) by Ivanov and co-workers. The two-spin order of the o-H2 resonance is manifested by a two-fold higher Rabi frequency, and the lifetime of the antiphase HP o-H2 resonance is extended by several-fold.

Abstract
We explore the origin of the anomalous splitting of the 101 levels reported experimentally for the H2 O@C60 endofullerene, in order to give some insight about the physical interpretations of the symmetry breaking observed. We performed fully-coupled quantum computations within the multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree approach employing a rigorous procedure to handle such computationally challenging problems. We introduce two competing physical models, and discuss the observed unconventional quantum patterns in terms of anisotropy in the interfullerene interactions, caused by the change in the off-center position of the encapsulated water molecules inside the cage or the uniaxial C60 -cage distortion, arising from noncovalent bonding upon water's encapsulation, or exohedral fullerene perturbations. Our results show that both scenarios could reproduce the experimentally observed rotational degeneracy pattern, although quantitative agreement with the available experimental rotational levels splitting value has been achieved by the model that considers an uniaxial elongation of the C60 -cage. Such finding supports that the observed symmetry breaking could be mainly caused by the distortion of the fullerene cage. However, as nuclear quantum treatments rely on the underlying interactions, a decisive conclusion hinges on the availability of their improved description, taken into account both endofullerene and exohedral environments, from forthcoming highly demanding electronic structure many-body interaction studies.

Abstract
The following conference report considers hydrogen gases with odd and even rotational quantum number as two separate gases, the ortho and para varieties which do not interconvert in absence of a catalyst. The physical catalysis of hydrogen is interpreted in terms of symmetry breakings introduced by the solid to pass round the peculiar selection rules of the molecular hydrogen assigned by the Pauli Principle. The catalytic effect presents the striking effect of reducing drastically the interconversion time, longer than the age of the universe for isolated molecules, to a few seconds or minutes when an hydrogen sample (gaseous or liquid) is brought into contact with an efficient catalyst. In the present report, the variety of new optical and electronic devices, measurements and interpretations that have been reported since the turning of the new century are reviewed. New experiments on non-magnetic catalysts measuring hydrogen conversion on the time scales of one-ten minutes turned upside down the previous theory, established in 1933, of the absolute necessity of a magnetic catalyst to break the Pauli Principle. The o-p catalyzed reaction is discussed for hydrogen molecules adsorbed on electric surfaces, or in confining porous structures or inside nanocages. New concepts and new electromagnetic conversion channels that interpret these experimental renewals are described in terms of how the hydrogen nuclei feel the solid-molecule electron cloud complex. The described channels differentiate one another owing to the catalyst and owing to the electronic path followed in the configuration space by the o-p reaction.

Abstract
We introduce an efficient quantum fully coupled computational scheme within the multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) approach to handle the otherwise extremely costly computations of translational-rotational-vibrational states and energies of light-molecule endofullenes. Quantum calculations on energy levels are reported for a water molecule inside C60 fullerene by means of such a systematic approach that includes all nine degrees of freedom of H2O@C60 and does not consider restrictions above them. The potential energy operator is represented as a sum of natural potentials employing the n-mode expansion, along with the exact kinetic energy operator, by introducing a set of Radau internal coordinates for the H2O molecule. On the basis of the present rigorous computations, various aspects of the quantized intermolecular dynamics upon confinement of H2O@C60 are discussed, such as the rotational energy level splitting and the significant frequency shifts of the encapsulated water molecule vibrations. The impact of water encapsulation on quantum features is explored, and insights into the nature of the underlying forces are provided, highlighting the importance of a reliable first-principles description of the guest-host interactions.

Abstract
Hydrogen molecules exist in the form of two distinct isomers that can be interconverted by physical catalysis. These ortho and para forms have different thermodynamical properties. Over the last century, the catalysts developed to convert hydrogen from one form to another, in laboratories and industries, were magnetic and the interpretations relied on magnetic dipolar interactions. The variety concentration of a sample and the conversion rates induced by a catalytic action were mostly measured by thermal methods related to the diffusion of the o-p reaction heat. At the turning of the new century, the nature of the studied catalysts and the type of measures and motivations completely changed. Catalysts investigated now are non-magnetic and new spectroscopic measurements have been developed. After a fast survey of the past studies, the review details the spectroscopic methods, emphasizing their originalities, performances and refinements: how Infra-Red measurements characterize the catalytic sites and follow the conversion in real-time, Ultra-Violet irradiations explore the electronic nature of the reaction and hyper-frequencies driving the nuclear spins. The new catalysts, metallic or insulating, are detailed to display the operating electronic structure. New electromagnetic mechanisms, involving energy and momenta transfers, are discovered providing a classification frame for the newly observed reactions.

Abstract
An open-cage fullerene incorporating phosphorous ylid and carbonyl group moieties on the rim of the orifice can be filled with gases (H2 , He, Ne) in the solid state, and the cage opening then contracted in situ by raising the temperature to complete an intramolecular Wittig reaction, trapping the atom or molecule inside. Known transformations complete conversion of the product fullerene to C60 containing the endohedral species. As well as providing an improved synthesis of large quantities of 4 He@C60 , H2 @C60 , and D2 @C60 , the method allows the efficient incorporation of expensive gases such as HD and 3 He, to prepare HD@C60 and 3 He@C60 . The method also enables the first synthesis of Ne@C60 by molecular surgery, and its characterization by crystallography and 13 C NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
We implemented a systematic procedure for treating the quantal rotations by including all translational and vibrational degrees of freedom for any triatomic bent molecule in any embedded or confined environment, within the MCTDH framework. Fully coupled quantum treatments were employed to investigate unconventional properties in nanoconfined molecular systems. In this way, we facilitate a complete theoretical analysis of the underlying dynamics that enables us to compute the energy levels and the nuclear spin isomers of a single water molecule trapped in a C60 fullerene cage. The key point lies in the full 9D description of both nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom, as well as a reliable representation of the guest-host interaction. The presence of occluded impurities or inhomogeneities due to noncovalent interactions in the interfullerene environment could modify aspects of the potential, causing significant coupling between otherwise uncoupled modes. Using specific n-mode model potentials, we obtained splitting patterns that confirm the effects of symmetry breaking observed by experiments in the ground ortho-H2O state. Further, our investigation reveals that the first rotationally excited states of the encapsulated ortho- and para-H2O have also raised their 3-fold degeneracy. In view of the complexity of the problem, our results highlight the importance of accurate and computational demanding approaches for building up predictive models for such nanoconfined molecules.

Abstract
Small amounts of water enriched in oxygen-17 were studied by 17O and 1H NMR in binary gaseous mixtures with Xe, Kr, CHF3 and CH3F and CO2. The distinct linear dependences of 17O and 1H chemical shifts and 1J(17O,1H) spin-spin coupling on the density of every gas solvent were measured. After the extrapolation of experimental results to zero density the relevant parameters in the isolated H217O molecule were determined. The same procedure was applied for H216O when its proton chemical shift was analyzed but the secondary isotope effect in the 1H shielding of H217O and H216O molecules was too small for detection. As shown, all the intermolecular effects in nuclear magnetic shielding are negative and these effects are more significant for 17O nuclei than for protons. It is consistent with the appropriate gas-to-liquid shifts of water which also indicate deshielding effects for both the investigated nuclei. On the other hand, the 1J0(17O,1H) coupling constant in H217O, which is completely free from intermolecular interactions, considerably differs from the 1J(17O,1H) experimental values obtained for water in liquid solutions. The present experimental data of the isolated H217O molecule are compared with selected results of shielding and spin-spin coupling calculations available from the literature and with the recent experimental data for a water molecule encapsulated in the C60 fullerene. Additionally, on the basis of actual results the magnetic dipole moment of the 17O nucleus is revalued for greater accuracy.

Abstract
The 17 O isotopomer of the water-endofullerene H2 O@C60 displays a remarkable proton NMR spectrum, with six well resolved peaks. These peaks are due to the J-coupling between the water protons and the 17 O nucleus, which has spin-5/2. The resolution of these peaks is enabled by the suppression of water proton exchange by the fullerene cage. The six peaks display an unusual pattern of linewidths, which we model by a Liouville-space treatment of scalar relaxation due to quadrupolar relaxation of the 17 O nuclei. The data are consistent with rotational diffusion of the water molecules on the sub-picosecond timescale.
