Title:
HYPERPOLARISING SUBSTRATES THROUGH RELAYED TRANSFER VIA SYSTEMS CONTAINING EXCHANGEABLE PROTONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/020989
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
There is described a method for the preparation of a hyperpolarised target molecule, wherein said molecule comprises at least one -OH, - NH or -SH moiety, via proton exchange from a polarisable molecule, said method comprising the steps of: • (i) preparing a fluid containing a transfer catalyst; parahydrogen; and a polarisable molecule containing at least one exchangeable proton, such as, an -OH, - NH or -SH moiety; • (ii) applying a magnetic field or radio frequency excitation such that hyperpolarisation is transferred via SABRE from parahydrogen to the polarisable molecule when bound to the magnetisation transfer catalyst; • (iii) separately or simultaneously introducing a target molecule, wherein said target molecule contains at least one -OH, -NH or - SH exchangeable proton, enabling hyperpolarisation transfer via proton exchange with the polarisable molecule.
