Abstract

The absolute orientations of the three C-13 chemical shielding tensors in the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) moiety in a PEP-model compound with known crystal structure are reported. The study uses a fully C-13-enriched polycrystalline sample of triammonium phosphoenolpyruvate monohydrate, (NH4)(3)(PEP)(H2O)-H-., and C-13 MAS NMR experiments fulfilling various different C-13 rotational-resonance conditions. The absolute C-13 chemical shielding tensor orientations are derived by iterative fitting, employing numerically exact simulations, of various rotational-resonance C-13 MAS NMR lifleshapes of the three-C-13-spin system in fully C-13-enriched (NH4)(3)(PEP)(H2O)-H-.. The implications of the results of this study for future, biochemically oriented solid-state NMR studies on the PEP moiety are outlined. (C) 2004 Elsevier SAS. All rights reserved.
