Introduction:
1) NOE (Nuclear Overhauser Effect).
2) NOESY (Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy).
-:NOE ( Nuclear Overhauser Effect):-
Is a phenomenon in which the signal of H is affected by the
another H close in space when it is irradiated
Interaction in the space through dipolar coupling
Not through physical connection
Not through J coupling
The distance of 5 – 6 0 A
This coupling arises due to the dipolar interaction between the
two spins close in the space ( through space effect)
Not exact distance.
This method used to determine the proximity between the two
spins that will helps to determine the structure of the
compound.
For structural determination of biomolecules. Kathbutrick get
the Nobel prize because he pioneered the use of NOESY for
structural determination of biomolecules.
1) NOESY (Nuclear Overhauser Effect Spectroscopy):-
The NOESY has a base in the NOE and is a 2D version of this
experiment which protons in a molecule are in close proximity.
Its spectrum is particularly useful to assign the relative
stereochemistry ( cis and trans)
The NOESY spectrum of a poly peptide that shows proton 2 &
5 close space.
The intensity of cross peak in 2D NOESY is related to the distance
between two protons :-
I α 1/ r6
Thus, from the intensity ( volume) of the peak the distance can
be estimated
Because of the 1/r6 , the intensity falls rapidly with increase in
distance.
Exact valve cannot be estimated accurately from intensity.
However , to known the approximate distance , a known distance
between two atoms in the molecule and the corresponding
intensity of cross peak between two atoms is taken as reference
I/I ref α r6 ref / r6
Relation of intensity cross peak with mixing time
The sufficient mixing delay / optimal delay is given for transfer
of magnetization
Too much delay or less delay will interrupt the intensity of the
cross peak.
I α mixing time
when too long mixing time is used , cross peak
between two atoms > 5-60 A can appear due to spin
diffusion.
This can cause the wrong distance between two atoms
Hence mixing time has carefully chosen to avoid the
spin diffusion peaks.
150-300ms for small molecules, 60-100ms for proteins.
Applications
The NOESY experiment helps to determine the
proximity between the protons in space.
Its spectrum is particularly useful to assign the
relative stereochemistry ( cis and trans)
This will helps in structural determination of
biomolecules.
