Popis: While many drugs and metabolites contain nitrogen, harnessing their diagnostic 15N NMR signature for their characterization is underutilized because of inherent detection difficulties. Here, we demonstrate how precise ultralow field signal amplification by reversible exchange (±0.2 mG) in conjunction parahydrogen and an iridium precatalyst of the form IrCl(COD)(NHC) with the coligand d9-benzylamine allows the naturally abundant 15N NMR signatures of pyridine, pyrazine, metronidazole, and acetonitrile to be readily detected at 9.4 T in single NMR observations through >50% 15N polarization levels. These signals allow for rapid and precise reagent quantification via a response that varies linearly over the 2-70 mM concentration range.
