Chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) generates radical electron spins with high polarization at room temperature by quenching the photo-excited state of chromophores, which is useful for microwave-free optical dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in solution. While nitroxyl (TEMPO) radicals are typically used for this purpose, we show that a tris(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-methyl (TTM) radical derivative shows greater electron spin polarization than TEMPO by CIDEP using porphyrin chromophores. This is attributed to the longer spin-lattice relaxation time of TTM radicals, with a contribution of efficient quenching of chromophore photo-excited state by energy transfer from the triplet state of porphyrins to the doublet state of the TTM radicals. The porphyrin-TTM pair shows a larger nuclear spin polarization under continuous laser excitation than the porphyrin-TEMPO pair because of the larger polarization and longer spin-lattice relaxation time of the TTM radical electron spins. This work demonstrates the first example of in-solution CIDEP and optically-driven DNP using TTM radicals, opening new opportunities in a wide range of biological and medical applications. |
