Abstract
Herein, we investigate a novel set of polarizing agents—mixed-valence compounds—by theoretical and experimental methods and demonstrate their performance in high-field dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR experiments in the solid state. Mixed-valence compounds constitute a group of molecules in which molecular mobility persists even in solids. Consequently, such polarizing agents can be used to perform Overhauser-DNP experiments in the solid state, with favorable conditions for dynamic nuclear polarization formation at ultra-high magnetic fields.
