Description
Summary:Signal Amplification by Reversible Exchange (SABRE) is a relatively simple and fast hyperpolarization technique that has been used to hyperpolarize the α-ketocarboxylate pyruvate, a central metabolite and the leading hyperpolarized MRI contrast agent. In this work, we show that SABRE can readily be extended to hyperpolarize 13C nuclei at natural abundance on many other α-ketocarboxylates. Hyperpolarization is observed and optimized on pyruvate (P13C=17%) and 2-oxobutyrate (P13C=25%) with alkyl chains in the R-group, oxaloacetate (P13C=11%) and alpha-ketoglutarate (P13C=13%) with carboxylate moieties in the R group, and phenylpyruvate (P13C=2%) and phenylglyoxylate (P13C=2%) with phenyl rings in the R-group. New catalytically active SABRE binding motifs of the substrates to the hyperpolarization transfer catalyst-particularly for oxaloacetate-are observed. We experimentally explore the connection between temperature and exchange rates for all of these SABRE systems and develop a theoretical kinetic model, which is used to fit the hyperpolarization build-up and decay during SABRE activity.
