CP/MAS /sup 13/C NMR spectroscopic study of chlorophyll a in the solid state

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5672856

Solid-state cross-polarization, magic-angle sample spinning carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra have been recorded on chlorophyll a- water aggregates, methyl pyrochlorophyllide a and methyl pyropheophorbide a (derivatives that lack a phytyl chain). Spectra have also been collected under a decoupling regime in which resonances of certain hydrogen-bearing carbon atoms are suppressed. These observations are used to assign the solid state spectra.
