Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are used to predict 1H NMR T1 relaxation of water from paramagnetic Gd3+ ions in solution at 25 °C. Simulations of the T1 relaxivity dispersion function r1 computed from the Gd3+–1H dipole–dipole autocorrelation function agree within ≃8% of measurements in the range f0 ≃ 5 ↔ 500 MHz, without any adjustable parameters in the interpretation of the simulations, and without any relaxation models. The simulation results are discussed in the context of the Solomon-Bloembergen-Morgan inner-sphere relaxation model, and the Hwang-Freed outer-sphere relaxation model. Below f0 ≲ 5 MHz, the simulation overestimates r1 compared to measurements, which is used to estimate the zero-field electron-spin relaxation time. The simulations show potential for predicting r1 at high frequencies in chelated Gd3+ contrast-agents used for clinical MRI.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
