Conformational tuning improves the stability of spirocyclic nitroxides with long paramagnetic relaxation times

Abstract Nitroxides are widely used as probes and polarization transfer agents in spectroscopy and imaging. These applications require high stability towards reducing biological environments, as well as beneficial relaxation properties. While the latter is provided by spirocyclic groups on the nitro...
