were recorded on a Varian Unity Inova DDR spectrometer
(599.9 MHz for 1H) with a 5 mm 1H{13C/31P–15N} pulse field gradient triple
resonance probe head at 298.15 ± 0.1 K. The solvent was H2O/D2O 95:5 (V/V), and the ionic strength was adjusted
to 0.15 mol/L with KCl. The pH values were adjusted with HCl or NaOH
and determined in situ by internal indicator molecules (having ca.
1 mmol/L concentration) optimized for 1H NMR.25 (link),26 (link) The sample volume was 550 μL (containing ca. 5 mmol/L titrand
substance), and every sample contained ca. 1 mmol/L DSS (3-(trimethylsilyl)propane-1-sulfonate)
as chemical shift reference. The H2O 1H signal
was suppressed with a presaturation sequence; the average acquisition
parameters for 1H measurements are number of transients
= 16, number of points = 65 536, acquisition time = 3.33 s, and
relaxation delay = 1.5 s.
