Abstract
There is described a method for preparation of an imaging medium via transfer from a hyperpolarised singlet state that is not parahydrogen, said method comprising the steps of: (i) preparing a system containing: parahydrogen; a magnetisation transfer complex, with a molecular symmetry that allows the creation of a singlet state between spin pairs within it, said complex including a reversibly bound small molecule transference substrate; applying a magnetic field such that hyperpolarisation is transferred into the transfer complex, including the reversibly bound small molecule transference substrate; (ii) introducing a recipient complex capable of binding the small molecule transference substrate, said recipient complex including a recipient substrate, such that the recipient complex and recipient substrate, including the bound transference substrate, is hyperpolarised.
