2NMR of paramagnetic molecules
The presence of unpaired electrons has profound
effects on the NMR spectra
chemical shifts can have sizeable
contributions (hyperfine shift) relaxation
rates are enhanced

22Structure calculations with pseudocontact shifts
Starting from random coil structures, the
dynamics on the dihedral angles is calculated at
decreasing temperatures as driven by the
pseudopotential constituted by all structural
constraints

The magnetic susceptibility tensor parameters are
fitted during the structure calculations no
assumption is needed
