摘要：

Rotational-echo double-resonance (REDOR) C-13 NMR spectra (with F-19 dephasing) have been obtained of 6-fluorotryptophan complexed by a polymeric amphiphilic nanosphere consisting of a polystyrene core covalently attached to a poly(acrylic acid)-polyacrylamide shell. The REDOR spectra show that aromatic carbons from the polystyrene core and oxygenated carbons in the poly(acrylic acid)-polyacrylamide shell are both proximate to the F-19 of 6-fluorotryptophan. Molecular modeling restrained by distances inferred from the REDOR spectra suggests that all of the 6-fluorotryptophans are in the shell but within 10 Angstrom of the core-shell interface.
