AbstractRelaxation induced dipolar modulation enhancement (RIDME) is a valuable method for measuring nanometer-scale distances between electron spin centers. Such distances are widely used in structural biology to study biomolecular structures and track their conformational changes. Despite significant improvements of RIDME in recent years, the background analysis of primary RIDME signals remains to be challenging. In particular, it was recently shown that the five-pulse RIDME signals contain an artifact which can hinder the accurate extraction of distance distributions from RIDME time traces [as reported by Ritsch et al. (Phys Chem Chem Phys 21: 9810, 2019)]. Here, this artifact, as well as one additionally identified artifact, are systematically studied on several model compounds and the possible origins of both artifacts are discussed. In addition, a new six-pulse RIDME sequence is proposed that eliminates the artifact with the biggest impact on the extracted distance distributions. The efficiency of this pulse sequence is confirmed on several examples.

Misconclusions are corrected on Raman peak assignment and gauche-vs.-trans conformer ratio of ethylenediamine in liquid and aqueous phases. Peaks lost upon aqueous dilution are due to lost NH⋯N interactions. Both conformers exist in both phases.

The GMTKN55 benchmarking protocol introduced by [Goerigk et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2017, 19, 32184] allows comprehensive analysis and ranking of density functional approximations with diverse chemical behaviours. But this comprehensiveness comes at a cost: GMTKN55's 1500 benchmarking values require energies for around 2500 systems to be calculated, making it a costly exercise. This manuscript introduces three subsets of GMTKN55, consisting of 30, 100 and 150 systems, as `diet' substitutes for the full database. The subsets are chosen via a stochastic genetic approach, and consequently can reproduce key results of the full GMTKN55 database, including ranking of approximations.
