Many magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agents are Gd(III)-based; its half-filled f-shell has an S-ground state and hence a long electronic relaxation time, leading to comparably large effects on 1/T1 and 1/T2 of water protons with no shift in the water-proton resonance frequency. 1/T1 and 1/T2 nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion (NMRD) profiles of the Dy(III) aquo ion and its chelates have been reported recently. Dy(III) ions differ magnetically from Gd(III); the large spin-orbit interaction of its non-S-ground state reduces the electronic relaxation time 100-fold, and can have a large effect on proton 1/T2 and resonance frequency. Relaxation theory is well-developed and applicable to both ions but, for Dy(III), the phenomena are more wide-ranging. Recent interpretations have suggested that the data are anomolous, requiring a new mechanism for their explanation. The authors explain published Dy(III) data in terms of known theory, guided by experience with Gd(III) agents.
