Preferred Label : spin label;
IUPAC acronym : ESR;
IUPAC definition : A stable paramagnetic group (typically a nitryl radical) that is attached to a part
of a molecular entity whose microscopic environment is of interest and may be revealed
by the electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of the spin label. When a simple paramagnetic
molecular entity is used in this way without covalent attachment to the molecular
entity of interest it is frequently referred to as a 'spin probe'.;
