A Practical Review of NMR Lineshapes for Spin-1/2 and Quadrupolar Nuclei in Disordered Materials

Abstract: NMR is a powerful spectroscopic method that can provide information on the structural disorder in solids, complementing scattering and diffraction techniques. The structural disorder in solids can generate a dispersion of local magnetic and electric fields, resulting in a distribution of isotropic chemical shift δiso and quadrupolar coupling CQ. For spin-1/2 nuclei, the NMR linewidth and shape under high-resolution magic-angle spinning (MAS) reflects the distributions of isotropic chemical shift, providing a r… Show more

“…Therefore, to increase the excitation bandwidth, QCPMG combined with a frequency-stepped method was used to collect individual spectra at evenly spaced transmitter offset-frequency intervals of ±166 kHz (γB 1 ). The overall 115 In NMR spectrum was then obtained by superimposing each individual spectrum. ,, On comparing the fluorine-free and fluorinated samples, it can be seen that the In local environment becomes more disordered after F – -doping, indicated by the smeared-out edges of the quadrupolar lineshape (Figure c) and the significantly broadened spectral linewidth (Figure d), which implies an increase in the quadrupolar coupling constant ( C Q ), in complete agreement with literature. , This result is consistent with EXAFS, MD simulation, and TEM results (vide infra).…”

“…However, the explanations made in the first 2 paragraphs of the discussion section show that the high 1/T2 and R2-relaxivity values in question are not related to the magnetic field inhomogeneity, but due to the additional contributions caused by different relaxation mechanisms. These mechanisms should be chemical exchange between H and D, spin rotation, and the indirect involvement of quadruple relaxation [32,34,[39][40][41].The use of CDCl3 as a solvent in experiments allows different relaxation mechanisms to be involved [32]. Therefore, the high 1/T2 and R2 values obtained at the 400 MHz NMR frequency are in line with our expectations.…”

“…As shown in the 27 Al MQMAS spectrum for TMP-treated C-ZSM-5 in Figure a, three main signals are clearly separated, denoted Al IV,a , Al IV,b , and Al V , which are marked in blue, red, and green, respectively. The green signal centers at (33, 40) and can be assigned to penta-coordinated Al species (Al V ) due to its characteristic 27 Al chemical shift around the 30–40 ppm region. , The blue and red signals correspond to tetrahedrally coordinated Al species Al IV,a and Al IV,b , possessing small and large C Q values, respectively, indicated by the narrow and broad/horizontal patterns along the F 2 dimension as has been demonstrated clearly in the literature. , It should be noted that although the chemical shift of Al IV,b in the indirect dimension appears at ca. 70 ppm, its actual δ iso is around 59 ppm (but clearly with chemical shift/quadrupolar shift distributions due to the broad spectral pattern) as shown in a typical analysis of quadrupolar parameters in Figure S5, indicating that the aluminum in the TMP-Lewis acid adduct is tetrahedrally coordinated, which accounts for the assignment of this species as Al IV .…”
