We report a complete set of high-resolution solid-state NMR spectra for all magnetic nuclei (1H, 13C, 17O, and 27Al) in the α-form of tris(2,4-pentanedionato-O,O′)aluminium(III), α-Al(acac)3. These high-resolution NMR spectra were obtained by using a host of solid-state NMR techniques: standard cross-polarization under the magic-angle spinning (CPMAS) method for 13C, 1-D homonuclear decoupling using the windowed DUMBO sequence for 1H, double-rotation (DOR) for 17O and 27Al, and multiple-quantum MAS for 27Al. Some experiments were performed at multiple magnetic fields. We show that the isotropic chemical shifts obtained for 1H, 13C, 17O, and 27Al nuclei in α-Al(acac)3 are highly resolved and accurate, regardless of the nature of the targeted nuclear spins (i.e., spin-1/2 or quadrupolar) and, as such, can be treated equally in comparison with computational chemical shifts obtained from a gauge-including projector-augmented wave (GIPAW) plane-wave pseudopotential DFT method.

We report an analysis of the 13C solid-state NMR chemical shift data in a series of four cocrystals involving two active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) mimics (caffeine and theophylline) and two diacid coformers (malonic acid and glutaric acid). Within this controlled set, we make comparisons of the isotropic chemical shifts and the principal values of the chemical shift tensor. The dispersion at 14.1 T (600 MHz 1H) shows crystallographic splittings in some of the resonances in the magic angle spinning spectra. By comparing the isotropic chemical shifts of individual C atoms across the four cocrystals, we are able to identify pronounced effects on the local electronic structure at some sites. We perform a similar analysis of the principal values of the chemical shift tensors for the anisotropic C atoms (most of the ring C atoms for the API mimics and the carbonyl C atoms of the diacid coformers) and link them to differences in the known crystal structures. We discuss the future prospects for extending this type of study to incorporate the full chemical shift tensor, including its orientation in the crystal frame of reference.

Complexes of the types [CH3Hg(aza)], [CH3Hg(Haza)]X, and [(CH3Hg)2(aza)]X are obtained by reacting CH3HgOH and/or CH3HgX (X = NO3, ClO4) with 7-azaindole (Haza). The weakly acidic N1-H proton on the pyrrole ring is displaced by the hydroxide, whereas the perchlorate and nitrate salts lead to CH3Hg+ coordination to the N7 lone pair on the pyridine ring. Detailed analysis of the infrared spectra of the complexes and their N-deuterated derivatives provides diagnostic regions for eventual prediction of the coordination mode in other systems. All compounds are characterized by means of 1H, 13C, and 199Hg NMR spectra in DMSO solution and solid-state CP-MAS 13C spectra. Comparison of the solution and solid-state 13C spectra show that the species present in the solids remain undissociated in DMSO. Each type of complex can be identified from a characteristic pattern of large displacements of the ligand 13C signals. The 1H spectra are less informative because substitution of the N1-H proton by CH3Hg+ induces only minor shifts. Metal solvation appears to have a major influence on the 13C and 199Hg chemical shifts of the CH3Hg+ groups.

ABSTRACTThe thermosetting mechanism of an organosilicon polymer containing carborane has been studied utilizing the 13and 29Si solid-state NMR method. The polymer having C≡C bonds in the main chain and CH═CH2, Si-H bonds, and carborane in the bulky side chain, shows a very highly thermal stability in air by curing. From 13C and 29Si NMR spectra of the polymer, it was found that the intermolecular cross-linking reactions of the polymer was due to (1) the diene reaction between Ph-C≡C and C≡C and (2) the addition reaction between side chain terminal and Ph-C≡C and between CH═CH2 and Si–H, and a very highly thermal stable structure is formed.
