The static 13C nmr powder pattern for solid ammonium thiocyanate is analyzed to obtain the 13C chemical shielding anisotropy, 321 ± 7 ppm, and the 13C–14N dipolar splitting, 1295 ± 25 Hz. Slow magic angle spinning 15N nmr experiments are analyzed to obtain a nitrogen chemical shielding anisotropy of 415 ± 15 ppm. The 13C–14N dipolar splitting leads to an effective C—N bond length of 1.19 ± 0.01 Å, in good agreement with the value of 1.176 Å reported from accurate X-ray and neutron crystallographic studies. In solid NH4NCS absolute values of the average shielding constants [Formula: see text] and ct[Formula: see text] are 52 and 34 ppm, respectively. Comparison of calculated and observed [Formula: see text] values indicates that intermolecular interactions decrease the 13C and 15N shielding constants by approximately 10 and 30 ppm, respectively.

Phosphorus-31 NMR static powder spectra and high-resolution magic angle spinning spectra have been obtained for a new heterocyclic compound, cis-2,10-dimethyl[1,2,3]benzothiadiphospholo[2,3b][1,2,3]benzothiadiphosphole (1), which contains a P(III)—P(III) single bond. The homonuclear 31P–31P dipolar interaction manifests itself in both the magic angle spinning spectra and the non-spinning line shape. Under the AX spin pair approximation, analysis of the spinning sidebands in the MAS experiment yields a full characterization of the two 31P chemical shielding tensors. This approximation is confirmed by the exact powder line shape simulation for a homonuclear spin pair. Analysis of the dipolar subspectra also yields the absolute sign of 1J(P,P), which is found to be negative. Keywords: phosphorus–phosphorus single bond, chemical shielding tensors, dipolar NMR, MAS, static line shape.

Direct NMR observation of copper-63/65 nuclei in solid K3Cu(CN)4 provides the first experimental example of anisotropic copper chemical shielding. Axially symmetric by virtue of the space group symmetry, the shielding tensor spans 42 ppm, with the greatest shielding when the unique axis is perpendicular to the applied magnetic field. The nuclear quadrupole coupling constant is also appreciable, CQ(63Cu) = -1.125 MHz, reflecting a deviation of the Cu(CN)43- anion from pure tetrahedral symmetry. Spin-spin coupling to 13C nuclei in an isotopically enriched sample is quantified by line-shape simulations of both 13C and 63/65Cu magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra to be 300 Hz. It is shown that this information is also directly available by 63/65Cu triple-quantum (3Q) MAS NMR. The relative merits of these three approaches to characterizing spin-spin couplings involving half-integer quadrupolar nuclei are discussed. Chemical shielding tensors for nitrogen-15 and carbon-13 are obtained from NMR spectra of non-spinning samples, and are compared to those of tetrahedral group 12 tetracyanometallates. Finally, 2J(63/65Cu,15N) detected in 15N MAS experiments are found to be 19 and 20 Hz for the two crystallographically distinct cyanide ligands.Key words: NMR, quadrupolar nucleus, chemical shielding tensor, multiple-quantum magic-angle spinning, metal cyanide, spin-spin coupling.

The X-ray crystal structure determination of bis[-(phenylcyanamido)bis(triphenylphosphine)copper(I)], [{Cu(PPh3)2(C6H5NCN)}2], (1) is reported. The complex has a centrosymmetric dimeric structure with the phenylcyanamide ligands bridging the copper atoms in a -1,3-fashion. The structure is compared with that of the 4-methylphenylcyanamido complex, [{Cu(PPh3)2(4-MeC6H4NCN)}2] (2), and the differences observed in the Cu–P bond lengths compared with changes in the solid state 31P cross-polarization magic-angle spinning (CPMAS) spectra of the two complexes.

Spin Spin Coupling

The solid-state 119Sn cross-polarization (CP) magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra of a series of triaryltin chlorides of the form Ar3SnCl have been acquired. The indirect spin-spin coupling constants (J(119Sn-35Cl)), quadrupolar-dipolar shifts (d(119Sn-35Cl)), and the 119Sn chemical shift tensors were extracted. For the spectrum of triphenyltin chloride (I) the validity of the first-order perturbation approximation was tested by comparing results of both the perturbation and cubic-equation approaches and a variable-temperature NMR study undertaken to investigate the influence of the previously reported molecular motion in the solid. The X-ray crystal structures of the tris(o-tolyl)tin chloride (II) and tris(p-tolyl)tin chloride (IV) complexes have been examined. They belong to the monoclinic and triclinic space groups P21/n and P[Formula: see text], respectively, which are different from the previously reported tris(m-tolyl)tin chloride (III) complex, which crystallizes in the space group R3 and has threefold molecular symmetry. The structures and NMR properties of the complexes with meta-substituents are quite different from those with ortho- or para-substituents having axially symmetric shift tensors with small spans and larger J values.Key words: aryltin chlorides, magic angle spinning NMR, tin-chlorine spin-spin coupling, 119Sn chemical shift tensor, crystal structure.
