The NMR spectra of the proton located in a N+---H---−O bond formed in the reaction of a conjugated Schiff base (SB) with a carboxylic acid (HA) in a non-polar solvent indicate that this proton is rapidly exchanging with other protons present in the system. For this study, two SB were used: all-trans-retinylidene tert-butylamine (RBA) and trans, tran-2,4-heptadienylidene tert-butylamine (HBA), and five carboxylic acids having pKa's between 0.66 and 4.87.1H NMR spectra were taken at 293 and 233 K in CDCl3 of systems of SB:HA using different ratios of acid to SB. Results indicate that the rapid proton exchanges are temperature and concentration dependent. Finally, the results are related to the natural pigments rhodopsin and bacteriorhodopsin.

The Brönsted-Lewis superacid HSO3F-SbF5 or "magic acid" is re-investigated by modern 19F NMR methods over a wide concentration range. The system is found to be considerably more complex than had been assumed previously. A total of 13 different anions are identified of which only five have previously been identified in magic acid. With increasing SbF5 contents the concentration of monomeric anions like [SbF6]-, [SbF5(SO3F)]-, cis- and trans-[SbF4(SO3F)2]-, and mer-[SbF3(SO3F)3]- gradually decreases. Except for [Sb2F11]-, which is present in very small concentrations only, the formation of oligomers involves exclusively μ-fluorosulfato bridges. In addition to donor (SO3F)- and acceptor (SbF5) complex formation to give [SbF5(SO3F)]- and possibly ligand redistribution, the solvolysis of SbF5 or SbF4(SO3F) in HSO3F appears to be the principal formation reaction for polyfluorosulfatofluoroantimonate(V) anions. In glass (NMR tubes) the solvolysis product HF is converted to the oxonium ion [H3O]+, which has previously been identified by 1H NMR and structurally characterized as [H3O][Sb2F11] by us.Key words: magic acid, conjugate superacid, fluorosulfuric acid, 19F NMR spectra.

The seven hexahaloantimonate anions in the series [SbClnBr6−n]− have been prepared and their antimony-121 nmr spectra show that for [SbCl4Br2]−, [SbCl3Br3]−, and [SbCl2Br4]−, only the cis isomers are present in acetonitrile solution. The pairwise additivity model for central atom shielding has been used for configuration assignments. Models relevant to the higher incidence of cis over trans isomers are discussed. The nuclear shielding of 121Sb is the most sensitive to halogen substitution of all the elements whose halide chemical shifts have been studied. Antimony shieldings exhibit normal halogen dependence, with bromine substitution causing upfield shifts relative to chlorine substitution.

Solutions of SbF5 in HSO3F with xSbF5 = 0.012 to 0.405 are studied by 500 MHz 1H NMR (299 K) and 471 MHz 19F NMR (213–250 K), using NMR tubes fitted with fluoropolymer lining. The initial process during dissolution is the fast solvolysis of monomeric SbF5 in HSO3F according to SbF5 + nHSO3F [Formula: see text] SbF5 – n(SO3F)n + nHF (n = 1, 2). All HF formed during solvolysis will no longer be removed by reaction with glass, but will remain in the superacid system. Besides participation in the fast formation of various fluoro-fluorosulfato anions [SbF6 – n(SO3F)n]– (n = 0, 1, 2) and acidium ions [H2X]+(solv.) (X= F, SO3F), HF is involved in slow-exchange reactions of the type [SbF6 – n(SO3F)n]–(solv.) + HF [Formula: see text] [SbF7 – n(SO3F)n– 1]–(solv.) + HSO3F (n = 1, 2) detected because of a delay of 3 months between sample preparation and measurements and confirmed by repeating theses measurements after a further 3 months. There are three notable differences to our earlier study, affecting concentrations of the fluoro-fluorosulfato antimonate anions observed: (i) in dilute solutions [SbF6]– is formed in high concentrations (34.7–76.1%), with [Sb2F11]– now clearly detected at intermediate to high SbF5 concentrations (up to 5.8%); (ii) bis-fluorosulfato anions (cis-, trans-[SbF4(SO3F)2]–) are found in much lower concentrations only, which decrease further with time, while tris-fluorosulfato anions ([SbF3(SO3F)3]–) are now no longer observed; (iii) these reduced concentrations of poly-fluorosulfato anions in dilute solutions are responsible for the formation of fewer µ-SO3F-oligomers at lower concentrations, when more SbF5 is added. As a consequence, the HSO3F–SbF5 magic acid system is now less complex than found previously and only seven anionic species are clearly observed. Key words: superacids, antimony(V) fluoroanions, 1H NMR, 19F NMR, solvolysis.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) results are presented for several aluminum alloy samples prepared using the melt-spinning technique including orthorhombic Al6Mn, Al–Mn quasicrystals both with and without doping with Si and Ru, and a T-phase alloy of Al and Pt. With the exception of the orthorhombic material, all of the NMR spectra show a broad distribution of sites. No features unique to the quasicrystal phase are observed. For the orthorhombic material the quadrupole field parameters are found to be ∥VQ∥ − 1.0±0.1 MHz and η = 0.4±0.1.

Selenium diimides R(NSeN)R [R = tBu (1a), tOct (1b)], the eight-membered heterocycle tBuN(SeSeSe)2NtBu (2) and the aminoselenanes of the type [R(Cl3Si)N]2Se (4a,b) and [(Me3Si)2N]2Se (5) were studied by multinuclear NMR with emphasis on 15N NMR for detection of coupling constants J(77Se15N). The selenium diimides possess the largest values of 1J(77Se15N) observed so far (1a: 158.4 and 163.5 Hz; 1 b: 158.6 and 162.8 Hz). Compound 1 b was found to be much more stable than 1a, the heterocycle 2 being the major decomposition product of 1a. The selenium diimides (1a,b) react readily with hexachlorodisilane to give the bis[alkyl(trichlorosilyl)amino]selenanes 4a,b. The solid state 13C, 15N, 29Si and 77Se CP/MAS NMR spectra of bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amino]selenane (5) gave results in accord with the known crystal structure, and there is agreement with the solution state NMR data

A series of (1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4 complexes, (2-X-1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4, X = H, Me, SiMe3, GeMe3, SnMe3, PbMe3, has been prepared and characterized, and both the complexes and the free ligands studied by 1H and 13C nmr spectroscopy. The energy barrier to ring inversion in (1,3-dithiane)Fe(CO)4, ΔG298†, is 14.7 ± 0.2 kcal mol−1, some 4.4 kcal mol−1 higher than in free 1,3-dithiane.13C nmr spectra showed that within the Fe(CO)4 moiety, rapid averaging of carbonyl groups occurs down to at least −80 °C.

Multinuclear nmr (1H, 77Se, 111/113Cd, 119Sn, 199Hg, as appropriate) has been used to study Y−−EPh− exchange in Me2CO or MeCN between RnM′Y (RnM′ = Ph3Sn or MeHg; Y = Cl, Br, I, NCO, or NCS) and the adamantane-like anions [(μ-EPh)6(MEPh)4]2− (E = S, M = Zn, Cd, or Co; E = Se, M = Zn or Cd), as their tetraalkylammonium salts. Quantitative terminal substitution of the clusters occurs in most cases, giving [(μ-EPh)6(MEPh)4 − x(MY)x]2−(x = 1–4). However, reaction is incomplete for M = Cd, E = S or Se, RnM′Y = Ph3SnNCO or Ph3SnNCS and for M = Zn or Co, E = S, RnM′Y = MeHgI. Differences in the extents of reaction for Ph3SnY and MeHgY are consistent with the position of equilibrium in MeHgY:Ph3SnEPh mixtures.Group interchange provides a convenient alternative synthesis of the known halogen-substituted clusters [(μ-EPh)6(MY)4]2−(M = Zn or Cd, Y = Cl, Br, or I; M = Co, Y = Cl), and the first syntheses of [(μ-SPh)6(CoY)4]2− (Y = Br or I) and various pseudohalogen-substituted adamantanoid anions. The nuclei used for full direct nmr characterization of the new clusters in solution were: 77Se and 113Cd for [(μ-SePh)6(CdSePh)4 − x(CdY)x]2− (x = 1–4; Y = NCO or NCS); 77Se for [(μ-SePh)6(ZnSePh)4 − x(ZnY)x]2− (x = 1–4, Y = NCO or NCS); 113Cd for [(μ-SPh)6(CdSPh)4 − x(CdY)x]2−(x = 1–4; Y = NCO or NCS); 1H for [(μ-SPh)6(CoY)4]2− (Y = Br, I, NCO, or NCS). The first solution 1H nmr spectrum of [(μ-SPh)6(CoCl)4]2− is also reported.
