Abstract The successive phase transitions of [Mg(H2O)6][SiF6] were studied by measuring 2H NMR spectra. The quadrupole coupling constant e2Qq/h and asymmetry parameter η changed drastically at each transition temperature. 1,2H and 19F NMR Tl were measured for this compound to study the relation between the molecular motions and the successive phase transitions. The activation energy Ea and the pre-exponential factor τ0 for the reorientation of [SiF6]2- were estimated as 28 kJmol-1 and 6.0 x 10-14 s, and those of the 180° flip of H2O as 33 kJmol-1 and 4.0x 10-14 s. These two motions occur rapidly even in phase V. For the reorientation of [Mg(H2O)6]2+ , Ea = 62 kJmol-1 and τ0 = 1.1 x 10-16 s were obtained from the simulation of 2H NMR spectra. The jump rate of this motion is of the order of 104 -106 s-1 in phase II. These results suggest that the successive phase transitions are closely related to the motion of [Mg(H2O)6]2+ .

The 71Ga NMR spectra of Ga[GaX4] melts and of solutions in benzene and other hydrocarbons show discrete sharp GaI and broad GaIII resonances. In the light of recent structure determinations, the solution GaI signals must be attributed to bis(arene)Ga+ complexes in which the gallium atom is η6-bonded to the hydrocarbons. The low line widths and strong high field shifts are attributed to an almost spherical shielding of the metal nucleus by the 4 s2 electrons. Solid state 69Ga and 71Ga NMR spectra of Ga[GaCl4] crystalline powder show only Ga1 resonances. While the 71GaI line is rather narrow, the 69GaI line has a complex fine structure. Consistent with the crystal structure of Ga[GaCl4], the Ga1 ion is calculated to have a very low quadrupole coupling constant e2q Q/h = 1.7 ± 0.1 MHz and an asymmetry parameter η = 0.44. Experimental and simulated line shapes (using literature models) are in satisfactory agreement, implying that the 69Ga signal splitting is due to second order quadrupolar effects for the central m = + 1/2 ⇋ - 1/2 transition. The analogous splitting of the 71Ga NMR line is too small to be detected.

The NQR nutation method to determine the electric field gradient asymmetry parameter η in systems, where the resonance line is so broad that the radio frequency field can excite only a portion of the nuclear spins, is presented. In this situation, the recently developed spectroscopic methods are not applicable. Two-dimensional nutation NQR spectra of oriented powders are calculated and used to determine η at particular frequencies along a broad NQR line. The proposed method is useful for single crystals, oriented powders, glasses, and disordered systems even for small values of the asymmetry parameter. Therefore it can be used to evaluate fluctuations in η and the quadrupole coupling constant e2qQ due to inhomogeneities. We demonstrate the application of this method to oriented chalcogenide semiconducting glasses.

Based on the calculated electric field gradient (q) from ab initio Cl wavefunctions with largebasis set (including ƒ functions on N and d functions on H) and the experimental nuclearquadrupole coupling constant (e Q q) for nitrogen in NH3, an improved value o f the quadrupole moment of 14N is proposed as Q (14N ) = 2.08 x 10-26cm2. The value calculated using a wavefunctionnear the Hartree-Fock limit enlarged ≈ 10% by the Cl treatment.

The quadrupole splittings in the deuterium NMR spectrum from single crystals of deuterated sodium Perchlorate monohydrate, NaClO4-D2O, have been measured at 25 °C and - 55 °C. At room temperature, the 180° flip frequency of the D2O molecules is large compared to the difference between the splittings for the two deuterons. The average quadrupole coupling constant (e2 q Q/h) and asymmetry parameter η are 134.1(4) kHz and 0.621(5), respectively. At -55 °C, the electric field gradient tensors for each of the two deuterons were observed corresponding to slowly flipping water molecules, and e2 qQ/h and η for the two deuterons are 231.5(6) and 226.7(6) kHz and 0.196(4) and 0.195(5), respectively. The results indicate that the hydrogen positions in NaClO4-H2O are dynamically disordered

Single crystal 1H- and 2H-XMR spectra of Na2ZnCl4 · 3 H2O and Xa2ZnCl4 · 3 D2O, respectively, were studied. The following results have been obtained: The positions of the hydrogens and deuterons are described in the space group C23v- P 31m with one formula unit in the unit cell. The point positions are: HI(DI) in 3m: x = 0.455 ± 4, y = 0, z = 0.556 ± 5; HII(DII) in 3m: x = 0.675 ± 4, y = 0, z = 0.466 ± 5. The angle H-O -H (D-O-D) is 107.0° and the H-H distance is 1.603 + 3 Å. Including dynamical corrections, the equilibrium positions are: HI(DI) : x = 0.459 ± 4, y - 0, z = 0.550 ± 5; HII(DII): x = 0.669 ± 4, y = 0, z = 0.464 ± 5. The H-H distance is then 1.537 ± 5 Å. From the 2H-NMR the nuclear quadrupole coupling constant of the deuterons is at T = 22 °C: e2qQ/h = 132.0 ± 1.0 kHz; η = 0.754 ± 5. The major principal axis of the electric field gradient tensor is perpendicular to the twofold axis of the molecule D2O. At T = -25 °C for the two deuteron atoms of one molecule D2O, the values (e2qQ/h)I = 239.7 ± 1.0 kHz; ηI = 0.118 ± 2; (e2qQ/h)II = 235.9 ± 1.0 kHz; ηII = 0.125 ± 2 have been found. Here the intermediate principal axis of the FGT is perpendicular to the H-O-H plane. The direction cosines of the FGTs have been determined. The activation energy for the flipping process was found to be 12.7 kcal. mol-1. The possible hydrogen bonds O-H…Cl are discussed.

In the layered compound LiC6polarized β-active 8Li probe nuclei were produced by captureof polarized thermal neutrons. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 8Li were recorded via theβ-radiation asymmetry. The 8Li quadrupole coupling constant e2qQ/h , measured in the temperature range T = 5 . .. 500 K decreases with increasing 7 from 45.2(8) to 22.8(4) kHz.Anomalies in the overall temperature dependence are discussed in terms of phase transitionsproposed for LiC6.

Abstract The crystal structures of glycyl-l-alanine hydrobromide monohydrate, 1, and glycyl-l-alanine hydroiodide monohydrate, 2, were determined and the temperature dependence of the 127I NQR frequencies was investigated in the temperature range 77 <̳T/K <̳ 370. The 127I NQR frequencies are strongly influenced by hydrogen bonds and this is proved by the frequency shift of the H ⇄ D exchange. By deuteration the nuclear quadrupole coupling constant e2 qQh−1(127I) of 2 is shifted downwards 2.72 MHz at room temperature. The title compounds are isotype, and at room temperature they crystallize monoclinic with the space group C22 − P21 with two molecules in the unit cell. The lattice constants for 1 are a = 1068.7 pm, b = 614.1 pm, c = 762.0 pm, and β= 108.55° and for 2 are a = 1093.3 pm, 6 = 637.1 pm, c = 770.9 pm, and β= 107.29°.

Abstract The Quadrupole Coupling Constant e2qQ and Asymmetry Parameter η of fluorine for fluorine-substitute methane compounds are calculated using the Hartree-Fock Roothaan procedure. Our results are compared with experimental data from measurements by the Time Differential Perturbed Angular Distribution (TDPAD) technique using excited 19F* (spin 5/2) nuclei. The theoretical e2qQ’s for the 19F* nuclei in the fluoromethanes are in good agreement with experimental results. For CH2F2 and CHClF2 molecules, where finite η are expected from symmetry considerations, our results for η are small, 0.12 and 0.05 respectively, in agreement with experimental observation. Besides the 19F* coupling constants associated with the C-F bonds in fluoromethanes, additional interesting NQI parameters, close to those in solid hydrogen fluoride, are observed in the TDPAD measurements. It is demonstrated through investigations of the total energies and electric field gradients that these additional NQI parameters for the fluoromethanes can be explained by a HF* molecule hydrogen-bonded through the hydrogen to a fluorine atom in the host molecular systems. This complexing of an ionic molecule to the host molecules in organic solids containing strongly electronegative atoms is expected to be a general feature in both implantation and conventional techniques.

Abstract The temperature dependence of 14N NQR, measured at 77 to 300 K, is in better agreement with the model proposed by Blinc et al. than the Bayer theory. The nuclear quadrupole coupling constant and asymmetry parameter show a discontinuity at about 160 K and 230 K, respectively. The linewidths are broadened at these temperatures up to 22 kHz and 18 kHz, respectively. These results indicate that KNO2 undergoes phase transitions at these two temperatures.
