TECHNIQUES THAT DEAL WITH CHALLENGES IN THE SOLID STATE

To remove orientation dependence of chemical shifts: Magic-angle spinning (MAS) Magic angle:

To remove the strong 1H-13C dipolar coupling: High power decoupling

Signal intensity improvement: Cross polarization (CP)

13C MAGIC ANGLE SPINNING (MAS) NMR

8/28/2013

Samples spins at high speed (>= 3kHz) during data acquisition to achieve high resolution Direct Polarization (DP) 1H to 13C Cross

CP VS. DP 13C NMR

8/28/2013

Crystalline and amorphous signals are distinguished by different conformation and packing Orthorhombic PE: 32.8 ppm Monoclinic: 34.2 ppm Amorphous: ca. 30 ppm

CP over-represents rigid phase CP relies on strong dipolar coupling

DP over-represents mobile phase Mobile phase usually has shorter

29SI NMR

29Si in silica and zeolites usually has very long T1 Why? DP-MAS NMR often requires recycle delay of > 50s

1H-29Si CP spectrum over-represents surface Si and underrepresent inside Si Why?

CP pulse time (contact time) needs optimization It needs time for 1H signal to transfer to 29Si However, T1r relaxation happens during contact time 1H-13C CP faces the same problem

EXPERIMENT SETUP - 1

Magnet safety Will destroy watches and magnetic memories Will strongly attract iron and steel objects May harm embryos and stop heart pacemakers

Packing rotors Stand on mat while packing; don’t drop rotors on

the hard floor Do not use damaged caps

Spin the rotor Automatic vs manual mode

Page 9: Introduction to Solid State NMR (2)

EXPERIMENT SETUP - 2 Create sample file from an existing standard

file – dir; new Tuning the probe – wobb

What if no dip is visible in window Check and optimize parameters

Recycle delay Calibration of 90-deg pulse CP optimization

Pulsing safety Never misuse pulse length unit: default for

pulses are ms; delays are s
