Nuclear Spin Relaxation in Viscous Liquids: Relaxation Stretching of Single-Particle Probes
2021
Spin-lattice relaxation rates R1(ω,T), probed via high-field and field-cycling nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), are used to test the validity of frequency-temperature superposition (FTS) for the reorientation dynamics in viscous liquids. For several liquids, FTS is found to apply so that master curves can be generated. The susceptibility spectra are highly similar to those obtained from depolarized light scattering (DLS) and reveal an excess wing. Where FTS works, two approaches are suggested to access the susceptibility: (i) a plot of deuteron R1(T) vs the spin-spin relaxation rate R2(T) and (ii) a plot of R1(T) vs an independently measured reference time τref(T). Using single-frequency s…
Exchange Coupling in Cyano-Bridged Homodinuclear Cu(II) and Ni(II) Complexes: Synthesis, Structure, Magnetism, and Density Functional Theoretical St…
2001
The synthesis and structural characterization of several new cyano-bridged copper(II) and nickel(II) homodinuclear complexes is presented. The measure of magnetic properties for these complexes is complemented with a computational study of the exchange coupling for several model structures representing this family of compounds. The influence of several factors on the coupling constant has been examined, coordination position occupied by the bridging ligand, distortions of the coordination environment, and relative disposition of the cyanide ion with respect to the M-M vector. Comparison of experimental and calculated coupling constants allows for the rationalization of the most relevant fea…
“Through-space” nuclear spin–spin couplings in ferrocenyl polyphosphanes and diphosphino cavitands: A new way of gathering structural information in …
2009
Abstract Nuclear magnetic resonance is an invaluable technique for investigating a variety of important issues ranging from the determination of molecular structure to therapeutic medical imaging. In this respect, the indirect nuclear spin–spin coupling involving common nuclei such as 1 H, 13 C or 31 P provides, via the J constant, conclusive data for compound characterization in solution. This electron-mediated nuclear spin coupling is usually regarded as being transmitted by covalently bonded magnetic atoms. However, several experimental and theoretical studies, first focused on constrained organofluorides, and more recently devoted to phosphane ligands highlighted the existence of very i…
A DFT study of the Karplus-type dependence of vicinal 3J(Sn-C-X- C), X=N,O,S, in organotin(iv) compounds: Application to conformationally flexible sy…
2010
ZORA relativistic and non-relativistic DFT protocols have been used to investigate vicinal coupling constants, (3)J(Sn-C-X-C), in several organotin(iv) compounds, with particular emphasis on cyclic alpha-aminoorganostannanes. The dependence of the coupling constant on the heteroatom X (X = N,O,S) in the coupling path, and, for X = N, its substituents, has been studied in detail. The electron-withdrawing strength of the N-substituents has been found to strongly affect the magnitude and shape of the Karplus-type curve. The results obtained for the simple model systems, having no or little conformational flexibility, have helped in rationalizing the data concerning real flexible cyclic systems…
1H NMR and IR spectra of methyl dichloropropanoates and butanoates
1981
Abstract Methyl dichloropropanoates and butanoates were synthesized and their 1H NMR and IR spectra were studied. Comparisons were made with the spectral characteristics of corresponding monochlorocompounds. Special attention was given to the elucidation of the characteristic spectral features associated with particular chlorine substitution patterns. The 1H NMR of erythro and threo methyl 2,3-dichlorobutanoates were analyzed using a computer program MAOCON, a modified LAOCOON 3 program. In the spectrum of the threo form the order of the chemical shifts of protons on asymmetric carbons seems to be opposite to that reported in earlier literature. Also vicinal coupling constants J23 were foun…
O Triclusters Revisited: Classical MD and Quantum Cluster Results for Glasses of Composition (Al2O3)2(SiO2).
2005
The (17)O NMR spectrum of CaAl(2)Si(2)O(8) glass shows two types of O sites that are not present in the crystalline material. One of these, with (17)O NMR parameters C(Q) = 2.3 MHz and delta = +20 ppm, has been assigned to a "tricluster" O, a local geometry in which the O is coordinated to three tetrahedrally coordinated atoms, either Al or Si. For crystalline CaAl(4)O(7), a tricluster site (with three Al linkages to O, i.e., OAl(3)) has been characterized experimentally, with a C(Q) of 2.5 MHz and a delta of about +40 ppm. Thus, a C(Q) value of 2.5 MHz or less seems to be a characteristic of such sites, although they may show a range of delta values. However, several different quantum chem…
Syntheses and Structural Study of Novel Tetranuclear Bis(phenoxido)‐Bridged Cu II Metal–Organic Macrocycles
2012
Six new tetranuclear copper(II) complexes were prepared exploiting novel ditopic alkylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraphenolate ligands. The geometrical parameters of the compounds can be varied by introducing different solvents of crystallization into the lattice. The structures of all six complexes were determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and the magnetic properties of the complexes were estimated by computational DFT calculations. The relationship between the magnetic exchange coupling constant (J) and the Cu–O–Cu angle (θ) in these bis(phenoxido)-bridged complexes was investigated and a magnetostructural correlation was established between J and the θ angle. All studied …
Scaling behaviour of non-hyperbolic coupled map lattices
2006
Coupled map lattices of non-hyperbolic local maps arise naturally in many physical situations described by discretised reaction diffusion equations or discretised scalar field theories. As a prototype for these types of lattice dynamical systems we study diffusively coupled Tchebyscheff maps of N-th order which exhibit strongest possible chaotic behaviour for small coupling constants a. We prove that the expectations of arbitrary observables scale with \sqrt{a} in the low-coupling limit, contrasting the hyperbolic case which is known to scale with a. Moreover we prove that there are log-periodic oscillations of period \log N^2 modulating the \sqrt{a}-dependence of a given expectation value.…
Effective-Lagrangian formulation of generalized vector dominance. II
1975
As in a preceding paper we generalize the Lagrangian of Lee and Zumino to include several mutually interacting vector mesons. The treatment is more general in the sense that all possible interactions between the vector mesons, compatible with the field-current proportionality relations, are now discussed. It is moreover demonstrated that also the fields corresponding to the physical vector mesons satisfy a field-current proportionality relation of exactly the same form. Comparison of the different schemes and their implications for the magnetic moments of the vector mesons are discussed.
13C NMR study of some polychloro-isobutane and -isobutene compounds
1984
The 13C chemical shifts and the carbon–proton coupling constants have been determined for some chlorinated isobutane and isobutene compounds. The one-bond coupling constants in isobutane derivatives showed a regular increase with an increasing number of γ-chlorine substituents. The three-bond coupling constant of the methyl carbon decreased from 4.2 to 2.0 Hz as the number of chlorine substituents in the γ-position increased. In the isobutene compounds, the vicinal coupling of C-1 was larger to protons in a group that is trans with respect to a chlorine substituent on C-1 than to those in the corresponding group cis to the chlorine. The vicinal coupling constants between atoms in geminal gr…
