We report an analysis of the 13C solid-state NMR chemical shift data in a series of four cocrystals involving two active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) mimics (caffeine and theophylline) and two diacid coformers (malonic acid and glutaric acid). Within this controlled set, we make comparisons of the isotropic chemical shifts and the principal values of the chemical shift tensor. The dispersion at 14.1 T (600 MHz 1H) shows crystallographic splittings in some of the resonances in the magic angle spinning spectra. By comparing the isotropic chemical shifts of individual C atoms across the four cocrystals, we are able to identify pronounced effects on the local electronic structure at some sites. We perform a similar analysis of the principal values of the chemical shift tensors for the anisotropic C atoms (most of the ring C atoms for the API mimics and the carbonyl C atoms of the diacid coformers) and link them to differences in the known crystal structures. We discuss the future prospects for extending this type of study to incorporate the full chemical shift tensor, including its orientation in the crystal frame of reference.

Beryllium-9 (9Be) quadrupolar coupling and chemical shift tensor data are reported for bis(1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-3,3,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-2-ylidene)beryllium (Be(CAAC)2). These are the first such data for beryllium in a linear dicoordinate environment. The 9Be quadrupolar coupling constant, 2.36(0.02) MHz, is the largest recorded in the solid state to date for this isotope. The span of the beryllium chemical shift tensor, 22(2) ppm, covers about half of the known 9Be chemical shift range, and the isotropic 9Be chemical shift, 32.0(0.3) ppm, is the largest reported in the solid state to our knowledge. DFT calculations reproduce the experimental data well. A natural localized molecular orbital approach has been used to explain the origins and orientation of the beryllium electric field gradient tensor. The single-crystal X-ray structure of a second polymorph of Be(CAAC)2 is also reported. Inspection of the powder X-ray diffraction data shows that the new crystal structure is part of the bulk product next to another crystalline phase. Therefore, experimental X-ray powder data for the microcrystalline powder sample and the SSNMR data do not fully match either the originally reported crystal structure (Arrowsmith et al. Nat. Chem. 2016, 8, 890–894) or the new polymorph. The ability of solid-state NMR and powder X-ray diffraction to characterize powdered samples was thus particularly useful in this work.

Solid‒state NMR spectra were recorded for 1,3-imidazolidine-2-thione, 1,3-imidazolidine-2-selenone and some of their N-substituted derivatives. Spinning side-bands of thione and selenone carbons were analysed to yield chemical shift anisotropies for these carbons. The NMR spectrum of imidazolidine-2-thione (Imt) showed some evidence for the presence of thiol tautomer. Molecular computations were carried out for Imt and its N-methyl derivative to yield relative energies of various tautomers.

Analysis of the solid-state powder 59Co NMR spectra of ten simple inorganic cobalt(III) complexes at 11.75, and in most cases, 4.7 T have permitted the assignment of specific ligand planes to ranges of values of the observed chemical shift principal components. The relevant chemical shift components were determined from the simulations of the powder line shapes. These simulations also provided the relative orientations of the chemical shift (CS) and electric field gradient (efg) tensors, as well as magnitude and asymmetry of the 59Co quadrupolar coupling. Using symmetry arguments and ab initio calculations, as appropriate or necessary, the orientations of the efg tensors in the molecular frame were deduced. This allowed the determination of the CS tensors in the molecular frame and thus assignment of the ligand planes responsible for the observed values of chemical shifts.Key words: cobalt, chemical shift, quadrupolar coupling, solid state NMR.

Cobalt-59 and nitrogen-15 NMR spectra of the nitritopentamminecobalt(III) chloride, [(NH3)5Co-ONO]Cl2, and nitropentamminecobalt(III) chloride, [(NH3)5Co-NO2]Cl2, isomers in the solid state have been obtained at several applied magnetic field strengths. The 59Co NMR line shapes indicate that both the cobalt nuclear quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ) and the span of the chemical shift tensor (Ω) decrease when the complex isomerizes from [(NH3)5Co-ONO]2+ to [(NH3)5Co-NO2]2+; CQ decreases from 23 to 10.3 MHz and Ω changes from 1650 to 260 ppm. The 15N NMR line shapes also show a significant change in the nitrogen magnetic shielding tensor upon isomerization, with Ω decreasing from 710 to 547 ppm; also, an indirect spin-spin coupling, 1J(59Co,15N) = 63 Hz, is observed in the 15N NMR spectra of the nitro isomer. The NMR parameters are rationalized based on differences in the molecular structure of the two isomers. NMR spectra have also been recorded as the isomerization progresses with time and demonstrate the practicality of the technique for the study of solid-state isomerizations.Key words: 15N, 59Co, solid-state NMR, linkage isomerization, chemical shift tensor, electric field gradient tensor.
