To investigate the thermal and physical properties of perovskite-type (C3H7NH3)2CdCl4, its temperature-dependent chemical shifts and spin–lattice relaxation times are measured using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR), and static NMR methods. Above 300 K, two phase transitions are observed at 398 K and 538 K. Each proton and carbon in the (C3H7NH3) cation is distinguished in the MAS NMR results. The environments around 1H, 13C, and 14N do not change with temperature according to the NMR spectra. In contrast, the resonance frequency of 113Cd in the CdCl6 octahedra decreases with increasing temperature, indicating an environmental change. The uniaxial rotations for 1H and 13C have high mobility at both high and low temperatures, and these are related to the phase transitions. In addition, the molecular motion of 113Cd in the anion becomes activated upon raising the temperature.

Abstract HR-MAS NMR spectroscopy was utilized for the characterization of three cosmetic emul­sions. The emulsions had the same chemical composition and were prepared in the same way except the homogenization step. Magic angle spinning (M A S) of the emulsions was applied to improve signal resolution by eliminating susceptibility changes as well as residual dipolar interactions within the sample. Spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) were determined according to the inversion recovery technique in the temperature range of -10 °C to 40 °C to find out phase changes of the sample ingredients. 1H and 13C NMR signals of the individual components were assigned by use of different 1D and 2D NMR experiments. The HR-MAS NMR technique offers many possibilities to further investigate samples between the liquid and the solid state.

The thermal properties of organic–inorganic (CH3NH3)2CoBr4 crystals were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The phase transition and partial decomposition temperatures were observed at 460 K and 572 K. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts depend on the local field at the site of the resonating nucleus. In addition, temperature-dependent spin–lattice relaxation times (T1ρ) were measured using 1H and 13C magic angle spinning NMR to elucidate the paramagnetic interactions of the (CH3NH3)+ cations. The shortening of 1H and 13C T1ρ of the (CH3NH3)2CoBr4 crystals are due to the paramagnetic Co2+ effect. Moreover, the physical properties of (CH3NH3)2CoBr4 with paramagnetic ions and those of (CH3NH3)2CdBr4 without paramagnetic ions are reported and compared.

AbstractThe physical properties of the organic–inorganic hybrid crystals having the formula [NH3(CH2)3NH3]ZnX4 (X = Cl, Br) were investigated. The phase transition temperatures (TC; 268K for Cl and 272K for Br) of the two crystals bearing different halogen atoms in their skeletons were determined through differential scanning calorimetry. The thermodynamic properties of the two crystals were investigated through thermogravimetric analysis. The structural dynamics, particularly the role of the [NH3(CH2)3NH3] cation, were probed through 1H and 13C magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy as a function of temperature. The 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts did not show any changes near TC. In addition, the 1H spin–lattice relaxation time (T1ρ) varied with temperature, whereas the 13C T1ρ values remained nearly constant at different temperatures. The T1ρ values of the atoms in [NH3(CH2)3NH3]ZnCl4 were higher than those in [NH3(CH2)3NH3]ZnBr4. The observed differences in the structural dynamics obtained from the chemical shifts and T1ρ values of the two compounds can be attributed to the differences in the bond lengths and halogen atoms. These findings can provide important insights or potential applications of these crystals.

A soil incubated for 34 days in the absence (control) and presence (treated) of uniformly labelled 13C-glucose was dispersed using an ultrasonic probe and fractionated by sedimentation in water and a polytungstate solution of density 2.0 Mg m3 . The residual substrate carbon was concentrated in the clay and light fractions. Solid state CP/MAS 13C n.m.r. (cross polarization/magic angle spinning 13c nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy was used to characterize the chemical structure of the native soil organic carbon and the residual substrate carbon in the fractions of the control and treated soils. To obtain quantitative results it was essential to determine the spin lattice relaxation times in the rotating frame, T1pH, of the individual carbon types in the spectra as the relaxation behaviour of the native organic materials in the clay fraction was substantially different from that of the residual substrate carbon. After correcting for T1pH effects, a significant linear relationship existed between the signal intensity and 13C content of the samples. This enabled the content, expressed in �mol 13C g-1 fraction, of each type of carbon in the fractions to be calculated. The residual substrate carbon was found to accumulate in predominantly alkyl and O-alkyl structures in both fractions. However, significant amounts of acetal and carboxyl carbon were also observed in the clay fraction. Little if any aromatic or phenolic carbon was synthesized by the soil microorganisms utilizing substrate carbon. Dipolar dephasing CP/MAS 13C n.m.r. experiments were also performed and allowed the proportion of each type of carbon which was protonated and nonprotonated to be estimated. Essentially all of the O-alkyl and acetal carbon, 25-40% of the aromatic carbon and 66-80% of the alkyl carbon was protonated in the fractions isolated from the treated soil

ABSTRACTHigh temperature solid state sodium (23Na) magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spin lattice relaxation times (T1) were evaluated for a series of NASICON (Na3Zr2PSi2O12) materials to directly determine Na jump rates. Simulations of the T1 temperature variations that incorporated distributions in Na jump activation energies, or distribution of jump rates, improved the agreement with experiment. The 23Na NMR T1 relaxation results revealed that distributions in the Na dynamics were present for all of the NASICON materials investigated here. The 23Na relaxation experiments also showed that small differences in material composition and/or changes in the processing conditions impacted the distributions in the Na dynamics. The extent of the distribution was related to the presence of a disordered or glassy phosphate phase present in these different sol-gel processed materials. The 23Na NMR T1 relaxation experiments are a powerful tool to directly probing Na jump dynamics and provide additional molecular level details that could impact transport phenomena.

The solid pyridinium chloride, bromide, and iodide salts were studied using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and differential scanning calorimetry. Phase transitions were observed at 345 K for the chloride, 269 K for the bromide, and 247 K for the iodide. Well below each transition, the pyridinium ions are held rigidly in the crystal lattice, whereas above each transition the ions reorientate rapidly about an axis at right angles to the ring planes. From the temperature dependence of the spin–lattice relaxation times the high temperature phase reorientational activation energies were determined to be 1.55, 2.30, and 4.20 kcal/mol for the chloride, bromide, and iodide, respectively.
