Solid coupling constants

The microwave spectrum of isothiazole shows that the molecule is planar, and enables rotational constants and NQR hyperfine coupling constants to be determined (67MI41700>. The total dipole moment was estimated to be 2.4 0.2D, which agrees with dielectric measurements. Asymmetry parameters and NQR coupling constants show small differences between the solid and gaseous states (79ZN(A)220>, and the principal dipole moment axis approximately bisects the S—N and C(4)—C(5) bonds. 

It is difficult to decide whether the discrepancy between the calculated and experimental data is due to a different conformational preference of the thietane dioxides in the liquid and the solid phase, or to the crude approximations included in the Karplus-Barfield equation. However, the relationship between vicinal coupling constants and dihedral angles appears qualitatively valid in thietane oxides and dioxides, particularly if trends instead of exact values are discussed . At any rate thietane dioxides, 1,3-dithietane dioxides and tetroxides maintain either planarity or a slightly distorted average vibrating conformation with a low barrier to ring planarity . 

Following a detailed NMR study of the 3-substituted thietane dioxides 188 it was concluded that the three-bond coupling constants can be safely used for stereochemical assignments in this series in particular the 7rih4<4Hz (Table 7, R =H, X = C) is consistent with an equatorial-equatorial interaction. This indicates an axial preference for the 3-substituent R (i.e. 188b) in both liquid and solid phases, and also suggests that the ring is puckered . 

The experimentally observed quadrupole splitting AEq for Fe in inorganic compounds, metals, and solids reaches from 0 to more than 6 mm s [30, 32]. The range of AEq for other Mossbauer isotopes may be completely different because of the different nuclear quadrupole moment Q of the respective Mossbauer nucleus, and also because the EFG values may be intrinsically different due to markedly different radial distributions of the atomic orbitals (vide infra). As Q is constant for a given isotope, variations in the quadrupole coupling constants eQV can only arise from... 

There is a second relaxation process, called spin-spin (or transverse) relaxation, at a rate controlled by the spin-spin relaxation time T2. It governs the evolution of the xy magnetisation toward its equilibrium value, which is zero. In the fluid state with fast motion and extreme narrowing 7) and T2 are equal in the solid state with slow motion and full line broadening T2 becomes much shorter than 7). The so-called 180° pulse which inverts the spin population present immediately prior to the pulse is important for the accurate determination of T and the true T2 value. The spin-spin relaxation time calculated from the experimental line widths is called T2 the ideal NMR line shape is Lorentzian and its FWHH is controlled by T2. Unlike chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants, relaxation times are not directly related to molecular structure, but depend on molecular mobility. 

Fig. 20 Variation of the fraction <5 of an electronic charge transferred from B to XY on formation of B- XY with the ionisation energy 7b of B for the series XY = 02, BrO and IO. See text for the method of determination of Si from observed XY nuclear quadrupole coupling constants. The solid curves are the functions <5 = A exp(- al ) that best fit the points for each series B- XY. Data for B- -B are nearly coincident with those of B- BrO and have been excluded for the sake of clarity...

Figure 5. Reaction probabilities for a given instance of the noise as a function of the total integration time Tint for different values of the anharmonic coupling constant k. The solid lines represent the forward and backward reaction probabilities calculated using the moving dividing surface and the dashed lines correspond to the results obtained from the standard fixed dividing surface. In the top panel the dotted lines display the analytic estimates provided by Eq. (52). The results were obtained from 15,000 barrier ensemble trajectories subject to the same noise sequence evolved on the reactive potential (48) with barrier frequency to, = 0.75, transverse frequency co-y = 1.5, a damping constant y = 0.2, and temperature k%T = 1. (From Ref. 39.)...

Rotational-echo double-resonance (REDOR)(75,79) is a new solid-state NMR technique which is sensitive to through-space carbon-nitrogen interactions between selectively 13C and 15N-enriched sites separated by up to 5A (20-22). The parameter directly measured in a REDOR experiment is the heteronuclear dipolar coupling constant DCN, which is in itself proportional to the inverse third power of the intemuclear distance, rCN. It is this dependence on (icn)3 which accounts both for REDOR s ability to accurately measure short distances and its insensitivity to longer-range interactions. As a technique which can probe, in detail, intermolecular interactions over a distance range of 5A, REDOR is well suited to studying the distribution of small selectively-labeled molecules in polymer delivery systems. 

The reaction of 2 with two equivalents of 1 yields the diphosphinosilaphosphene 6, isolated as a red-orange solid. The silicon atom shows the lowest 29Si-NMR shift ever reported (216 ppm). The two phosphino atoms show different chemical shifts and once again a high 1Jp=si coupling constant (190 Hz) is notable [5]. 

Evaluation of trends in /pp coupling constants in solid-state 31P NMR spectra of P-phospholyl-NHPs allowed one to establish an inverse relation between the magnitude ofM and P-P bond distances [45], The distance dependence of. /pp is in line with the dominance of the Fermi contact contribution, and is presumably also of importance for other diphosphine derivatives. At the same time, large deviations between lJvv in solid-state and solution spectra of individual compounds and a temperature dependence of lJ77 in solution were also detected (Fig. 1) both effects... 

Another type of DOUBLE ENDOR, called special TRIPLE , has been introduced by Dinse et al.90 to study proton hf interactions of free radicals in solution. In a special TRIPLE experiment two rf fields with frequencies vp + Av and vp — Av are swept simultaneously. For systems with Tln < T,i this leads to a considerable signal-to-noise improvement and to TRIPLE line intensities which are directly proportional to the number of nuclei with the same hf coupling constant. It should be remembered, however, that in transition metal complexes in the solid state the resonance frequencies are not, in general, symmetrically placed about the free proton frequency vp and that the condition Tln < Tj,i is not always fulfilled. 

Figure 2. The graphical representation of the solution to the charge neutrality conditions (thick dash-dotted line) and the solution to the gap equation for three different values of the diquark coupling constant (thick solid and dashed lines). The intersection points represent the solutions to both. The thin solid line divides two qualitatively different regions, A < S/i and A > S/i. The results are plotted for fi = 400 MeV and three values of diquark coupling constant Go = r/Gs with i] = 0.5, i] = 0.75, and i] = 1.0.

Figure 9. Mass - radius relations for compact star configurations with different EoS purely hadronic star with HHJ EoS (long-dashed), stable hybrid stars for HHJ - INCQM EoS with 2SC (solid) and without 2SC phase (dash-dotted) for the Gaussian formfactor. We show the influence of a tiny variation of the coupling constant Gi by the filled grey band. The difference between the models 2SC and 2SC corresponds to a shift in the bag function (see Fig. 8) 3 MeV/fm3. For comparison, observational constraints on the compactness are given from the "small compact star RX J1856.5-3754 and from the high surface redshift object EXO 0748-676 which can both be obeyed by our hybrid star EoS.
