Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data for graphenes are mainly lacking in the literature. We provide quantitative first-principles quantum-chemical calculations of NMR chemical shifts and shielding anisotropies as well as spin-spin couplings and anisotropies for increasingly large, hexagon-like fragments of graphene, hydrogenated graphene (graphane) and fluorinated graphene (fluorographene). Du...

We present calculations of solid state NMR magnetic shielding in metals, which includes both the orbital and the complete spin response of the system in a consistent way. The latter contains an induced spin-polarization of the core states and needs an all-electron self-consistent treatment. In particular, for transition metals, the spin hyperfine field originates not only from the polarization ...

The results of first-principles calculations of Al and Sc NMR shielding for a set of ScTT′Al Heusler phase compounds are reported and compared to recently published experimental NMR shifts. The orbital component of the shielding (chemical shift) is computed using density functional perturbation formalism. The spin part (Knight shift) is evaluated using a direct self-consistent approach, where a...

(a) The expectation value of a component 〈α|V̂i|α〉 remains unchanged in the rotated frame (with respect to the transformed operator), i.e., 〈α′|V̂ ′ i |α′〉 = 〈α|V̂i|α〉 where |α〉 −→ D(R)|α〉 = |α′〉 and V̂ ′ i is the operator transform. The expectation value in the two bases must be the same, because we are assuming that space is isotropic, and all physical observables and physical laws must remain in...

According to the ring current model quoted in textbooks of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the downfield chemical shifts of hydrogen nuclei in aromatic molecules is due to intense delocalized currents induced in the p-electron cloud by a magnetic field at right angles to the molecular plane. By using the Biot-Savart law, it was found that the delocalized ring currents deshield the out-...

IUPAC has published a number of recommendations regarding the reporting of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data, especially chemical shifts. The most recent publication [Pure Appl. Chem. 73, 1795 (2001)] recommended that tetramethylsilane (TMS) serve as a universal reference for reporting the shifts of all nuclides, but it deferred recommendations for several aspects of this subject. This docu...

Self-assembled capsules are hosts that recognize and surround smaller molecule guests of appropriate size, shape, and chemical surfaces. The space available inside is a cage of fixed solvent molecules, many of which are aromatic. These aromatics provide anisotropic shielding to guests, and a map of induced magnetic shielding for the inner space can be obtained through nucleus-independent chemic...

The 1H NMR spectra of a number of alkenes of known geometry were recorded in CDCl3 solution and assigned, namely ethylene, propene, 4-methylcyclohexene, 1,4-dimethylcyclohexene, methylene cyclohexane (in CFCl3 –CD2Cl2 at 153 K), 5-methylene-2-norbornene, camphene, bicyclopentadiene, styrene and 9-vinylanthracene. These results together with literature data for other alkenes, i.e. 1,3and 1,4-cyc...

Recently, we introduced a new density-functional theory ~DFT! approach for the calculation of NMR shielding constants. First, a hybrid DFT calculation ~using 5% exact exchange! is performed on the molecule to determine Kohn–Sham orbitals and their energies; second, the constants are determined as in nonhybrid DFT theory, that is, the paramagnetic contribution to the constants is calculated from...
