NMR has a wide range of applications in catalysis:
Characterization of zeolites: Solid-state NMR is used to study the structure and acidity of zeolites, which are important for various catalytic processes. Study of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs): NMR helps in understanding the structure and dynamics of MOFs, which are used as catalysts and adsorbents. Investigation of enzyme catalysis: Liquid-state NMR is used to study enzyme-substrate interactions and the mechanisms of enzymatic reactions. In situ monitoring of catalytic reactions: In situ NMR allows for the real-time observation of reaction intermediates and products, providing insights into reaction mechanisms and kinetics.
