What Are Some Commonly Studied Nuclei in Solid State NMR for Catalysis?
Several nuclei are commonly studied in solid state NMR for catalysis: - ¹³C NMR: Used to study carbon-containing compounds adsorbed on catalysts. - ²⁹Si NMR: Useful for investigating silicon-based materials such as zeolites. - ²⁷Al NMR: Important for examining aluminum sites in aluminosilicates. - ¹H NMR: Provides information about hydrogen atoms, including those in hydroxyl groups and adsorbed water. - ¹⁷O NMR: Offers insights into oxygen species in oxides and other oxygen-containing catalysts.
