Abstract

An overview of relativistic theoretical methods to calculate NMR parameters (nuclear magnetic shielding and indirect spin-spin coupling) of molecules with heavy nuclei is presented. Computational benchmark data and a number of case studies are discussed, with emphasis on first-principles methods (wavefunction-based ab initio methods or density functional theory). The chapter also contains a brief section about relativistic computations of electric field gradient (EFG) tensors.
