Abstract

SO what? Spectral features caused by relativistic effects on chemical shift tensors are not always looked for in solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Slow-rotation 29Si magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR measurements on the triad [ClTM(μ-mt)4SiCl] (TM=Pt, Pd, Ni; mt=2-mercapto-1- methylimidazolide) reveal that heavy-atom spin-orbit (SO) coupling has a dramatic impact on the 29Si NMR spectral peak shape.
