title: 17O magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance of CaCO3.
abstract: The first 17O magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS-NMR) from a carbonate ion in an inorganic compound is reported. The 17O MAS centreband of CaCO3 can be simulated with parameters CQ = 6.97 MHz, eta approximately 1 and an isotropic chemical shift of 204 ppm.
