Reintroducing anisotropic interactions in magic-angle-spinning NMR of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei: 3D MQMAS.
Selective reintroduction of anisotropic interactions such as the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) and homonucler dipolar (HMD) coupling were implemented in a high-resolution NMR spectroscopy for half-integer quadrupolar nuclei. Rotary resonance recoupling (R(3)) combined with the multiple-quantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) in a three-dimensional (3D) experiment provides not only site-specific high-resolution spectra to yield the quadrupolar interaction parameters but also the CSA or HMD interaction parameters. This 3D experiment provides an avenue for the complete local structural information of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei. Three-dimensional MQMAS experiments incorporating R(3) of HMD and CSA interactions were demonstrated on model compounds containing (11)B, (23)Na, and (87)Rb nuclei.
