Deuterium off-magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy for pure-quadrupole spectra of paramagnetic solids.

We examined a simple two-dimensional 2 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for paramagnetic solids utilizing off-magic-angle spinning (OMAS). By adding a rotor-synchronized 180° pulse to rotational echo (RE) measurement, the effect of the shift interaction was removed from the indirect dimension. The obtained pure-quadrupole spectrum could be simulated by calculating a quasi-one-dimensional NMR signal without considering the shift interaction. The sensitivity of the proposed method was compared with that of previous static NMR methods.
