High-resolution solid-state 119Sn and 195Pt NMR studies of MPtSn semiconductors (M = Ti, Zr, Hf, Th)

Abstract:
Solid-state 119Sn and 195Pt magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra are reported on a series of MPtSn compounds (M = Ti, Zr, Hf, Th). In favorable cases (TiPtSn and ZrPtSn) the spectra reveal expected J-coupling patterns originating from indirect spin coupling between Pt and Sn nuclei. MAS has no effect on the broad and asymmetric spectra of either 119Sn and 195Pt nuclei in HfPtSn.

The internal reference compound generally used in NMR spectroscopy is tetramethylsilane (TMS). TMS is preferred because it is chemically inert, soluble in NMR solvents, and easily removable. Also, the highly shielded methyl protons in TMS yield an intense...
