  2. Introduction and Scope of this Course • (Mission Impossible[1]) • Spectroscopic methods that means: • ·        • NMR spectroscopy • ·        Dielectrical spectroscopy • ·        Infrared spectroscopy • ·        UV-vis spectroscopy • ·        X-ray spectroscopy • ·Mass spectroscopy • dynamic-mechanic spectroscopy [1] The topic means material for several year's courses. Consequently, this course (and text) can rather give a coarse overview and a collection of literature to go for the details. No completeness is claimed and no perfection!

  15. 2 dimensional correlation vibrational spectroscopy Samples are exposed to external pertubations such as: temperature pressure stress Resolution (the large number) of overlapping NIR bands can be enhanced and MIR and NIR correlation spectra are very useful for peak assignement

  16. NMR = No More Research?? Nobel Laureate R. R. Ernst: "It's sometimes close to magic" Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

  17. NMR can provide information about: • Polymers in Solution • The microstucture of polymer chains • Resonance assignement • regioisomerism • Stereochemical configuration • Geometric isomerism • Isomerism in diene polymers • Asymmetric centres in the main chain • Branching and cross-linking • End groups • Configurational statistics • Copolymerization sequences • Chain conformation in solution • Intermolecular association

  18. 1H: natural abundance 99.9844 % • relative sensitivity 1 • chemical shift range 10 ppm • 1H-1H-spin-spin coupling chemical environment • chemical structure, regiochemistry, stereochemistry, • conformation • 13C: natural abundance 1.108% • relative sensitivity 1.59´10-2 • Chemical shift range 250 ppm • long relaxation times • sensitive to subtle changes in the near electronic • environment but insensitive for long-range inter- • actions (solvent effects, diamagnetic anisotropy of • neighbouring groups) • no homonuclear coupling • Separate resonance for every C in a molecule But also other e. g.: Si, O, N, P, Al, Xe (!)…can be important

  26. laboratory (static) frame: coordinates x, y, z rotating frame: coordinates x’, y’, z’ rf-transmission and Detection coil (antenna)

  27. The Basic Pulse-NMR Experiment

  28. Chemical shift and Structure • branching in PE • thermal oxidation in PE • stereoregularity e.g. PMMA, PP • directional isomerism (regio-isomerism: head-tail,…) • copolymer structure

  29. Structure Determination • comparison of the chemical shift with known model-compounds • calculation of 13C-shifts by the (additive) increment method • synthesis of polymers with known structure or compositional features • selective 13C-enrichment • comparison of experimental results with calculated intensities • (simulation of the polymerisation kinetics) • determination of C-H bonds (INEPT)*, C-C bonds (INADEQUATE)* • 2-dimensional techniques * These are specific pulse sequences for particular spectral editing

  30. z=z’ B0 w0 m rotating frame y’ B1 y X’ static laboratory frame x Rotating Frame “The concept of the rotating frame is of paramount importance in NMR-spectroscopy. For almost all classical descriptions of NMR- experiments are described using this frame of reference” D. E. Traficante the frame is rotating with the frequency of the applied rf-field a nucleus with the Larmor frequency equal to the rotation of the frame is static with respect to the frame Q

  31. Relaxation • the original focussed and in-phase in the x-y plane rotating magnetisation • decreases by two effects: • interaction with the environment (“the lattice”) • Relaxation time T1 (spin-lattice relaxation, longitudinal relaxation) • interaction with neighbouring spins (dephasing) • Relaxation time T2 (spin-spin relaxation, transversal relaxation) Mz(t)-Mz(t=0) ~ exp [-t/T1] My(t)-My(t=0) ~ exp [-t/T2] the “effective” T2 (T2*) is responsible for the line broadening (transversal relaxation + inhomogeneous field broadening): 1/2= 1/(T2*) 1/2= line-width at ½ of the peak-height [Hz] T1 is the longitudinal relaxation time in the rotating frame. T1 >T1

  32. 13C-Relaxations in solids and in solutions of high polymers: T1>>T2 non-viscous liquids T1 = T2 T1sensitive to motions 5-500 MHz*) T2 is affected by molecular motion at the Larmor frequency and low-frequency motions around 102-103 Hz T1 is sensitive to motions in the tens kHz-range *)short range, high frequency segmental motions, local environment is reflected

  33. Spin echos dephasing 90°-pulse 180°-pulse slow fast fast slow Re-focussing re-focussed and echo only the “inhomogeneous”contribution of the T2is refocus= sed the result of the “true” T2-process is not re-focussed the echo decays according to the true T2

  34. Exchange Processes Direct chemical exchange (e. g.: the hydroxyl proton of an alcohol with water protons) Magnetization exchange (e. g.: cross-polarization, NOE)

  35. Decoupling of heteronuclear spin coupling causes the NUCLEAR OVERHAUSER EFFECT (NOE) Decoupling 1H-13C saturates 1H and changes the 13C-spin population excess 13C in the lower level compared with the equilibrium distribution more energy is absorbed better S/N DE = 1 + (gH/2gC) NOE depends on the specific resonance makes quantification difficult The Nuclear Overhauser-Effect (NOE) The NOE is sensitive to the distance  NOESY experiment

  36. Solid State Interaction The total Hamilton operator is given by the sum of the individual interactions:  = z + q + dd +  + k + J z = zeeman interaction with the external magnetic field (constant term) q = quadrupol interaction dd = direct dipolar interaction  = magnetic shielding (chemical shift) reflects the chemical environment k = knight shift J = indirect coupling zq ddkJ

  40. Solid-State NMR Broad lines …but line shape can also tell us a lot narrow is beautiful

  41. 2D-Experiments can be useful: • for the separation of shifts and scalar couplings in isotropic phase • in particular in weakly coupled homo-and heteronuclear systems • in oriented phase, especially in static powders or magic-angle spinning • samples information can be extracted by separation of dipolar • couplings and anisotropic chemical shifts that cannot be obtained (easily) • from 1D-spectra • isotropic and anisotropic chemical shift components can be • separated in two frequency domains in the solid state

  42. separate different interactions (shifts, couplings) • Correlate transitions of coupled spins • Study dynamic processes (chemical exchange, cross-relaxation, • transient Overhauser effects, spin diffusion…) 2D-Experiments can be designed to

  43. 2-dimensional*) NMR In fact projections (contour plots) of 3D-spectra The many possible experiments can be categorised as: molecular connectivities, distances • correlated 2D-NMR • exchange 2D-NMR • resolved 2D- NMR molecular motion, environment interactions Advantage over e. g. decoupling: no loss of information, just unravelling of overlapping signals *) and higher

  44. collect incremented FIDs 2D-NMR Spectroscopy • The properties and motions of a spin system are represented by the • Hamilton Operator H*) • When H contains contributions of different physical origin • (e. g.: chemical shift, dipolar or scalar couplings…) • it is sometimes possible • to separate these effects in a multi-dimensional plot preparation evolution mixing detection • system is prepared in a coherent non-equilibrium state • System evolves under the influence • of what ever modification (pulse sequence) • Transformation into transversal magnetization • Measurement of the transversal magnetization *) in fact in NMR a reduced Hamiton spin operator Hs is sufficient

  45. Important Types of 2-D NMR Experiments and Their Information

J-coupling 2D-spectra, if the spins are modulated By spin-spin, chemical shift or dipole-dipole Interactions during the evolution time Coupling resolved spectra: y- axis coupling information x- axis  chem shift information Coupling correlated spectra: y- axis chem shift information x- axis  chem shift information correlated through homo-or heteronuclear or dipolar coupling Exchange spectra: y- axis chem shift information x- axis chem shift information correlated through chemical exchange, conformational or motional effects, or Overhauser effects from non-bonded H

  47. sampling of the magnetization components protons arrange according to their phases controlled by their individual chemical shift COSY-experiment Evolution: -t1- -t2 diagonal: all auto-correlated H off-diagonal: cross-correlated H with another H, shows connectivities
