Abstract
Chemical function is directly related to the spatial arrangement of atoms. Consequently, the determination of atomic-level three-dimensional structures has transformed molecular and materials science over the past 60 years. In this context, solid-state NMR has emerged to become the method of choice for atomic-level characterization of complex materials in powder form. In the following we present an overview of current methods for chemical shift driven NMR crystallography, illustrated with applications to complex materials.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy (ssNMR) can provide details about the structure, host-guest/guest-guest interactions and dynamic behavior of materials at atomic length scales. A crucial use of ssNMR is for the characterization of zeolite catalysts that are extensively employed in industrial catalytic processes. This review aims to spotlight the recent advancements in ssNMR spectroscopy and its application to zeolite chemistry. We first review the current ssNMR methods and techniques that are relevant to characterize zeolite catalysts, including advanced multinuclear and multidimensional experiments, in situ NMR techniques and hyperpolarization methods. Of these, the methodology development on half-integer quadrupolar nuclei is emphasized, which represent about two-thirds of stable NMR-active nuclei and are widely present in catalytic materials. Subsequently, we introduce the recent progress in understanding zeolite chemistry with the aid of these ssNMR methods and techniques, with a specific focus on the investigation of zeolite framework structures, zeolite crystallization mechanisms, surface active/acidic sites, host-guest/guest-guest interactions, and catalytic reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
The distributions of heteroatoms within zeolite frameworks have important influences on the locations of exchangeable cations, which account for the diverse adsorption and reaction properties of zeolite catalysts. In particular for aluminosilicate zeolites, paired configurations of aluminum atoms separated by one or two tetrahedrally coordinated silicon atoms are important for charge-balancing pairs of H+ cations, which are active for methanol dehydration, or divalent metal cations, such as Cu2+, which selectively catalyze the reduction of NOx, both technologically important reactions. Such paired heteroatom configurations, however, are challenging to detect and probe, due to the typically nonstoichiometric compositions and nonperiodic distributions of aluminum atoms within aluminosilicate zeolite frameworks. Nevertheless, distinct configurations of paired framework aluminum atoms are unambiguously detected and resolved in solid-state 2D 27Al-29Si and 29Si-29Si NMR spectra, which are sensitive to the local environments of covalently bonded 27Al-O-29Si and 29Si-O-29Si moieties, respectively. Specifically, two H+-chabazite zeolites with the same bulk framework aluminum contents are shown to have different types and populations of closely paired aluminum species, which correlate with higher activity for methanol dehydration. The methodologies and insights are expected to be broadly applicable to analyses of heteroatom sites, their distributions, and adsorption and reaction properties in other zeolite framework types.

Abstract
The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shift tensor is a highly sensitive probe of the electronic structure of an atom and furthermore its local structure. Recently, machine learning has been applied to NMR in the prediction of isotropic chemical shifts from a structure. Current machine learning models, however, often ignore the full chemical shift tensor for the easier-to-predict isotropic chemical shift, effectively ignoring a multitude of structural information available in the NMR chemical shift tensor. Here we use an equivariant graph neural network (GNN) to predict full 29Si chemical shift tensors in silicate materials. The equivariant GNN model predicts full tensors to a mean absolute error of 1.05 ppm and is able to accurately determine the magnitude, anisotropy, and tensor orientation in a diverse set of silicon oxide local structures. When compared with other models, the equivariant GNN model outperforms the state-of-the-art machine learning models by 53%. The equivariant GNN model also outperforms historic analytical models by 57% for isotropic chemical shift and 91% for anisotropy. The software is available as a simple-to-use open-source repository, allowing similar models to be created and trained with ease.

Abstract
Zeolites have been game-changing materials in oil refining and petrochemistry over the last 60 years and have the potential to play the same role in the emerging processes of the energy and environmental transition. Although zeolites are crystalline inorganic solids, their structures are not perfect and the presence of defect sites - mainly Brønsted acid sites and silanols - influences their thermal and chemical resistance as well as their performances in key areas such as catalysis, gas and liquid separations and ion-exchange. In this paper, we review the type of defects in zeolites and the characterization techniques used for their identification and quantification with the focus on diffraction, spectroscopic and modeling approaches. More specifically, throughout the review, we will focus on silanol (Si-OH) defects located within the micropore structure and/or on the external surface of zeolites. The main approaches applied to engineer and heal defects and their consequences on the properties and applications of zeolites in catalysis and separation processes are highlighted. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of silanol defect engineering in tuning the properties of zeolites to meet the requirements for specific applications are presented.

Abstract
Zeolite crystals offering a short diffusion pathway through the pore network are highly desired for a number of catalytic and molecule separation applications. Herein, we develop a simple synthetic strategy toward reducing the thickness along the b-axis of MFI-type crystals, thus providing a short diffusion path along the straight channel. Our approach combines preliminary aging and a fluoride-assisted low-temperature crystallization. The synthesized MFI crystals are in the micrometer-size range along the a- and c-axis, while the thickness along the b-axis is a few tens of nanometers. The synthesis parameters controlling the formation of platelike zeolite are studied, and the factors controlling the zeolite growth are identified. The synthesis strategy works equally well with all-silica MFI (silicalite-1) and its Al- and Ga-containing derivatives. The catalytic activity of platelike ZSM-5 in the methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) reaction is compared with a commercial nanosized ZSM-5 sample, as the platelike ZSM-5 exhibits a substantially extended lifetime. The synthesis of platelike MFI crystals is successfully scaled up to a kilogram scale.

Abstract
Microporous materials have attracted a rapid growth of research interest in materials science and the multidisciplinary area because of their wide applications in catalysis, separation, ion exchange, gas storage, drug release, and sensing. A fundamental understanding of their diverse structures and properties is crucial for rational design of high-performance materials and technological applications in industry. Solid-state NMR (SSNMR), capable of providing atomic-level information on both structure and dynamics, is a powerful tool in the scientific exploration of solid materials. Here, advanced SSNMR instruments and methods for characterization of microporous materials are briefly described. The recent progress of the application of SSNMR for the investigation of microporous materials including zeolites, metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, porous aromatic frameworks, and layered materials is discussed with representative work. The versatile SSNMR techniques provide detailed information on the local structure, dynamics, and chemical processes in the confined space of porous materials. The challenges and prospects in SSNMR study of microporous and related materials are discussed.

Abstract
A detailed examination of aqueous Si complexation by alditols and aldonic acids was conducted using high-sensitivity 29Si NMR spectroscopy of isotopically enriched solutions combined with theoretical modeling. Contrary to previous thinking, we have established that aliphatic polyols do not require a threo pair of hydroxy groups to form hypercoordinated Si complexes, although formation constants may be orders of magnitude higher if they are present. Thirteen distinctly different molecular assemblages containing 4-, 5-, or 6-coordinate Si centers have been identified, with significant concentrations of 5-coordinate Si bis-ligand complex being detected even under biologically relevant solution conditions.

Abstract
Vicinal scalar couplings (3 J) are extensively used for the conformational analysis of organic compounds in the liquid state through empirical Karplus equations. In contrast, there are no examples of such use for the structural investigation of solids. With the support of first principles calculations, we demonstrate here that 13 C-13 C 3 J coupling constants (3 JCC ) measured on a series of isotopically enriched solid amino acids and sugars can be related to dihedral angles by a simple Karplus-like relationship, and we provide a parameterized Karplus function for the conformational analysis of organic molecular crystals. Under the experimental conditions discussed, torsional angles can be estimated from the experimental 3 JCC values with an accuracy of 10° using this function. These results open new perspectives towards the use of 3 JCC as a new analytical tool that could considerably simplify structure determination of functional organic solids.

Mesostructured MFI zeolite nanosheets are established to crystallize non-topotactically through a nanolayered silicate intermediate during hydrothermal synthesis. Solid-state 2D NMR analyses, with sensitivity enhanced by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), provide direct evidence of shared covalent 29 Si-O-29 Si bonds between intermediate nanolayered silicate moieties and the crystallizing MFI zeolite nanosheet framework.

Abstract
Silicate hydration is prevalent in natural and technological processes, such as, mineral weathering, glass alteration, zeolite syntheses and cement hydration. Tricalcium silicate (Ca3SiO5), the main constituent of Portland cement, is amongst the most reactive silicates in water. Despite its widespread industrial use, the reaction of Ca3SiO5 with water to form calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) still hosts many open questions. Here, we show that solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of (29)Si-enriched triclinic Ca3SiO5 enable the quantitative monitoring of the hydration process in terms of transient local molecular composition, extent of silicate hydration and polymerization. This provides insights on the relative influence of surface hydroxylation and hydrate precipitation on the hydration rate. When the rate drops, the amount of hydroxylated Ca3SiO5 decreases, thus demonstrating the partial passivation of the surface during the deceleration stage. Moreover, the relative quantities of monomers, dimers, pentamers and octamers in the C-S-H structure are measured.

Abstract
Boron heteroatom distributions are shown to be significantly different in two closely related layered borosilicates synthesized with subtly different alkylammonium surfactant species. The complicated order and disorder near framework boron sites in both borosilicates were characterized at the molecular level by using a combination of multi-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy techniques and first-principles calculations. Specifically, two-dimensional (2D) solid-state J-mediated (through-bond) (11)B{(29)Si} NMR analyses provide direct and local information on framework boron sites that are covalently bonded to silicon sites through bridging oxygen atoms. The resolution and identification of correlated signals from distinct (11)B-O-(29)Si site pairs reveal distinct distributions of boron heteroatoms in layered borosilicate frameworks synthesized with the different C16H33N(+)Me3 and C16H33N(+)Me2Et structure-directing surfactant species. The analyses establish that boron atoms are distributed non-selectively among different types of silicon sites in the layered C16H33N(+)Me3-directed borosilicate framework, whereas boron atoms are preferentially incorporated into incompletely condensed Q(3)-type sites in the C16H33N(+)Me2Et-directed borosilicate material. Interestingly, framework boron species appear to induce framework condensation of their next-nearest-neighbor silicon sites in the C16H33N(+)Me3-directed borosilicate. By comparison, the incorporation of boron atoms is found to preserve the topology of the C16H33N(+)Me2Et-directed borosilicate frameworks. The differences in boron site distributions and local boron-induced structural transformations for the two surfactant-directed borosilicates appear to be due to different extents of cross-linking of the siliceous frameworks. The molecular-level insights are supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which show the distinct influences of boron atoms on the C16H33N(+)Me3- and C16H33N(+)Me2Et-directed borosilicate frameworks, consistent with the experimental observations.

Abstract
In this contribution, we have explored the potential and strength of one-dimensional (1D) (29)Si and two-dimensional (2D) (29)S-(29)Si and (29)Si-(17)O NMR as invariants of non-oriented graph for fingerprinting zeolite frameworks. 1D and 2D (29)Si NMR can indeed provide indications on the graph vertices, edges and allow the construction of the adjacency matrix, i.e. the set of connections between the graph vertices. From the structural data, hypothetical 1D (29)Si and 2D (29)Si-(29)Si NMR signatures for 193 of the zeolite frameworks reported in the Atlas of Zeolite Structures have been generated. Comparison between all signatures shows that thanks to the 1D (29)Si NMR data only, almost 20% of the known zeolite frameworks could be distinguished. Further NMR signatures were generated by taking into account 2D (29)Si-(29)Si and (29)Si-(17)O correlations. By sorting and comparison of all the NMR data, up to 80% of the listed zeolites could be unambiguously discriminated. This work indicates that (i) solid-state NMR data indeed represent a rather strong graph invariant for zeolite framework, (ii) despite their difficulties and costs (isotopic labeling is often required, the NMR measurements can be long), (29)Si and (17)O NMR measurements are worth being investigated in the frame of zeolites structure resolution. This approach could also be generalized to other zeolite-related materials containing NMR-measurable nuclides.

Abstract
Unambiguous measurement of homonuclear scalar couplings (J) in multi-spin scalar network systems is not straightforward. Further, the direct measurement of J-couplings is obscured in solid-state samples due to the dipolar and chemical shift anisotropy (CSA)-dominated line broadening, even under the magic angle spinning (MAS). We present a new multiple frequency selective spin-echo method based on Hadamard matrix encoding, for simultaneous measurement of multiple homonuclear scalar couplings (J) in the solid-state. In contrast to the Hadamard encoded selective excitation schemes known for the solution-state, herein the selectivity is achieved during refocusing period. The Hadamard encoded refocusing scheme concurrently allows to create the spin-spin commutation property between number of spin-pairs of choice in uniformly labelled molecules, which, therefore avoids (1) the repetition of the double selective refocusing experiments for each spin-pair and (2) the synthesis of expensive selective labelled molecules. The experimental scheme is exemplified for determining (1)JCC and (3)JCC values in (13)C6l-Histidine.HCl molecule, which are found to be in excellent agreement with those measured in conventional double frequency selective refocusing mode as well as in the solution-state. This method can be simply extended to 2D/3D pulse schemes and be applied to small bio-molecular solids.

Abstract
Current developments of NMR crystallography as well as some recent applications to diamagnetic inorganic solids are presented. First, we illustrate how solid-state NMR data can be used in combination with diffraction data for the determination of the periodic part of the crystal structures, from the space group selection, to the structure determination over the refinement and validation processes. As ss-NMR, contrary to diffraction (powder and single-crystal), is not restricted to periodic boundary conditions, ss-NMR data can be used to further complete the structural description of materials, including studies of local order/disorder, etc. This illustrated through examples, which are shown and discussed in the second part of this review.

Abstract
Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enhanced solid-state NMR spectroscopy at 9.4 T is demonstrated for the detailed atomic-level characterization of commercial pharmaceutical formulations. To enable DNP experiments without major modifications of the formulations, the gently ground tablets are impregnated with solutions of biradical polarizing agents. The organic liquid used for impregnation (here 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane) is chosen so that the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is minimally perturbed. DNP enhancements (ε) of between 40 and 90 at 105 K were obtained for the microparticulate API within four different commercial formulations of the over-the-counter antihistamine drug cetirizine dihydrochloride. The different formulations contain between 4.8 and 8.7 wt % API. DNP enables the rapid acquisition with natural isotopic abundances of one- and two-dimensional (13)C and (15)N solid-state NMR spectra of the formulations while preserving the microstructure of the API particles. Here this allowed immediate identification of the amorphous form of the API in the tablet. API-excipient interactions were observed in high-sensitivity (1)H-(15)N correlation spectra, revealing direct contacts between povidone and the API. The API domain sizes within the formulations were determined by measuring the variation of ε as a function of the polarization time and numerically modeling nuclear spin diffusion. Here we measure an API particle radius of 0.3 μm with a single particle model, while modeling with a Weibull distribution of particle sizes suggests most particles possess radii of around 0.07 μm.

Abstract
A five-channel ((1)H, (19)F, (31)P, (27)Al, (13)C) 2.5 mm magic-angle-spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe is used in combination with three separate receivers for the parallel acquisitions of one (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) NMR spectra in model fluorinated aluminophosphate and porous Al-based metal-organic framework (MOF). Possible combinations to record simultaneously spectra using this set-up are presented, including (i) parallel acquisitions of quantitative 1D NMR spectra of solids containing nuclei with contrasted T1 relaxation rates and (ii) parallel acquisitions of 2D heteronuclear NMR spectra. In solids containing numerous different NMR-accessible nuclei, the number of NMR experiments that have to be acquired to get accurate structural information is high. The strategy we present here, i.e. the multiplication of both the number of irradiation channels in the probe and the number of parallel receivers, offers one possibility to optimize this measurement time.

Abstract
A general protocol is demonstrated for determining the structures of molecularly ordered but noncrystalline solids, which combines constraints provided by X-ray diffraction (XRD), one- and two-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and first-principles quantum chemical calculations. The approach is used to determine the structure(s) of a surfactant-directed layered silicate with short-range order in two dimensions but without long-range periodicity in three-dimensions (3D). The absence of long-range 3D molecular order and corresponding indexable XRD reflections precludes determination of a space group for this layered silicate. Nevertheless, by combining structural constraints obtained from solid-state (29)Si NMR analyses, including the types and relative populations of distinct (29)Si sites, their respective (29)Si-O-(29)Si connectivities and separation distances, with unit cell parameters (though not space group symmetry) provided by XRD, a comprehensive search of candidate framework structures leads to the identification of a small number of candidate structures that are each compatible with all of the experimental data. Subsequent refinement of the candidate structures using density functional theory calculations allows their evaluation and identification of "best" framework representations, based on their respective lattice energies and quantitative comparisons between experimental and calculated (29)Si isotropic chemical shifts and (2)J((29)Si-O-(29)Si) scalar couplings. The comprehensive analysis identifies three closely related and topologically equivalent framework configurations that are in close agreement with all experimental and theoretical structural constraints. The subtle differences among such similar structural models embody the complexity of the actual framework(s), which likely contain coexisting or subtle distributions of structural order that are intrinsic to the material.

Abstract
Silica aerogels possess a variety of unique and remarkable properties, but the mechanisms of silicon alkoxide, Si(OR)(4), hydrolyses and oligomerization in the initial stage of sol-gel processes are still not well understood. On the basis of density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set level, the hydrolysis and oligomerization reactions of Si(OR)(4) in neutral, acidic, and alkaline solutions were systematically investigated and we found that in acidic solutions the precursor Si(OCH(3))(4) was inclined to hydrolyze rather than to condense and the hydrolysis processes were energetically more favorable than the neutral ones. In alkaline solutions, the hydrolysis products oligomerize through an S(N)1 dimerization mechanism and the condensation rates are fast to form denser colloidal aerogels. Our calculations also testify that the subsequent cyclization reactions are energetically unfavorable.

Abstract
Absolute values of (79) geminal (2)J((29) Si-O-(29)Si) couplings were measured in an extensive series of (55) unstrained siloxanes dissolved in chloroform-d. Signs of (2)J((29)Si-O-(29)Si) in some (9) silicon hydrides were determined relative to (1)J((29)Si-(1)H) which are known to be negative. It is supposed that positive sign of the (2)J((29)Si-O-(29)Si) coupling found in all studied hydrides is common to all siloxanes. Theoretical calculations for simple model compounds failed to reproduce this sign and so their predictions of bond length and angle dependences cannot be taken as reliable. Useful empirical correlations were found between the (2)J((29)Si-O-(29)Si) couplings on one side and the total number m of oxygen atoms bonded to the silicon atoms, sum of (29)Si chemical shifts or product of (1)J((29)Si-(13)C) couplings on the other side. The significance of these correlations is briefly discussed.

Charpentier T. The PAW/GIPAW approach for computing NMR parameters: a new dimension added to NMR study of solids. SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2011; 40:1-20. [PMID: 21612895 DOI: 10.1016/j.ssnmr.2011.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 235] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2011] [Revised: 04/24/2011] [Accepted: 04/25/2011] [Indexed: 05/18/2023]
Abstract
In 2001, Mauri and Pickard introduced the gauge including projected augmented wave (GIPAW) method that enabled for the first time the calculation of all-electron NMR parameters in solids, i.e. accounting for periodic boundary conditions. The GIPAW method roots in the plane wave pseudopotential formalism of the density functional theory (DFT), and avoids the use of the cluster approximation. This method has undoubtedly revitalized the interest in quantum chemical calculations in the solid-state NMR community. It has quickly evolved and improved so that the calculation of the key components of NMR interactions, namely the shielding and electric field gradient tensors, has now become a routine for most of the common nuclei studied in NMR. Availability of reliable implementations in several software packages (CASTEP, Quantum Espresso, PARATEC) make its usage more and more increasingly popular, maybe indispensable in near future for all material NMR studies. The majority of nuclei of the periodic table have already been investigated by GIPAW, and because of its high accuracy it is quickly becoming an essential tool for interpreting and understanding experimental NMR spectra, providing reliable assignments of the observed resonances to crystallographic sites or enabling a priori prediction of NMR data. The continuous increase of computing power makes ever larger (and thus more realistic) systems amenable to first-principles analysis. In the near future perspectives, as the incorporation of dynamical effects and/or disorder are still at their early developments, these areas will certainly be the prime target.

Abstract
Solid state NMR spectroscopy applied to the science of crystalline micro- and mesoporous silica materials over the past 10 years is reviewed. A survey is provided of framework structure and connectivity analyses from chemical shift effects of various elements in zeolites including heteroatom substitutions, framework defects and pentacoordinated silicon for zeolites containing fluoride ions. New developments in the field of NMR crystallography are included. Spatial host-guest ordering and confinement effects of zeolite-sorbate complexes are outlined, with special emphasis on NMR applications utilizing the heteronuclear dipolar interaction. The characterization of zeolite acid sites and in situ NMR on catalytic conversions is also included. Finally, the motion of extra-framework cations is investigated in two tutorial cases of sodium hopping in sodalite and cancrinite.

Abstract
Combining quantum-chemical calculations and ultrahigh-field NMR measurements of (29)Si chemical shielding (CS) tensors has provided a powerful approach for probing the fine details of zeolite crystal structures. In previous work, the quantum-chemical calculations have been performed on 'molecular fragments' extracted from the zeolite crystal structure using Hartree-Fock methods (as implemented in Gaussian). Using recently acquired ultrahigh-field (29) Si NMR data for the pure silica zeolite ITQ-4, we report the results of calculations using recently developed quantum-chemical calculation methods for periodic crystalline solids (as implemented in CAmbridge Serial Total Energy Package (CASTEP) and compare these calculations to those calculated with Gaussian. Furthermore, in the context of NMR crystallography of zeolites, we report the completion of the NMR crystallography of the zeolite ITQ-4, which was previously solved from NMR data. We compare three options for the 'refinement' of zeolite crystal structures from 'NMR-solved' structures: (i) a simple target-distance based geometry optimization, (ii) refinement of atomic coordinates in which the differences between experimental and calculated (29)Si CS tensors are minimized, and (iii) refinement of atomic coordinates to minimize the total energy of the lattice using CASTEP quantum-chemical calculations. All three refinement approaches give structures that are in remarkably good agreement with the single-crystal X-ray diffraction structure of ITQ-4.

Abstract
We review the calculation of NMR J-coupling in solid materials using the planewave pseudopotential formalism of Density Functional Theory. The methodology is briefly summarised and an account of recent applications is given. We discuss various aspects of the calculations which should be taken into account when comparing results with solid-state NMR experiments including anisotropy and orientation of the J tensors, the reduced coupling constant, and the relation between J and crystal structure.

Abstract
In 2001, Pickard and Mauri implemented the gauge including projected augmented wave (GIPAW) protocol for first-principles calculations of NMR parameters using periodic boundary conditions (chemical shift anisotropy and electric field gradient tensors). In this paper, three potentially interesting perspectives in connection with PAW/GIPAW in solid-state NMR and pure nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) are presented: (i) the calculation of J coupling tensors in inorganic solids; (ii) the calculation of the antisymmetric part of chemical shift tensors and (iii) the prediction of (14)N and (35)Cl pure NQR resonances including dynamics. We believe that these topics should open new insights in the combination of GIPAW, NMR/NQR crystallography, temperature effects and dynamics. Points (i), (ii) and (iii) will be illustrated by selected examples: (i) chemical shift tensors and heteronuclear (2)J(P-O-Si) coupling constants in the case of silicophosphates and calcium phosphates [Si(5)O(PO(4))(6), SiP(2)O(7) polymorphs and α-Ca(PO(3))(2)]; (ii) antisymmetric chemical shift tensors in cyclopropene derivatives, C(3)X(4) (X = H, Cl, F) and (iii) (14)N and (35)Cl NQR predictions in the case of RDX (C(3)H(6)N(6)O(6)), β-HMX (C(4)H(8)N(8)O(8)), α-NTO (C(2)H(2)N(4)O(3)) and AlOPCl(6). RDX, β-HMX and α-NTO are explosive compounds.

Abstract
Spectroscopic techniques are valuable tools for understanding the structure and dynamics of complex systems, such as biomolecules or nanomaterials. Most of the current research is devoted to the development of new experimental techniques for improving the intrinsic resolution of different spectra. However, the subtle interplay of several different effects acting at different length and time scales still makes the interpretation and analysis of such spectra a very difficult task. In this respect, computational spectroscopy is becoming a needful and versatile tool for the assignment and interpretation of experimental spectra. It is in fact possible nowadays to model with relatively high accuracy the physical-chemical properties of complex molecules in different environments, and to link spectroscopic evidence directly to the structural and dynamical properties of optically or magnetically active solvated probes. In this Review, significant steps toward the simulation of entire spectra in condensed phases are presented together with some basic aspects of computational spectroscopy, which highlight how intramolecular and intermolecular degrees of freedom influence several spectroscopic parameters.

Abstract
A systematic study utilizing rotor-synchronized homonuclear ((31)P, (27)Al) and heteronuclear ({(31)P}(27)Al and {(27)Al}(31)P) spin echo, and {(27)Al}(31)P refocused INEPT experiments (employing soft pulses for selective excitation of the central transition for the quadrupolar (27)Al (I=5/2)) have been performed on AlPO(4) berlinite at 30 kHz MAS to better understand the J modulation behavior involving half-integer quadrupolar nuclei in solid materials with framework structure. Analyses of the J modulation on either the (27)Al or (31)P coherence in both the {(31)P}(27)Al and {(27)Al}(31)P spin echo experiments, and both periods of the refocused INEPT experiment yield consistent results for the (2)J(AlP) (Al-O-P) coupling constant (ca. 25 Hz). It is noted that the coupling of each (27)Al to four (31)P spins during the first ((27)Al) evolution period of the refocused INEPT, and the populations of (31)P coupled to different numbers (0-4) of (27)Al in the ± 1/2 Zeeman states during (31)P coherence evolution, which have been neglected in previous studies, must be taken into account for proper treatment. Analysis of J modulation on the spin ((27)Al) coupled to spin-1/2 nuclei in general gives more accurate results. Weak long-range homonuclear (4)J(PP) (P-O-Al-O-P) coupling was also observed from the (31)P spin echo and INADEQUATE experiments.

SOLID STATE NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE 2010; 37:13-20.

Abstract
The experimental (13)C NMR chemical shift components of uracil in the solid state are reported for the first time (to our knowledge), as well as newer data for the (15)N nuclei. These experimental values are supported by extensive calculated data of the (13)C, (15)N and (17)O chemical shielding and (17)O and (14)N electric field gradient (EFG) tensors. In the crystal, uracil forms a number of strong and weak hydrogen bonds, and the effect of these on the (13)C and (15)N chemical shift tensors is studied. This powerful combination of the structural methods and theoretical calculations gives a very detailed view of the strong and weak hydrogen bond formation by this molecule. Good calculated results for the optimized cluster in most cases (except for the EFG values of the (14)N3 and (17)O4 nuclei) certify the accuracy of our optimized coordinates for the hydrogen nuclei. Our reported RMSD values for the calculated chemical shielding and EFG tensors are smaller than those reported previously. In the optimized cluster the 6-311+G** basis set is the optimal one in the chemical shielding and EFG calculations, except for the EFG calculations of the oxygen nuclei, in which the 6-31+G** basis set is the optimal one. The optimal method for the chemical shielding and EFG calculations of the oxygen and nitrogen nuclei is the PW91PW91 method, while for the chemical shielding calculations of the (13)C nuclei the B3LYP method gives the best results.
