Abstract
Proton multiple-quantum coherence spectroscopy has been combined with magic-angle spinning (MAS) and cross-polarization (CP). This enables the detection of the proton (or any other abundant spin) multiple-quantum coherence spectrum via the high-resolution 13C (any other spin) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum. For this purpose multiple-quantum pulse sequences synchronised to sample rotation have been designed, and the average Hamiltonians of these sequences have been analysed. The analysis allows the design of optimal experimental conditions. As a demonstration of the technique, it has been applied to a mixture of adamantane and hexamethylethane. From earlier 13C spin diffusion experiments it was known that these two molecules form a mixed crystal. With our technique we detected two different phases with different molecular translational self-diffusion coefficients in this system.
