Abstract
It is shown that nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of nitrogen-14 (spin I = 1) can be obtained by indirect detection in powders spinning at the magic angle (MAS). The method relies on the transfer of coherence from a neighboring nucleus with S = 1/2, such as carbon-13, to single- or double-quantum transitions of nitrogen-14 nuclei. The transfer of coherence occurs through second-order quadrupole-dipole cross terms, also known as residual dipolar splittings. The two-dimensional NMR spectra reveal powder patterns determined by the second-order quadrupolar interactions of nitrogen-14. Analysis of the spectra yields the quadrupolar coupling constant, CQ, and asymmetry parameter, etaQ, of nitrogen-14. These parameters can be related to the structure of nitrogen-containing solids.
