Abstract

AbstractA review is given of the application of ESR spectroscopy to the study of hydrated transition metal ions and nitroxide spin probes in the interlamellar region of smectites and vermiculites. These investigations have not only provided information regarding the structure and mobility of the intracrystalline water-cation layers but have also demonstrated the reactivity and catalytic properties of certain transition metal exchange forms of smectites. Several novel coordination complexes and redox reactions between the exchange ions and a variety of simple organic molecules have been characterized.
