Observability of Paramagnetic NMR Signals at over 10 000 ppm Chemical Shifts.

ABSTRACT: We report an experimental observation of ³¹ P NMR resonances shifted by over 10 000 ppm (meaning percent range, and a new record for solutions), and similar ¹ H chemical shifts, in an intermediate-spin square planar ferrous complex [^tBu (PNP)Fe-H], where PNP is a carbazole-based pincer ligand. Using a combination of electronic structure theory, nuclear magnetic resonance, magnetometry, and terahertz electron paramagnetic resonance, the influence of magnetic anisotropy and zero-field splitting on the paramagnetic shift and relaxation enhancement is investigated. Detailed spin dynamics simulations indicate that, even with relatively slow electron spin relaxation (T₁ ≈10^-11  s), it remains possible to observe NMR signals of directly metal
