Benzene at 1 GHz. Magnetic field-induced fine structure

Résumé

The deuterium NMR spectrum of benzene-d(6) in a high field spectrometer (1 GHz protons) exhibits a magnetic field-induced deuterium quadrupolar splitting Delta v. The magnitude of Delta v observed for the central resonance is smaller than that observed for the C-13 satellite doublets Delta v'. This difference, Delta(Delta v) Delta v' - Delta v, is due to unresolved fine structure contributions to the respective resonances. We determine the origins of and simulate this difference, and report pulse sequences that exploit the connectivity of the peaks in the C-13 and H-2 spectra to determine the relative signs of the indirect coupling, J(CD), and Delta v. The positive sign found for Delta v is consonant with the magnetic field biasing of an isolated benzene molecule-the magnetic energy of the aromatic ring is lowest for configurations where the C-6 axis is normal to the field. In the neat liquid the magnitude of Delta v is decreased by the pair correlations in this prototypical molecular liquid.
