However, thecharacterization ofPtsurface-sites is complicated bythetypicallowPtloadings thatarebetween 0.2and5wt%and broadening of 195Ptsolid-state NMRspectrabyCSA.Here,weintroduce asetof solid-state NMRmethods thatexploitfastMASandindirectdetection usinga sensitive spynucleus( 1Hor 31P)toenabletherapidacquisition of 195PtMAS NMRspectra.Wedemonstrate thathigh-resolution wideline 195PtMASNMRspectracanbeacquired inminutestoafewhoursfor aseriesofmolecular andsingle-site PtspeciesgraftedonsilicawithPtloadingofonly3-5wt%.Low-power, long-duration, sidebandselective excitation, andsaturation pulsesareincorporated into t1-noiseeliminated dipolarheteronuclear multiple quantum coherence, perfectechoresonance echosaturation pulsedoubleresonance, or J-resolved pulsesequences.
