NMR STUDY OF STRUCTURE OF LANTHANIDE COMPLEXES IN SOLUTION

摘要

Thermodynamic and optical spectroscopic studies of lanthanide complexes in aqueous solution have provided much interesting speculation on the structures of these complexes. Unfortunately, however, these studies cannot provide the basis for definitive models of these structures. We have investigated the use of nuclear magnetic resonance as a tool for obtaining more direct insight into the structure of lanthanide complexes in solution.
