High-Resolution H NMR Spectroscopy in the Solid State: Very Fast Sample Rotation and Multiple-Quantum Coherences

In the past few years, solid-state ¹H NMR spectroscopy under fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) has developed into a versatile tool for elucidating structure and dynamics. Dipolar multiple-quantum (MQ), in particular double-quantum (DQ), MAS spectroscopy has been applied to a variety of materials and provided unique insight, e.g., into the structure of hydrogen-bonded systems. This review intends to present solid-state ¹H DQ and MQ MAS spectroscopy in a systematic fashion with a particular emphasis on methodological aspects, followed by an overview of applications.
