Two dimensional Zeeman nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy

Abstract
We describe the first application of two‐dimensional spectroscopy to the pure quadrupole regime. One‐ and two‐pulse Zeeman perturbed experiments are outlined, and results of a one‐pulse experiment on the two crystallographically nonequivalent 35Cl sites in 2,4,6‐trichloro‐1,3,5‐triazine (‘‘cyanuric chloride’’) are presented. The results demonstrate that the overlapping Zeeman‐perturbed resonances in a one‐dimensional experiment are fully resolved in a two‐dimensional experiment. The methods appear to have considerable utility for the determination of the quadrupole coupling constant e2qQ/h and asymmetry parameter η for spin I=3/2 nuclei in systems with several closely spaced pure nuclear quadrupole resonance lines.
