71Ga and 31P solid state NMR: a powerful tool for the characterization of the first gallium phosphonates
Abstract
Two new gallium phosphonates Ga(OH)(O3PC2H4- CO2H)·H2O 1 and Ga3(OH)3(O3PC2H4CO2)2·2H2O 2 are prepared and characterized, using 31P MAS and 71Ga static NMR spectroscopy, showing a good correspondence between the fitted NMR parameters and the crystallographic data.
