Direct and indirect Sn–H coupling constants in MeSnCl3 and Me3SnCl partially oriented in nematic phases determined by the dilution–spinning method

Abstract

Direct and indirect coupling constants between Sn and H atoms in MeSnCl₃ and Me₃SnCl partially oriented in nematic phases are separated by the dilution-spinning method which utilizes dilution effects in addition to the conventional method of sample rotation, and structural parameters comparable to those in the gas phase are obtained for the SnCH₃ fragment.
