Title: 207Pb NMR in minium, Pb3O4: Evidence for the [Pb2]4+ ion andpossible relativistic effects in the Pb-Pb bond

Journal Article · · Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Solid Pb3O4 has been studied with 207Pb nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The 207Pb NMR chemical-shift tensor of the Pb2+ site has principal values of delta 11=1980+-5 ppm, delta 22=1540+-5ppm, and delta 33=-1108+-10 ppm; delta iso=804+-10 ppm. The chemical-shift tensor of the Pb4+ site is axial, with principal values delta bar bar=-1009+-3 ppm and delta perpendicular=1132+-3 ppm; delta iso=-1091+-3ppm. The Pb4+ Pb2+ scalar coupling constant JPb Pb=2.3+-0.1 kHz. The main contribution to the Pb2+ chemical-shift anisotropy is proposed to arise from an exchange interaction in the Pb2+ Pb2+ pairs, conventionally regarded as molecular [Pb2]4+ ions.
