Silver-109 nmr studies of Ag(I) salts in solutions

During recent years the nuclear magnetic resonance of metallic nuclei with I > O has become an interesting and useful extension of the more common nmr spectroscopy of nuclei such as H, 13C, 31P and 19F. Some preliminary results are reported on variations in the chemical shifts of silver-109 nucleus as a function of concentration and of solvent. Silver nitrate and silver perchlorate were studied in aqueous solution. Results are also presented for silver nitrate solutions in acetonitrile and in water-acetonitrile mixtures. (U.K.)
