Description

The magnetic transferred h.f.i. and the electric quadrupole interaction of the two 139La nuclei nearest to Gd3+ in LaCl3 have been determined with ENDOR, using Ka-band (34.5 GHz) microwaves. For both lanthanum positions it was found that Asub(s)/Asub(p) approximately 1 and Asub(p)-Asub(d) approximately 0. The ENDOR data give no evidence for significant local distortion around Gd3+. This implies that ligand displacements due to the difference in size between Gd3+ and La3+ cannot account for the disagreement between the observed and calculated B02 of Gd3+. (Auth.)
