High Pressure Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Studies of Homogeneous Catalysts

The design and testing of a nuclear magnetic resonance probe for studying homogeneous catalysts from $-40\sp\circ$C to $100\sp\circ$C and pressures up to 4000 psi is described. Its significant features are a built-in stirring mechanism to mix the sample under study with reactive gases, and resolution and sensitivity comparable to that obtained in ambient-pressure probes without sample spinning. Well-known organometallic reactions are used to demonstrate the probe's capabilities.
