ABSTRACT
To examine bonding nature of fluorine ligands in a metal coordinated system, 19F high-resolution solid-state NMR has been applied to TiF4, which bears both bridging and terminal fluorines. Observed 12 isotropic signals are assigned to 12 crystallographically different fluorines (6 terminal and 6 bridging fluorines) in TiF4 by referring to the calculated isotropic shifts using density functional theory (DFT). The isotropic chemical shift (δiso) for terminal F (FT) appears at high frequency (420-480â¯ppm from δ(CCl3F)â¯=â¯0â¯ppm) with large shielding anisotropy Δσâ¯â¼â¯850â¯ppm. Whereas the δiso and Δσ values for bridging F (FB) are moderate; δisoâ¯â¼â¯0-25â¯ppm and Δσâ¯â¼â¯250â¯ppm. The origin of the observed high-frequency shift for FT is ascribed to the second-order paramagnetic shift with increased covalency, shorter Ti-F bonds, and smaller energy difference between the occupied and vacant orbitals. Examination of the orientation of the shielding tensor relative to the molecular structure shows that the most deshielded component of the shielding tensor is oriented along the Ti-F bond. The characteristic orientation is consistent with a Ti-F σ bond formed by dYZ of Ti and pz of F. Further, we show that the selectively observed spinning sideband patterns and the theoretical patterns with the calculated Δσ and η (shielding asymmetry) values are not consistent with each other for FB, indicating deficiency of the present DFT calculation in evaluating Δσ.
