Transforming solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance towards a chemistry-ready technique

2025

Abstract

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (solid-state NMR) is an essential tool for probing local structure and dynamics in complex materials, yet its uptake in the broader chemistry community has remained limited by technical and operational barriers. The PANACEA project established a pan-European infrastructure to transform solid-state NMR into a community-ready analytical technique by combining state-of-the-art instrumentation, coordinated user access, and targeted technological innovation. Over three years, PANACEA enabled over 90 user projects across chemistry and materials science, while driving advances in DNP methods, probe design, ultra-fast MAS, and interoperable software platforms such as EasyNMR and CHEMeDATA. This article presents the main outcomes of the initiative, illustrating how infrastructure-driven research and guided access can broaden the impact of solid-state NMR and integrate it into mainstream chemical workflows.

Nuclear magnetic resonance

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a physical phenomenon in which nuclei in a strong constant magnetic field are perturbed by a weak oscillating magnetic field (in the near field) and respond by producing an electromagnetic signal with a frequency characteristic of the magnetic field at the nucleus. This process occurs near resonance, when the oscillation frequency matches the intrinsic frequency of the nuclei, which depends on the strength of the static magnetic field, the chemical environment, and the magnetic properties of the isotope involved; in practical applications with static magnetic fields up to ca.

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, most commonly known as NMR spectroscopy or magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), is a spectroscopic technique to observe local magnetic fields around atomic nuclei. This spectroscopy is based on the measurement of absorption of electromagnetic radiations in the radio frequency region from roughly 4 to 900 MHz. Absorption of radio waves in the presence of magnetic field is accompanied by a special type of nuclear transition, and for this reason, such type of spectroscopy is known as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy.

Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (2D NMR) is a set of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) methods which give data plotted in a space defined by two frequency axes rather than one. Types of 2D NMR include correlation spectroscopy (COSY), J-spectroscopy, exchange spectroscopy (EXSY), and nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY). Two-dimensional NMR spectra provide more information about a molecule than one-dimensional NMR spectra and are especially useful in determining the structure of a molecule, particularly for molecules that are too complicated to work with using one-dimensional NMR.
