Abstract

Deuterium quadrupole coupling constant (e2qzzQ/h) of ($\mu$3-C2H)[Co(CO)3]3 was determined by using solid-state deuterium MAS NMR spectroscopy. The small quadrupole coupling constant of bridging methyne unit relative to sp-acethylene in propyne is discussed in terms of the C-H bond length and the negative charge on the carbon.
