This thesis work deals with the investigation of the structural and dynamic properties of various guest species in urea inclusion compounds. Urea inclusion compounds are widely used in chemical analyses and syntheses. Studies of the molecular properties of the guest and host components are therefore of intrinsic scientific interest. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is particularly suitable for the evaluation of the guest dynamics as well as the structural properties in such materials.The molecular behavior (dynamics, molecular order) of ?, ?-dibromoalkanes/urea inclusion compounds (CnH2nBr2, n = 6, 10, 11) with different selectively deuterated guest components was studied via solid-state 2H NMR spectroscopy, comprising variable-temperature line shape studies, spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation experiments. In addition, the conformational properties were probed by high resolution solid-state 13C and 1H NMR experiments. For the long-chain guest systems (n = 10, 11), the guest dynamics at best can be described by the presence of overall reorientations around the channel axis (modeled by a non-degenerate jump motion) along with chain fluctuations. For the dibromohexane/urea inclusion compound, the guest species exclusively exist in distinct gauche conformations, which undergo exchange with rate constants that match the NMR time-scale. For comparison, the molecular properties of 1-bromodecane in urea have been studied as well. Both the molecular order and dynamics can be described in quite the same way as found for 1, 10-dibromodecane or 1, 11-dibromo- undecane in urea.Furthermore, this work reports on 1H and 13C CP/MAS NMR studies on urea inclusion compounds with various types of guest species (n-alkanes, alkane derivatives of different chain lengths). These studies include high-speed MAS experiments as well as T1? and T1 relaxation experiments. High resolution 1H and 13C spectra manifest that the guests in urea channels are of high mobility. From the T1? data, the motion of the guest on the microsecond time scale might be explained by chain fluctuations and lateral motion and the interaction between the guest and host is confirmed.

The field of nuclear magnetic resonance has experienced a number of spectacular developments during the last decade. Fourier transform methodology revolutionized signal acquisition capabilities. Superconducting magnets enhanced sensitivity and produced considerable improvement in spectral dispersion. In areas of new applicat ions, the life sciences particularly bene fited from these developments and probably saw the largest increase in usage. NMR imaging promises to offer a noninvasive alternative to X rays. High resolution is now achievable with solids, through magic angle spinning and cross polarization, so that the powers of NMR are applicable to previously intractable materials such as polymers, coal, and other geochemicals. The ease of obtaining relaxation times brought an important fourth variable, after the chemical shift, the coupling constant, and the rate constant, to the examination of structural and kinetic problems i~ all fields. Software development, particularly in the area of pulse sequences, created a host of useful tech niques, including difference decoupling and difference nuclear Overhauser effect spectra, multidimensional displays, signal enhancement (INEPT), coupling constant analysis for connectivity (INADEQUATE), and observation of specific structural classes such as only quaternary carbons. Finally, hardware development gave us access to the entire Periodic Table, to the particular advan tage of the inorganic and organometallic chemist. At the NATO Advanced Study Institute at Stirling, Scotland, the participants endeavored to examine all these advances, except imaging, from a multidisciplinary point of view.
