Solid-State <sup>25</sup>Mg NMR Spectroscopic and Computational Studies of Organic Compounds. Square-Pyramidal Magnesium(II) Ions in Aqua(magnesium) Phthalocyanine and Chlorophyll <i>a</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report a solid-state (25)Mg NMR spectroscopic study of two magnesium-containing organic compounds: monopyridinated aqua(magnesium) phthalocyanine (MgPc.H(2)O.Py) and chlorophyll a (Chla). Each of these compounds contains a Mg(II) ion coordinating to four nitrogen atoms and a water molecule in a square-pyramidal geometry. Solid-state (25)Mg NMR spectra for MgPc.H(2)O.Py were obtained at 11.7 T (500 MHz for (1)H) for a (25)Mg-enriched sample (99.1% (25)Mg atom) using both Hahn-echo and quadrupole Carr-Purcell Meiboom-Gill (QCPMG) pulse sequences. Solid-state (25)Mg NMR spectra for Chla were recorded at (25)Mg natural abundance (10.1%) at 19.6 T (830 MHz for (1)H). The (25)Mg quadrupole parameters were determined from spectral analyses: MgPc.H(2)O.Py, C(Q) = 13.0 +/- 0.1 MHz and eta(Q) = 0.00 +/- 0.05; Chla, C(Q) = 12.9 +/- 0.1 MHz and eta(Q) = 1.00 +/- 0.05. This work represents the first time that Mg(II) ions in a square-pyramidal geometry have been characterized by solid-state (25)Mg NMR spectroscopy. Extensive quantum mechanical calculations for electric-field-gradient (EFG) and chemical shielding tensors were performed at restricted Hartee-Fock (RHF), density functional theory (DFT), and second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) levels for both compounds. Computed (25)Mg nuclear quadrupole coupling constants at the RHF and MP2 levels show a reasonable basis-set convergence at the cc-pV5Z basis set (within 7% of the experimental value); however, B3LYP results display a drastic divergence beyond the cc-pVTZ basis set. A new crystal structure for MgPc.H(2)O.Py is also reported.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
