4. EPR spectroscopy is the measured and
interpretation of the energy differences between the
atomic and molecular states.
Absorption of Microwave region 1000 MHz -300000
MHz wavelength λ =30 cm to 1 mm electro-magnetic
radiation.
To obtained the high resolution of a spectrum, the frequency of
the electromagnetic radiation externally applied and the amount
of radiation which passes through the sample with a detector is
measured to observe the spectroscopic absorptions
5. ESR Instrumentation
Microwave based
IMP Components.

◦ Console: Contains signal processing and control electronics and a
units for acquiring a spectrum
◦ Computer: Used to analyze data as well as coordinating all the units
for acquiring a spectrum.
6. WORKING OF INSTRUMENTS
A proton contains spin, similarly electron has a spin, which gives it a
magnetic property known as a magnetic moment (u).
Applied external magnetic field, the paramagnetic electrons orients in
a direction parallel or antiparallel to the direction of the magnetic field.
Formation of two distinct energy levels for the unpaired electrons
9. EPR Spectroscopy
EPR spectroscopy is the measurement and interpretation of the
energy differences between the atomic or molecular states.
◦ These measurements are obtained because the relationship
between the energy differences and the absorption of electro-
magnetic radiation.
◦ To acquire a spectrum, the frequency of the electromagnetic
radiation is changed and the amount of radiation which passes
through the sample with a detector is measured to observe the

17. Isotropic Hyperfine Interaction
Hyperfine structure (HFS) occurs as a result of the
magnetic interaction between the electronic spin S
and the nuclear spin I. The magnitude of this
interaction is given by A called isotropic hyperfine
coupling constant. The hyperfine
interaction in ESR spectra is analogous to the fine
structure, i.e., nuclear spin–spin interaction
in NMR spectra. As a result of this interaction,
the ESR signals or peaks are further split into
several lines (HFS).
18. 1.It depends on the magnitude of magnetic moments of
nuclear and electron spins.
2.The electron spin density in the immediate vicinity
of the nucleus (Fermi contact) (see Section 4.13.1)
3.It is independent of applied magnetic field
4.It obeys (n + 1) rule for I = 1/2 i.e., (2nI + 1)
5.The intensity ratio is obtained using Pascal triangle
(analogous to NMR spin–spin coupling)
19. Benzene Anion Radical
This radical has one unpaired
electron (S = 1/2) interacting with
six equivalent protons. Hence, the
number of peaks observed is
calculated as
(2nI + 1 = 2 × 6 × 1/2 + 1 = 7).
Therefore, the ESR spectrum
(Fig. 4.11) contains a septet, i.e.,
seven equally spaced lines.

21. Naphthalene anion radical
Naphthalene Anion Radical-
This radical anion consists of one unpaired electron interacting
with two sets (α and β) of four equivalent protons each as shown
in Fig. 4.12. The ESR spectrum would thus show, i.e.,
(2nI1 + 1) × (2nI2 + 1) = (4 + 1) × (4 + 1) = 25 lines. This radical
is formed when naphthalene in solution in 1,2
dimethoxyethane is reduced with potassium metal. A green
colored solution is obtained whose EPR spectrum is shown
below. By considering the pattern and coupling constants of
a1 = 4.90 G and a2 = 1.83 G of hyperfine splitting's, the species
formed is consistent with the naphthalene radical anion.
25. What is ELDOR spectroscopy?
ELDOR(electron-electron double resonance)is double
electron spin resonance in which two microwave
frequencies participate. One of these, called the
“pump” microwave source, irradiates a portion of the
ESR spectrum.
26. Difference between ESR and NMR
ESR
1.ESR is concerned with the
magnetically induced splitting of
electronic spin states
2.Microwaves in the 3 - 400 GHz
range
3.Electrons have a greater magnetic
moment than nuclei.
4.Advantage of being highly specific
5.The electron magnetic moment in
EPR is about 660 times larger than that
of the proton, and the proton's
magnetic moment is the largest of all
the nuclei used in NMR.
NMR
1.NMR describes the splitting
of nuclear spin states.
2.Radio frequency range
between 300 and 1000 MHz
3. NMR low sensitive
