“…EPR is one of the most powerful methods to obtain a detailed description of the local structure of vanadium centers in their +4 (paramagnetic) oxidation state (3d 1 , S = 1/2). In particular, so-called hyperfine techniques (HYSCORE and ENDOR) have been proven extremely useful to elucidate the local topology of vanadium-containing heterogeneous catalysts in general − and the nature of paramagnetic transition metal ions such as Ti, V, and Mn in AlPOs in particular. ,,− In the case of AlPOs, both aluminum and phosphorus have suitable magnetic properties for the investigation of long-range magnetic interactions by high-resolution EPR techniques, which allow discriminating between different substitutional sites. In particular, in the present work, the major spectroscopic information obtained are the 1 H, 31 P, and 27 Al ligand hyperfine interactions (hfi), which are measured by means of HYSCORE spectroscopy at X- and Q-band frequencies.…”
