The potentialities of NMR spectroscopy to investigate inorganic systems assembled by, or whose reactivity is affected by non-covalent interactions are herein depicted. Subjects that are receiving particular attention in recent years (halogen bonding and frustrated Lewis pairs) and more classical ones but still little explored (self-aggregation of ion pairs in low polar solvents, behavior of MAO containing metallocenium ion pairs, and hydrogen bonding/ion pairing effects in Au(I) catalysis), faced through a rather innovative approach, are considered, always focusing on the crucial information that NMR can provide.
