The hydroxylation of oxide surfaces driven by molecular H 2 dissociation plays a central role in a wide range of catalytic redox reactions. The high reducibility and oxygen storage capacity of ceria (CeO 2 ) surfaces account for its extensive use as active catalyst support in these redox reactions. By means of ab init…

We apply the Kurland-McGarvey (J. Magn. Reson. 1970, 2, 286) theory for the NMR shielding of paramagnetic molecules, particularly its special case limited to the ground-state multiplet characterized by zero-field splitting (ZFS) interaction of the form S·D·S. The correct formulation for this problem was recently prese…
