This tutorial review describes solid state NMR spectroscopy, what are the possible techniques to obtain high resolution and 2D spectra ( structural information), and what are their applications in the context of well-defined heterogeneous catalysts prepared by surface organometallic chemistry.High resolution solid state NMR spectroscopy in surface organometallic chemistry: access to molecular understanding of active sites of well-defined heterogeneous catalyststext::journal::journal article::research article
