✦ Synopsis


The cross polarization technique combined with magic-angle spinning has been applied to obtain 13C n.m.r. spectra of a sedimentologically homogeneous series of peat, lignite and bituminous coal derived from higher plants. Despite some uncertainties on the quantitative aspects of the method, the structural information obtained was corelated with data from elemental analysis. Structural average parameters were also calculated by using the structural basic unit concept and relating it to the maturation stage of the organic matter.
