An ab initio calculation of double zeta quality on glycyl-glycine at the crystal structure yielded nuclear quadrupole coupling constants at the peptide centres very close to experiment; Xzz -3.03, Xyy +2.14, Xxx +0.89 MHz. The first two couplings lie in the local π-direction, and along the C-N bond, respectively. At the NH⊕3 centre the values were less satisfactory, but the (low) positive value of Xzz was obtained, and lies relatively close to the N-C bond. The results suggest that similar calculations may be successful for other H-bonded systems, provided that aromatic systems are not involved.

The 127I NQR frequency in anilinium iodide C6H5NH3⊕I⊖ was studied at pressures up to 300 MPa and within the temperature range 77 K - 290 K. With increasing pressure the order-disorder transition point Tc is shifted to higher temperatures. The pressure coefficient of the phase transition temperature amounts to dTc/dp = 4.2 x 10-2 deg MPa-1. The pressure coefficient of the NQR frequency is negative. In addition, the 12'I nuclear quadrupole coupling constants and the respective asymmetry parameters η were evaluated as a function of pressure. The results confirm the close connection between the mechanism of the phase transition and the dynamics of the N - H⊕ ...I⊖ hydrogen bonds.
