The 11B, 10B, and 14N spin–lattice relaxation times (T1) for aqueous solutions of BH3NH3 were measured by NMR spectroscopy. The results of this investigation are consistent with the nuclear quadrupolar coupling constants reported in previous nuclear quadrupolar resonance and microwave studies. The activation energy associated with rotational reorientation of BH3NH3 in aqueous solution is 11.7 ± 0.6 kJ/mol. Electric field gradients were calculated at various levels of abinitio molecular orbital theory, in order to obtain theoretical 14N and 11B quadrupolar coupling constants. At the highest level of calculation (CI(SD)/6-31G**//MP2/6-31G**), these are in agreement with recently reported microwave results but not with previously reported NQR experiments.

Abstract1H NMR spin-lattice relaxation times T1 and -if accessible -level-crossing peaks and inelastic neutron scattering spectra have been measured for solid 2-and 3-methylfuran, 2-and 3-methylthiophene, 3-and 4-methylpyrazole, 1-methylimidazole, and 5-methylisoxazole. From the tunnel splittings, the torsional excitations and the NMR relaxation rates, the molecular dynamics of the methyl rotators has been evaluated between the limits of quantum tunnelling at low temperatures and thermally activated random reorientation at elevated temperatures.

A study of ,95Mo spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) and linewidths of [Mo(CO)5L] complexes, where L = PPh3, AsPh3, SbPh3, pyridine and Cl-, has shown that the relaxation times are due entirely to the quadrupolar mechanism, with no scalar coupling contribution to linewidth where molybdenum is bonded to a quadrupolar nucleus. Based on the literature value of the quadrupole coupling constant obtained by n.q.r . for the PPh3 complex (1.972 MHz), the quadrupole coupling constants of the arsine and stibine complexes are determined to be 3.36 and 3.75 MHz respectively. These values, and that of the pyridine complex (2.80 MHz), are found to correlate with ligand partial field gradient parameters obtained from Mossbauer spectra of FeII complexes, and are rationalized in terms of metal- ligand bonding interactions. For Et4N [Mo(CO)5Cl], the correlation is very poor; this result is attributed to the effects of ion in solution.

Various nmr spectroscopic techniques have been used to determine the orientation of the anomeric hydroxyl group of 2,3:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-mannofuranose (1) in dimethylsulfoxide solution, as well as other conformational features of themolecule. 13C and 1H coupling constants indicate that in its most probable orientation the O—H bond is anti with respect tocarbon-2, and forms an angle of ~40° with the C-1—H-1 bond. Spin-lattice relaxation rates (R1) and nuclear Overhauser enhancements (nOe) have been measured for the pertinent protons and used, in conjunction with 13C relaxation times, as additional criteria for characterizing the geometry of the anomeric alcohol group of 1. These results are in good agreement with the coupling constant data. The conformations of the mannofuranose ring, the 2,3-O-isopropylidene ring, and the C-4 to C-6 region of the molecule are also described.

AbstractLithium mobility in LiM2(PO4)3 compounds, with M= Ge, Ti, Sn, Zr and Hf, has been investigated by 7Li Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in the temperature range 100-500 K. From the analysis of 7Li NMR quadrupole interactions (CQ and η parameters), Li sites occupancy and exchange processes between structural sites have been studied. Below 250K, Li ions are preferentially located at M1 sites in rhombohedral phases, but occupy M12 sites in triclinic ones. At increasing temperatures, Li mobility has been deduced from spin-spin () and spin-lattice relaxation () rates. In this analysis, the presence of two relaxation mechanisms in plots has been associated with departures of conductivity from the Arrhenius behavior. At high temperatures, residence times at M12−T11−T11−T1 and M12 sites become similar and conductivity significantly increase. This superionic state can be achieved by enlarged order-disorder transformations in rhombohedral phases, or by sharp first order transitions in triclinic ones. Results described in the LiTi2(PO4)3 sample have been compared with those obtained in rhombohedral Li1+xTi2-xAlx(PO4)3 and LiTi2-xZrx(PO4)3 series showing respectively higher and lower conductivities. In the case of Li1.2Ti1.8Al0.2(PO4)3, displaying the highest reported conductivity, NMR results are discussed in relation with those obtained by Neutron Diffraction (ND) and Impedance Spectroscopy (IS). Diffusion coefficients determined by NMR Pulse Field Gradient (PFG) technique are similar to those deduced from Impedance Spectroscopy and NMR relaxation data.

Indirect measurements of nitrogen-14 nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times and direct proton coupling constants are presented together with carbon-13 T1 data for a series of alkyl-substituted nucleic acid bases and mixtures thereof in DMSO-d6. With the exception of the guanine NH nitrogen, which possibly experiences a decrease in the electric field gradient upon complexation with cytosine, no indications of significant changes in the electronic environment around the nitrogen nuclei were found for any combination of bases. Forsen–Hoffman spin saturation transfer experiments on the NH and NH2 protons are also presented.

The viscosity and temperature dependence of 1H, 2H, and 13C nmr relaxation rates of triphenylene were investigated. The observed η/T dependence of the reorientation correlation time, τc, is compared with that derived from the work of Hu and Zwanzig based on hydro–dynamic rotation with 'stick' and 'slip' boundary conditions. In the hydrodynamic regime,τ = Cη/T. The observed slope, Cexperimental, is 6.2 ± 2 ns K/cP and the calculated values are Cslip = 4.1 ± 0.6 ns K/cP and Cstick = 31.0 ± 3.1 ns K/cP. These data imply that the reorientation of triphenylene obeys a near-slip condition. That is, rotation in the plane of the molecule encounters little resistance, but rotation of the plane of the molecule is resisted by shear forces in the solvent displaced during rotation. Expressions are given for Boltzmann-averaged free rotation times and comparisons are made with the η = 0 intercept and the times for slightly hindered rotation.

A layered model of the structural organization of macrofibrils of native cellulose, consisting of microfibrils, which include elementary fibrils, has been developed. A feature of the proposed model is the presence of slit-like pores between the crystalline elements of cellulose. It was found that, on average, each water molecule interacts with one glucose residue of the surface chains of cellulose with the formation of hydrogen bonds in the framework of monolayer adsorption. This allows to establish a correlation between the cellulose crystallinity and the capacity of the adsorption water monolayer on its active surface. Based on the condition of rapid molecular exchange between the adsorption water layers in the framework of the Bloembergen-Purcell-Pound theory, an approach is proposed for determination the capacity of water monolayer. The obtained values are consistent with the results of solving the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller equation for the adsorption isotherm of water on the active surface of cellulose. The Fourier transform of the free induction decay signal of cellulose allows to estimate its crystallinity at various moisture contents. Methods have been developed for assessing the crystallinity of different types of dry cellulose based on NMR relaxation parameters — spin-lattice relaxation time and spin-spin relaxation time. Using the method of deuteration of cellulose, the relaxation times of its crystalline regions were determined. The results of preliminary studies showed that the crystallinity of cotton cellulose is higher in comparison with the same parameter of woody types of cellulose. A comparison of the literature and the data we obtained using 1H-NMR relaxation confirmed the possibility of utilizing the developed methods to solve the tasks of scientific research and conducting quality control of cellulosic materials at specialized enterprises.

AbstractThe spin-lattice relaxation time of 39K NMR observed in the low-temperature phase (T<264.1 K) of KNO2 is explained by the quadrupole mechanism contributed from a newly found NO2- motion. The in-plane C3 reorientation and the overvall NO2 rotation as well as the self-diffusion were shown in the intermediate phase (T ≤ 314.7 K) and the high-temperature plastic phase (T < melting point: 710 K), respectively, by observing 39K and 15N NMR relaxation times and 15N lineshapes.
