Abstract The 1H-NMR spin-lattice relaxation time and lineshape in solid 2-, 3-, and 4-methyl-piperidine, in 2-and N-methyl-piperazine, and in NN′-diinethyl-piperazine has been measured from low temperatures to the melting point. For all cases, the experimental data can be described by classical rotation of the methyl group. Activation energies governing this motion are between 9 and 14 kJ/mole. Second moments are reduced from about 25 G2 to 17 G2. No further line-narrowing was observed.

Abstract The proton NMR second moment and spin-lattice relaxation time for tetrapropylammonium bromide and iodide have been measured over a wide temperature range. A solid-solid phase transition related to the onset of cation tumbling was found for both salts and confirmed by DTA. In the low temperature phases methyl group reorientation was evidenced. For iodide a dynamic nonequivalence of the methyl groups and the onset of ethyl groups motion was also discovered

Spin–lattice relaxation times of tetramethylphosphonium chloride, bromide, and iodide were measured between 100 and 500 K and the two minima in T1 found for each compound have been assigned to methyl group reorientation and whole cation tumbling. The second moments also indicate that the cations are tumbling isotropically at nmr frequencies in the upper half of this temperature range, and suggest that librational oscillation of the whole cation occurs at frequencies at least of the order of 105 s−1 near 150 K. The energy barriers for both methyl group reorientation and isotropic tumbling decrease from chloride to bromide but increase when one goes from bromide to iodide. Powder photograph X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that the chloride and bromide have hexagonal crystal structures (a and c measured), but that the iodide has lower, undetermined symmetry.

Abstract The proton NMR second moment and spin-lattice relaxation time for polycrystalline tetraethyl-and tetrabutylammonium perchlorates have been measured over a wide range of temperatures. Solid-solid phase transitions related to the onset of cation tumbling were found for both compounds and confirmed by DSC. In the low temperature phases methyl-group reorientation was evidenced. For tetrabutylammonium cation a dynamic nonequivalence of one methyl group is found. The geared motion of the alkyl chains related with the onset of successive CH2-group reorientations is suggested.

Abstract The spin lattice relaxation time T1 and the second moment of the proton magnetic resonance were studied on polycrystalline samples of Ag2SO4 · 4NH3. The wideline NMR measurements show a rapid reorientation of the NH3 groups around their threefold axes in the temperature range 250 K ≦ T ≦ 380 K. Below T ≈ 250 K, the rotation of the NH3 starts freezing-in. From Ti measurements an activation energy of 27.5 kJ mol -1 for the rotation was found for temperatures above 210 K. Around 330 K a phase transition has been observed by T1 measurements which is not recognized by wideline NMR measurements in the range 77 K ≦ T ≦ 375 K. The results are discussed and compared with other NMR studies on solids containing NH3 groups.

AbstractThis paper describes film characterization of Ultra Low-k (ULK) dielectrics modified by UV curing with different wavelength bands. We have demonstrated UV hardening of ULK-SiOC (k=2.65) with two types of UV bulbs (UV-X and UV-Y) and the UV modifications of ULK-SiOC film properties are characterized by using FT-IR spectroscopy, 29Si Solid-state NMR spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. FT-IR and NMR analyses reveal that UV-Y curing is preferable for UV curing modification of ULK-SiOC. UV-Y curing increases Q mode peak in NMR, resulting in the enhanced Si-O crosslinking, while UV-X curing increases TH mode and TOR mode peaks. Spin lattice relaxation time T1 for 29Si is decreased with UV curing. This result indicates that UV curing enhances molecular motion in Si-O network. Raman analysis shows that UV curing increases amorphous carbon groups, which corresponds to the enhanced molecular motion in Si-O network.


The nuclear magnetic resonance absorption spectrum and the spin-lattice relaxation time have been measured for the protons in three isotopic species of benzene in polycrystalline form between 75 and 278° K. The three species were C 6 H 6 , C 6 H 5 D and 1. 3. 5 - C 6 H 3 D 3 . For all three species the measured spectrum has its full rigid lattice width below 90° K. A method of analysis is developed which makes it possible to derive separately the intramolecular and the intermolecular contributions to the second moment (mean square width) of the spectrum from the measured second moments, without the necessity of knowing the crystal structure. From the intramolecular contribution it is found that the separation of neighbouring protons in the C 6 H 6 molecule is 2.495 ± 0.018 Å. The intermolecular contribution is in agreement with a value calculated from a knowledge of the crystal structure. On warming from 90 to 120°K the spectrum for all three species narrows considerably. From 120°K to the melting-point (278.7° K) the second moments remain almost constant. The second moment separation procedure is also applied in this range and leads to the conclusion that the narrowing is caused by reorientation of the molecules about their hexad axes in the crystal lattice. Analysis of the measurements of the spin-lattice relaxation time shows that for all three species the reorientation process is governed by an activation energy of 3.7 ± 0.2 kcal/mole. The reorientation frequency is of the order of 10 4 c/s at 85° K and rises to a value of the order of 10 11 c/s just below the melting-point. The relationship between the present experimental results and recent measurements of the Raman spectrum of solid benzene is discussed. Finally, consideration is given to the application to other materials of methods of separating the intra- and intermolecular contributions to the second moment.

Abstract Proton and fluorine NMR second moments and spin-lattice relaxation times for polycrystalline tetraethyl-and tetrapropylammonium tetrafluoroborates have been measured over a wide range of temperatures. Solid-solid phase transitions were found for both compounds and confirmed by DSC. Methyl group C3 reorientation followed by more complex cation motions was evidenced in the low temperature phases. Overall cation reorientation characterises the high temperature phases of both compounds. Isotropic anion reorientation was found in both salts in both phases.

The adiabatic rapid passage (ARP) technique was applied to the study of molecular motion in solids. Second moments and spin–lattice relaxation times for solid furan and benzene were derived using ARP methods from 77 °K to the respective melting points. Unusual variations of the ARP signal height and shape with temperature were observed for these solids. These effects were interpreted as being due to the presence of short rotating frame relaxation times. New information regarding molecular motion in solid furan, as well as acetic acid-d1, was obtained. Also some quantitative statements have been made regarding the conditions required to observe an ARP signal in the solid state.


The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra and spin-lattice relaxation times have been measured for the protons in n -pentane (C 5 H 12 ), n -hexane (C 6 H 14 ) and cyclo pentane (C 5 H 10 ) all in the solid state. The temperature range covered was from 70° K to the melting-points of 143·4° K for n -pentane, 177·8° K for n -hexane and 179·4° K for cyclo pentane. In the case of n -pentane and n -hexane the second moments of the absorption lines were found to be smaller than the computed rigid lattice values over the. whole temperature range. Possible molecular motions which might cause this reduction are discussed. It is suggested that the most probable type of motion is reorientation of the methyl groups at the ends of each molecule about the adjacent C—C bonds. An analysis of the spin-lattice relaxation times shows that this reorientation process is governed by an activation energy of 2·7 kcal/mole for n -pentane and 2·9 kcal/mole for n -hexane, values which support the mechanism postulated. At the lowest temperature the absorption lines had not reached their full widths, even though the reorientation frequencies at these temperatures were considerably less than the line-widths. The experimental second moment for cyclo pentane below about 120° K indicates that the lattice is effectively rigid in this temperature region. The uncertainties in both the experimental and theoretical second moments do not allow a distinction to be drawn between the plane and puckered molecular models. At the temperature of the first transition (122·4° K) the line-width second moment and relaxation time all show a sudden decrease. The low value of second moment at the higher temperatures indicates that considerable molecular motion is occurring, the molecules rotating with spherical symmetry. The change in crystal structure at the temperature of the second transition (138·1° K) is thought to be a direct result of this spherical symmetry. As the temperature increases, the results indicate that more molecular motion must be occurring, and it is thought that the rotating molecules are diffusing through the lattice.

Abstract The reorientation of the tetrahedral complex anion ZnCl42- and the self-diffusion of the cation in (CH3NH3)2ZnCl4 were studied by 1H NMR spin-lattice relaxation time (1H T1) experiments. In the second highest-temperature phase, the temperature dependence of 1H T1 observed at 8.5 MHz could be explained by a magnetic dipolar-electric quadrupolar cross relaxation between 1H and chlorine nuclei, and the activation energy of the anion motion was determined to be 105 kJ mol -1 . In the highest-temperature phase, the activation energy of the self-diffusion of the cation was determined to be 58 kJ mol -1 from the temperature and frequency dependence of 1H T1
