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.

The temperature dependence of the 15N and 133Cs NMR spin-lattice relaxation times, the 15N spin-spin relaxation time, and the 15N and 133Cs spectra of CsNO2 was observed in the plastic phase (209.2 < T < 673 K (m. p.)) and the low-temperature phase (Phase II). In Phase II we found the NO-2 180°-flip, which could be attributed to the anomalous increase of the heat capacity curve, and determined the activation energy of this motion to be 8.7-11.7 kJ mol-1. The 15N and 133Cs spectra in this phase are inconsistent with the reported crystal structure R3̅m and can be explained by lower crystal symmetry. In the plastic phase we detected a new anionic motion with 11 kJ mol-1 , an isotropic NO-2 reorientation with 8.5-9 kJ mol-1, and ionic self-diffusion with 47 kJ mol-1. The presence of ionic self-diffusion was confirmed by measuring the electrical conductivity.

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

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.

Abstract The NMR spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) and linewidth parameter (T2*) of 203Tl and 205T1 in solid T1SCN were measured from 290 K up to the melting point (Tm = 507 K). The nonexponential magnetization recovery of could be characterized by a short (T1s) and a long (T11) component. T11 showed a T-2 dependence below ca. 350 K in the orthorhombic phase (T<Tc = 371 K) and a minimum in the tetragonal phase (Tc<T<Tm), which were interpreted in terms of lattice vibrations and head-to-tail flips of the linear SCN- ions, respectively. A broad minimum of 77 around 360 K was explained in terms of indirect nucleus-electron scalar coupling between 203Tl and 205Tl, modulated via the anionic flips occurring in the symmetric and asymmetric potential fields for the highland low-temperature phase, respectively. The phase transition is closely related to dynamical disorder of the anionic orientations. At higher temperatures, translational self-diffusion of Tl+ was evidenced by the T2* and T1s results

AbstractMeasurements of the 1H spin-lattice relaxation time T1, the linewidth parameter T*2the second moment of 1H NMR absorption, differential thermal analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry were performed on methylammonium tetrabromozincate(II) crystals from 58 to above 500 K. A solid-solid phase transition was located at 456 K. In the room temperature phase, 120° reorientational jumps of CH3 and NH3+ groups in the cation about its C -N bond axis were detected. In the high-temperature phase, the cations undergo overall reorientation as well as translational self-diffusion. The activation energy for the cationic self-diffusion was evaluated to be 18 kJ mol-1 .

133Cs NMR spectra and spin-lattice relaxation times T1 in crystalline Cs2ZnCl4 and Cs2ZnBr4 with -K2SO4 structure, and Cs2CdI4 and Cs2HgI4 with Sr2GeS4 structure, which have no phase transition in the lower temperature regions, weremeasured to clarify the relation between the interionic covalency and crystal structures. Two central lines corresponding to two crystallographically inequivalent Cs sites were observed in all compounds. One of the two peaks in β-K2SO4-type compounds appears below 40 ppm, but another peak in those compounts and the both lines in Sr2GeS4-type compounds show larger shifts, 130 - 200 ppm. The temperature dependences of T1 observed in Sr2GeS4-type compounds were close to the theoretical behaviour, calculated by considering contributions from normal lattice vibrations. Deviations from the calculation obtained for β-K2SO4-type systems are attributable to the difference in interionic interactions, i. e., partial covalency, in the crystals

Abstract Proton and fluorine NMR linewidths, second moments, and spin-lattice relaxation times of polycrystalline [C(NH2)3]2SbF5 and C(NH2)3SbF6 were studied in a wide temperature range. For the pentafluoroantimonate, C3-reorientation of the guanidinium cation and C4-reorientation of the SbF5 anion were revealed and their activation parameters determined. The dynamical inequivalence of the two guanidinium cations was evidenced. For the hexafluoroantimonate, two solid-solid phase transitions were found. In the low temperature phase the guanidinium cation undergoes C3 reorien­ tation while the SbF6 anion reorients isotropically. The respective activation parameters were derived. At high temperatures new ionic plastic phases were evidenced.

Phase transitions and incommensurability in K2SbF5 have been studied by means of 123Sb NQR spectra and spin-lattice relaxation measurements. The phase transitions occur at 117, 135 and 260 K. The line shape and temperature dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time T1 at 135 to 260 K are characteristic for an incommensurate state with a plane wave modulation regime. At 117 to 135 K a distinct fine structure of the NQR spectra has been observed. The X-ray diffraction pattern of this phase is interpreted as a coexistence of two modulation waves along the a and b axis with wave vectors (a*/6 + b*/6) and (a*/2 + b*/2), respectively. The best interpretation that fits our NQR data is a coexistence of two domains, the structures of which are modulated with different periods in such a manner that each domain exhibits only one of the aforementioned modulation waves. Redistribution of line intensities with the variation of temperature shows that one of the domains becomes energetically preferable on cooling and is transformed into the low temperature phase at 117 K. The 123SbNQR measurements in K2SbF5 show unusually short values of T1, which become close to the spin-spin relaxation time T2 with increasing temperature. - Pacs: 61.44.Fw, 64.60, 64.70, 64.70.Rh, 76.60

Temperature-dependent proton NMR relaxation time measurements have been performed at 60 MHz in order to study the NH4+ dynamics in ferroelectric NH4H(ClH2CCOO)2 and mixed Rbx(NH4)1-x(ClH2CCOO)2, where x = 0.15. The data indicate that the dominant relaxation mechanism for the NMR spin-lattice relaxation time T 1 in both crystals involves simultaneous NH4 group reorientation about their C2 and C3 symmetry axis in the paraelectric phase. Details of the NH4+reorientation have been inferred from analysis of temperature dependence of T1 assuming the Watton model. The activation parameters of the motionshave been determined.It has been found that the substitution of Rb does not change the activation parameters of the NH4 group dynamics.

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.
