Nuclear relaxation processes of paramagnetic complexes The slow-motion case

Vega, Alexander J., Fiat, Daniel·1976·Molecular Physics

Abstract

The nuclear relaxation mechanism in tumbling paramagnetic molecules is a superposition of two processes, the usual ‘S-mechanism’ and an additional ‘χ-mechanism’. The latter arises from the thermal average of the electron spin polarization and is conveniently described in terms of the molecular susceptibility χ. Expressions for T 1 and T 2 due to χ-relaxation are derived. The χ-contribution is appreciable in cases where the rotational correlation time is four orders of magnitude longer than the electron spin relaxation time. The χ-relaxation rates increase quadratically with the external field. The effects of anisotropic susceptibility and of chemical exchange are considered. It is shown that in certain important cases the N.M.R. line width is not determined by the chemical exchange rate, even when it is much faster than the tumbling rate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
