An explanation of anomalous results in the NMR relaxation of a probe in liquid crystalline media

The methyl- 13C and the 14N longitudinal relaxation times in acetonitrile, dissolved in a thermotropic liquid crystal are analyzed with a slowly relaxing local structure model. This model gives rise to a frequency dependent relaxation mechanism which explains the relatively short 14N relaxation time...

Description
Summary:The methyl- 13C and the 14N longitudinal relaxation times in acetonitrile, dissolved in a thermotropic liquid crystal are analyzed with a slowly relaxing local structure model. This model gives rise to a frequency dependent relaxation mechanism which explains the relatively short 14N relaxation time compared to the methyl- 13C relaxation time.
