title: Study of molecular dynamics and cross relaxation in tetramethylammonium hexafluorophosphate (CH(3))(4)NPF(6) by (1)H and (19)F NMR.
abstract: (CH(3))(4)NPF(6) is studied by NMR measurements to understand the internal motions and cross relaxation mechanism between the heterogeneous nuclei. The spin lattice relaxation times (T(1)) are measured for (1)H and (19)F nuclei, at three (11.4, 16.1 and 21.34 MHz) Larmor frequencies in the temperature range 350-50K and (1)H NMR second moment measurements at 7 MHz in the temperature range 300-100K employing home made pulsed and wide-line NMR spectrometers. (1)H NMR results are attributed to the simultaneous reorientations of both methyl and tetramethylammonium groups and motional parameters are evaluated. (19)F NMR results are attributed to cross relaxation between proton and fluorine and motional parameters for the PF(6) group reorientation are evaluated.
