NMR Relaxation of quadrupolar Nuclei as a Probe of the Motion of Guest Species in Sodalite Cavities
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Useful information on interactions and motion of guest molecules in sodalite cavities is obtained by estimating the spin-lattice and spin-echo decay rates of encapsulated Br− ions. An extremely fast spin-lattice relaxation rate is observed for 81Br nuclei, adjacent to Br−-empty cages which contain rapidly tumbling water molecules. We detect a further significant different T1 of the 81Br in Na8Br2- sodalite and AgsBr2-sodalite, respectively, which probably indicates a less restricted motion within the cavities of the Ag+-exchanged material. Spin-echo decay experiments additionally indicate a difference between the dynamic properties of the Br− anion in the encapsulated Na4Br and Ag4Br clusters, respectively.
