Abstract

The analysis of a two-dimensional EPR spectrum gives direct evidence for a dominant nuclear quadrupole interaction at the site of the encapsulated La 3+ ion. From the observed nuclear spin transition rates we deduce eQV zz /[ I(2 I − 1) h] ≈ 0.5(3) MHz, assuming that the correlation time of the electric field gradient axes is determined by molecular reorientation of the molecule in solution. The non-vanishing value of the quadrupole interaction is further proof for an off-center position of the metal ion.
