Abstract
Cyclohexane rings in cis-decalin are known to invert at room temperature in the liquid state and in solution. However, according to conventional wisdom such a large amplitude movement should be frozen in the solid state. In this paper, cis-decalin buried inside the β-cyclodextrin cavity has been shown by variable temperature 13C CPMAS NMR to invert in the solid state even at room temperature.
