Abstract

Spin-rotation interaction constants, c, are calculated from the paramagnetic term of the nuclear magnetic shielding constant, σ p, using a relationship originally due to Ramsey. Calculated values show excellent agreement with experimental determinations from molecular beam measurements. Since σ p can be easily estimated from the chemical shift of the nuclear resonance this provides a general method for estimating spin-rotation interaction constants. Chemical shift anisotropies allow the components c ⊥ and c ‖ of the spin-rotation interaction tensor to be determined. Generally both components have the same sign and are of similar magnitude. The r.m.s. value of the spin-rotation interaction constant, required to calculate nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times, is not expected to differ appreciably from average values obtained from molecular beam measurements or magnetic shielding. Values for the molecular angular velocity correlation time, τ sr, calculated directly from nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times...
