Abstract
According to the solid-state 13C, 31P NMR study and 13C chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) measurements, aromatic rings in the layered metal(IV) phosphonate materials behave as low-energy rotors at rotation activation energy, Eact, of 1.4-3.0 kcal/mol. The rotational mechanism consists of 180° flips and librations around C(1)-C(4) axis. The amplitude of the librations, added to the flips, grows with temperature, shifting the reorientations toward rotational diffusion at high temperatures.
