Abstract

The order–disorder behaviour of 1-chloroadamantane (1-C10H15Cl) has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, and variable-temperature vibrational and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The factor group splittings in the vibrational spectra are in accord with the known crystal structures of the two phases. The 13C spin-lattice relaxation times and dipolar dephasing measurements have been analysed to give the barriers to rotation in both phases and to determine the nature of the rotations in each phase. In the ordered phase, the motion is limited to rotation about the molecular axis. In the disordered phase, additional motions occur about axes through the tertiary carbon atoms.
