Line shape and spin-lattice relaxation rate studies of the ammonium headgroups and the adajacent methylene groups indicate the onset of alkyl-chain motion prior to the first order phase transition. In the low-temperature phase the line shape and the spin-lattice relaxation rates of the -ND3 groups are consistent with C3 jumps and an activation energy of 54±4 kJ mol"1. However, in the high-temperature phase the spin-lattice relaxation studies indicate the presence of small-angle diffusion of the -ND3 groups around the C3 symmetry axis. In this phase the -CD2-groups show line shapes typical of large-amplitude two-site jumps occurring at a rate > 107 s~ l. In the low-temperature phase, at temperatures below 295 K, the -CD2-2H NMR line shapes indicate that the C-D bonds are essentially static. | | |
