| A Deuterium NMR Study of some Ammonium Tetraphenylborates  | | | | Abstract
| Deuterium nmr has been used to study the rotational dynamics of the ammonium ion in ammo-nium tetraphenylborate and of the cation in a series of methylammonium tetraphenylborates. The results of variable temperature 2 H relaxation measurements (T 1Z and T 1Q) on the parent compound, ND 4 B(C 6 H 5) 4 , lead to a low activation energy for reorientation of the ND 4 ion, 5.0 ± 0.5 kJ mol -1 , indicative of weak cation-anion interactions. Related studies of the tetramethyl-d 12 ammonium salt indicate rapid jumps of the whole cation (T <|10 -5 S) over the complete temperature range investi-gated, 137 to 385 K, with an activation energy of 14.1 + 0.5 kJ mol" 1 . Deuterium nmr lineshape studies of the methylammonium salt indicate rapid reorientation of the CD 3 and ND 3 groups about their C 3 axes; however, the motion of the C-N axis is restricted to large amplitude librations. Similar studies of the dimethylammonium salt indicate methyl group jumps at 245 K; at temperatures above 320 K the cation also undergoes two-site jumps about the C 2 axis. In the case of the trimethylam-monium salt, the nmr lineshapes indicate methyl group jumps superimposed on C 3 rotations of the complete cation about the N-H bond axis over the temperature interval 185-348 K. In all the tetraphenylborate salts studied, the 2 H nmr lineshapes indicate substantial librational motion of the cation at room temperature. | | | |

| Dielectrophoretic Rotation in Budding Yeast Cells | | | | Abstract
| Rotation of budding yeast cells in an alternating non-uniform electric field of low frequency was investigated. Rotation frequency was found to be proportional to field strength above a threshold, and varied from cell to cell. The threshold is inversely correlated with the mom ent of inertia of the cells, while the slope of rotation frequency versus field strength increases with the moment. Rotation frequencies varied between 1 and 10 cycles per second. Clear differences between the dielectrophoretic behaviour o f living and heat-inactivated yeast cells were observed. | | | |
