B. Nogaj et al., Hindered rotation of CH3 groups and phenyl ring in clofibric acid (drug) studied by Cl-35-NQR and H-1-NMR spectroscopy, APPL MAGN R, 15(2), 1998, pp. 227-236
The Cl-35-NQR frequency (v(Q)), nuclear quadrupole spin-lattice relaxation
time (T-1Q), H-1-NMR second moment (M-2), nuclear magnetic spin-lattice rel
axation time (T-1) and spin-lattice relaxation time in rotating frame (T-1
rho) were measured for polycrystalline clofibric acid (drug) as a function
of temperature. Hindered rotation of two dynamically inequivalent methyl gr
oups and the phenyl ring was detected, the relevant activation energies wer
e determined. The rotations are discussed in detail.
