Abstract
Spin-lattice relaxation times T-1 and T-1 rho are determined for protons in three polycrystals (CH3NH3)(5)Bi2Cl11, (CD3NH3)(5)Bi2Cl11 and (CH3ND3)(5)B i2Cl11. The temperature dependencies of the relaxation times obtained for ( CH3NH3)(5)Bi2Cl11 and (CD3NH3)(5)Bi2Cl11 are interpreted as a result of cor related motions of the three-proton groups of the monomethylammonium cation . The minimum of the T-1 rho relaxation time is explained as a result of th e oscillations of the symmetry axis of the whole cation. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
