The protonated form of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)napthalene [DMANH(super +)] consists of a rigid, aromatic framework, substituted by two amino groups that are connected by a strong, symmetric hydrogen bond bridge. Treating the reorientation of DMANH(super +) as anisotropic rotational diffusion tensor was determined with good accuracy.

Carbon-13 MAS NMR spectroscopy gives information about segmental mobility in disordered solids. NMR is useful to study carbohydrate-protein interactions.

The dynamic properties the guest-host complex between cryptophane-E and dichloromethane are studied in tetrachloroethane solution, using proton and carbon-13 NMR, and in the solid state by means of deuteron NMR. The reorientation dynamics of the guest inside of the host cavity is examined.

An experiment to measure and assign the 2H quadrupolar couplings in ordered medium with a heteronuclear multiple quantum spectroscopy is discussed.

The molecular structure of benzene dissolved in a columnar liquid crystal formed by the carbohydrate mesogen octa-omicron-decanoyl-beta-cellobiose (Cel-II-10) has been investigated using carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The orientational order of benzene in a uniaxial liquid crystal is the focus of the research and is limited only to uniaxial molecules in a uniaxial phase. Results indicate that carbon-13 lines are wide and powder-like which suggests that there is only partial alignment of the liquid crystal in the magnetic field. The traces in the right column are characteristic of a disordered uniaxial sample.

A variable temperature (super 2)H solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigation of cryptophane-E: chloroform and cryptophane-E: dichloromethane inclusion complexes is presented. One of the findings showed that the (super 2)H NMR data were complemented by an X-ray diffraction study of the cryptophane-E: dichloromethane structure, which was utilized in the analysis of the NMR parameters.

An investigation is made on the 1,2,3,5,6,7-hexaoctyloxy-rufigallol by using the two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance technique. The analysis of the dipolar couplings shows that the three-noneqivalent aliphatic chains in RufH80 exhibit vastly different structural and dynamical characteristics.
