Coupling constants factors effecting

IVR in tlie example of the CH clnomophore in CHF is thus at the origin of a redistribution process which is, despite its coherent nature, of a statistical character. In CHD, the dynamics after excitation of the stretching manifold reveals a less complete redistribution process in the same time interval [97]. The reason for this is a smaller effective coupling constant between the Fenni modes of CHD (by a factor of four) when... 

This relation is only valid for a crystal with isotropic /-factor. The effect of crystal anisotropy will be treated in Sect. 4.6.2. The function h(6) describes the probability of finding an angle 6 between the direction of the z-axis and the y-ray propagation. In a powder sample, there is a random distribution of the principal axes system of the EFG, and with h 6) = 1, we expect the intensity ratio to be I2J li = I, that is, an asymmetric Mossbauer spectrum. In this case, it is not possible to determine the sign of the quadmpole coupling constant eQV. For a single crystal, where h ) = — 6o) 5 delta-function), the intensity ratio takes the form... 

Other alternatives are possible. Perhaps present interpretations of the mechanism for solvent effects on coupling constants may be seriously deficient or completely wrong. Alternatively, couplings between heavy atoms such as tin and lead may involve factors not present for the lighter elements.
