Survey of Experimental Results and Their Interpretation

As can be seen from Subsections 2.1,1 and 2.1.2 the quadrupole relaxation rate, dominating chlorine, bromine and iodine relaxation, is in 

Clearly, the vast majority of halogen relaxation studies are concerned with obtaining information about x. The correlation time may in turn be used for example to test models of molecular reorientation or to obtain information on association phenomena. In Tables 2.1 - 2.3 we have collected data from the literature on NMR relaxation of chlorine, bromine and iodine in covalent environments. (Previously a similar collection has been presented by Hall [87].)
