Slow motion in [ring-fluoro]polycarbonate by CODEX

Chain dynamics in [ring-fluoro]polycarbonate (an A-B alternating copolymer that has a single fluorine substituent on every fourth main chain ring) have been characterized by centerband only detection of exchange (CODEX) and rotating-frame ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation. The slow motions detected by COD...

Zusammenfassung:Chain dynamics in [ring-fluoro]polycarbonate (an A-B alternating copolymer that has a single fluorine substituent on every fourth main chain ring) have been characterized by centerband only detection of exchange (CODEX) and rotating-frame ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation. The slow motions detected by CODEX are facilitated by a mechanically active lattice reorganization that permits a flip of the fluorinated ring about its C₂ axis. Nonfluorinated rings undergo small-amplitude reorientations and C₂ flips, both of which are fast and not CODEX active.
