The anisotropy of the chemical shift tensor in solid fluorine has been measured by several independent methods to he (1050*50} x 10-6. This value is slightl,v smaller than the estimated paramagcetic part of the chemical

shift from the spin-rotation

constant in the gaseous

Flliorine is one of ihe few elements that have not b&n studied by NMR in the condensed

.pha&s. In this note we report the anisotropy of the chemica1 shift tensor Aa = IT‘,,- a,for F2 whidh was determined in conjunction with a complete study [l] of the relaxation times and selfdiffusion coefficients in liquid and solid (ol and ,!I phases) F2. Five independent methods were used to evaluate do. These are: (1) determination of the first moment (Ml) of the lineshape, (2) determination of the second moment (M2) of -. the lineshape, ‘-(3) measurement of the separation A between the unshifted “center of the spectrum” and the hilmp in the derivative of the absorption at high field, (4) fitthe lineshape by cdmputer to the theor&c* powder pattern with gaussian broadening and, (5) measurement of the shift (6) between the resonance line in the &quid and the center of the- spectruti of‘the _solid It may readily be shown that

ing the well known relationship [33 between the spin-rotation and chemicaI shift tensors. If this result is valid for the fluorine moiecule in the solid State, the A’Jd = od,, - mddl= (-70&50)x Lo-6 and the anisotropic diamagnetic part _of the chemical shift tensor is negligible as is often assumed. In the gas phase [4], the average diamagnetic art of the chemical shift tezX%X??d= 513 x 10- 8. The liquid state value of ho is within experimental error of the average of methods (1) - (4), but 6 has an uncertainty in the experimental error due to d~~cu~~ in the location of thb precise center of the solid state spectrum.

This &as done bv determinim? the mi&oint between the ‘extremes of the de&&e spectrum. The p-phase of Fz (helow ‘45.4°1Q-is a rel&tivety dense structure 153but it seems very un-. Ukel~ that up could be greatly changed by the perturbation of the eolid state structure. The value of.yA/!3 from.methods (a), (3) and (4) is 9.5 i 0.3 G correspondin&to a value of R = 1.416 O.Olk The gasphase value [6] of R = l-418& 13was calculated from the crystal struc. twe of the Q!-phase to be 2..4 G; best computer fits to the lineshape seemed to be obtained with B = 2.6 CL In view of the nature of the gaussian approximation this discrepancy is to be expected.
