Influence of Magnetic Field on the Mobility of Aromatic Chiral Molecules
The influence of magnetic fields on the properties of chiral molecules is of great interest nowadays. This work presents an H-1 NMR study of the mobility of 1-phenylethanol and 1-phenyl-1-propanol molecules in pure forms and in chirally polarized mixtures in external magnetic fields. Molecular mobility is shown to be dependent on the strength of the external magnetic field and chiral mixing. It could be,assumed that the mobility changes are caused by rotational and magnetic interactions between induced magnetic moments of the aromatic molecules and the external magnetic field; intermolecular interactions are also essential. The results are important for the tasks related to enantiomer separation.
