Abstract

In this work, a new approach is applied to the study of the dynamics of molecular crystals in various polymorphic modifications using the distributions of T1 and T2 relaxation times for proton NMR. The distributions of relaxation times for different polymorphic states of paracetamol and sulfanilamide are obtained and analyzed. The multimodality of distributions is interpreted by the different nature of the motion of atoms located in different places of the crystal lattice. It is shown that the spectra of spin–lattice relaxation times for polymorphs of the same substance are not identical, as the spin–spin relaxation times spectra are. The results obtained may represent a new approach to quality control by the production of pharmaceutical compounds.
