Abstract: | The α-methylene segment of benzyl alcohol has been deuterated at one site and the proton—deuterium dipole spin interaction measured for this compound dissolved in bilayers of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine. These data, when combined with measured deuterium quadrupole interactions at other sites, allow for a more complete understanding of the orientational ordering and conformation of benzyl alcohol in the bilayers. Models for the rotary motion of the ring are discussed. |
