Nuclear quadrupole and magnetic resonance studies of structure and the molecular motion in SYMC6Cl3F3

³⁵Cl and ¹⁹F relaxation time measurements were carried out on symC₆Cl₃F₃. The analyses of the ¹⁹F high-resolution NMR spectra and the ³⁵Cl spin-lattice relaxation time showed that the crystal belongs to a trigonal or a hexagonal crystal system in which the molecules undergo three-fold reorientation about the molecular figure axis with the correlation time τ_c/s=3.42·10^?7 exp(18.2 kJ mol^?1/RT). Temperature dependences of the ³⁵Cl NQR frequency and ¹⁹F spin-lattice relaxation times are such that only a minor structural change is associated with the phase transition at 296 K.
