TLDR
In this article, the paramagnetic term of the nuclear magnetic shielding constant, σ p, was calculated from the chemical shift of nuclear resonance, which provides a general method for estimating spin-rotation interaction constants.
Abstract
Spin-rotation interaction constants, c, are calculated from the paramagnetic term of the nuclear magnetic shielding constant, σ p, using a relationship originally due to Ramsey. Calculated values show excellent agreement with experimental determinations from molecular beam measurements. Since σ p can be easily estimated from the chemical shift of the nuclear resonance this provides a general method for estimating spin-rotation interaction constants. Chemical shift anisotropies allow the components c ⊥ and c ‖ of the spin-rotation interaction tensor to be determined. Generally both components have the same sign and are of similar magnitude. The r.m.s. value of the spin-rotation interaction constant, required to calculate nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times, is not expected to differ appreciably from average values obtained from molecular beam measurements or magnetic shielding. Values for the molecular angular velocity correlation time, τ sr, calculated directly from nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times...

Rotational Correlation Times in Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation

TL;DR: In this paper, rotational correlation times in nuclear magnetic relaxation are investigated. But rotational motion of molecules in the gas phase is well represented by the equipartition of energy theorem and the laws of statistical mechanics, both of which are premised on the view that, except during instantaneous collisions, the molecules move independently of one another.

Theory of Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation by Spin-Rotational Interactions in Liquids

TL;DR: The contribution of spin-rotational interactions to the nuclear magnetic relaxation of identical spin-textonehalf{} nuclei at equivalent positions in spherical liquid molecules is calculated by use of the semiclassical form of the density-operator theory of relaxation, and the result is compared with the contributions of intra-and intermolecular dipole-dipole interactions.

Spin—Rotation Interaction and Magnetic Shielding in Molecules

TL;DR: In this paper, the spin-rotation constants were derived in terms of the average excitation energy, average value of (1/r3), and the charge-bond order matrix of the associated LCAO-MO functions.
