Measurement of proton tunneling in short hydrogen bonds in single crystals of 3,5 pyridinedicarboxylic acid using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

In this letter, we present NMR spin-lattice and relaxometry data for proton transfer in one of the shortest known N-H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds in a single crystal of 3,5 pyridinedicarboxylic acid (35PDCA). It is widely believed that proton transfer by quantum tunnelling does not occur in short hydrogen bo...
