Fig. 4. (A) Variable temperature 13C NMR spectra of the CPOS-5/13CO2 sample under static conditions. The chemical shift anisotropic lineshape of solid CO2, simulated starting from the main tensor components, is reported below for comparison. (B) Inclination angle (θ) of the CO2 main-axis with respect to the reorientation-axis z about which the 90° (φ angle) jump occurs. (C) Screwing mechanism for CO2 rototranslational dynamics in the channel: the 90° rotation angle of CO2 projection onto the ab-plane and along the channel c-axis for CO2 reorientation from one site to the next. (D) Overlay of the CO2 positions along the channel as calculated by the DFT transition state method. (E) Helical trajectory of one CO2 oxygen atom (red spheres) about the channel axis (blue bar). (F) Arrhenius plot of reorientational rates (k) versus the inverse of temperature. (G) Calculated energy profile for the rototranslation of CO2 along the channel.
