✦ Synopsis

The resoIved chemical shicidinp anisotropy of J 3C in solid txnzcne atlows a study of nuclear spin rek?xation for lxnzene molecu'les with different orientations.

As expected from a simple theory, the relasation is strongly orientntion dependent due to the strongly snisotropic motion of the benzene molecule (which consists of reorientation about the hesad a%). Preliminary drtta are presented which exhibit qu~ntjt3ti~c agreement between theory and results for the 1% snisotropic nuclear spin-Iattice rci;tsation and for the 1% anisotr3pic nuclear Overhauser enhance-
