## Abstract A molecular theory is presented for the field‐dependent spin‐lattice relaxation time of water in tissue. The theory attributes the large relaxation enhancement observed at low frequencies to intermediary protons in labile groups or internal water molecules that act as relaxation sinks f

✦ Synopsis
Proton spin-lattice relaxation rate constants have been measured as a function of magnetic field strength for water, water-glycerol solution, cyclohexane, methanol, benzene, acetone, acetonitrile, and dimethyl sulfoxide. The magnetic relaxation dispersion is well approximated by a Lorentzian shape. The origin of the relaxation dispersion is identified with the paramagnetic contribution from molecular oxygen. In the small molecule cases studied here, the effective correlation time for the electron-nuclear coupling may include contributions from both translational diffusion and the electron T(1). The electron T(1) for molecular oxygen dissolved in several solvents was found to be approximately 7.5 ps and nearly independent of solvent or viscosity.
