β¦ Synopsis
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of annealing on molecular mobility in lyophilized glasses, composed of a saccharide excipient and a small concentration of aspartame as a model ''drug.'' Changes in molecular dynamics during annealing were monitored through carbon ( 13 C) T 1 and T 1r nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation times of the aspartame and the saccharides. Two different saccharides were studied, sucrose and trehalose. The local mobility of the aspartame guest was found to correlate closely with the overall structural relaxation monitored through calorimetric methods in the aspartame: sucrose formulation. In general terms, annealing leads to longer NMR relaxation times, indicating a slowing of the local dynamics. By contrast, annealing had only a minimal effect on the NMR relaxation times in aspartame: trehalose. Specificity of solid state NMR in detecting molecular mobility in guest and host molecules showed that sucrose provided a homogenous matrix for the guest drug as compared to the trehalose.

## Abstract This paper presents novel measurements and calculations of the olefinic ^13^C chemical shift tensor principal values in several metal diene complexes. The experimental values and the calculations show shifts as large as 70 ppm with respect to the values in the parent olefinic compounds.
