    Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation Studies of Preferential Solvation in Electrolyte Solutions
    (Journal of the Chemical Society : Faraday Transaction - I. The Chemical Society, London. 1978, 74 (07), 1978) Capparelli, Alberto L.; Gill, Dip S.; Hertz, H. Gerhard; Tutsch, Rüdiger; Weingärtner, Hermann
    Formulae are derived which describe the increase in the total proton magnetic relaxation rate relative to the intramolecular relaxation rate in a solvent mixture when solvent molecules of one kind are enriched in the solvation sphere of a dissolved ion. Experimental nuclear magnetic relaxation results regarding the application of these formulae for solutions of Mg(ClO4)2, KI and RbI in water + methanol mixtures are reported. It is shown that preferential solvation effects are present in these systems, they are ascribed to preferential hydration of the cations.
