The free base HCQ and more ordered hydrated HCQS also show the methyl rotation peak at the same position, in agreement with their similar activation energies (for the broad dynamic component) presented in Figure 7 . This suggests that the effect of hydration on the activation energy for the methyl group rotation may be due to the disorder introduced by the water molecules in the main hydrated and less ordered hydrated HCQS samples. While the upper panels of Figures 10 and 11 show the measured spectra, the lower panels present a comparison of the difference spectra between the main hydrated and dry HCQS samples to the spectra of H 2 O ice-Ih (5 K) and liquid water (295 K) as well as the structural H 2 O in WO 3 ·H 2 O data. ./cache/cord-030409-bwxkxvsl.txt ./txt/cord-030409-bwxkxvsl.txt
