Summary:. The proton nuclear magnetic resonance spin–lattice relaxation time has been successfully used to evidence the reorientation of the imidazolium rings in carboxylic acid salts of imidazole: imidazolium oxalate, imidazolium adipate monohydrate and diimidazolium suberate. The process occurs in the temperature range between 325 K and the melting point of the salts (523, 379 and 360 K) and is described by a single activation energy of 20, 48 and 66 kJ/mol for imidazolium oxalate, imidazolium adipate monohydrate and diimidazolium suberate, respectively. The studied salts are considered as possible candidate materials for fuel-cell membranes.
