Zusammenfassung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>New methods for probing dynamical properties of biological macromolecules on the millisecond timescale will enable a better understanding of the structure–function relationship. In this article, three solid‐state NMR detection methods, line‐shape analysis, two‐dimensional exchange experiments, and a variant of the center‐band only detection of exchange (CODEX) experiment called R‐CODEX, are used to characterize a crystalline amino acid that serves as a model for motions in solid proteins, <jats:sc>L</jats:sc>‐phenylalanine hydrochloride. The millisecond ring flip motion of the aromatic ring in <jats:sc>L</jats:sc>‐phenylalanine hydrochloride is characterized in detail for the first time. Limitations of these experiments for processes involving submillisecond timescales are also discussed. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Concepts Magn Reson Part A 42A: 14–22, 2013.</jats:p>
