Fluxional (or non-rigid) molecules are molecules that undergo dynamics such that some or all of their nuclei interchange, or tunnel, between symmetrically equivalent positions. Because virtually all molecules are fluxional at some time scale, the term fluxional depends on the method used to assess the dynamics.
