The hydrogen bonded heterodimer formed between oxirane and hydrogen fluoride has been identified through its infrared and microwave spectra. Rotational constants/MHz and centrifugal distortion constants/kHz for the following isotopic varieties have been derived from an analysis of the rotational spectra in the vibrational ground state: A B A (CH 2 ) 2 160* • -HF 16099 3638.75 3462.31 15.3 25.8 (CH2)2160- • *DF 15984 3605.66 3434.85 14.1 20.9 For the species (CH2)2180 • • • HF only the rotational constants 7059.7 MHz and B — C = 135 MHz could be obtained. It is established from arguments based on Pband A that the dimer has a pyramidal configuration at the oxygen atom and that the molecular point group is (7g. If the justifiable assumption is made that the monomer geometries are unchanged on dimer formation, then the observed rotational constants for (CH 2 )2160* • -H F leadtor0(O* • *F) = 2.627 A ja n d ^ = 71.8°, where ^ is the angle between the plane of the three-membered ring and the H—F direction. Replacement of H by D in the hydrogen bond does not significantly change these values.

Infrared spectra of hydrogen-bonded methyl salicylate have been studied in the temperature range 173–293 K, in solutions of various concentrations (in CCl4) and in the gaseous state. Results show that the molecules form monomerie intramolecular hydrogen bonds in the solid, liquid, and gaseous state. Far-infrared spectra were recorded which give the wavenumber of low-frequency O … O mode used in theoretical reconstruction of the band connected with the O—H stretching vibration. The position and especially the width of this band are determined to a large extent by the influence of the environment.
