Experimental Values

The Raman spectra (3200–50 cm−1) of gaseous, liquid, and solid 2-chloropropane-d3 (isopropyl-d3 chloride), CH3(CD3)CHCl, and the infrared spectra (3200–50 cm−1) of the gas and solid have been recorded. The torsional transitions observed in the far infrared spectrum of the gaseous sample recorded at a resolution of 0.10 cm−1 between 265 and 135 cm−1 were analyzed in terms of the semirigid rotor model. An effective barrier of 1378 ± 4 cm−1 (3.94 ± 0.01 kcal/mol), cosine–cosine coupling term of 166 ± 10 cm−1 (0.47 ± 0.03 kcal/mol), and sine–sine coupling term of −173 ± 1 cm−1 (−0.49 ± 0.01 kcal/mol) were determined by fitting ten observed frequencies arising from the CH3 and CD3 torsions. The assignment of the 27 fundamentals is given and discussed. A complete equilibrium geometry, barrier to internal rotation, and vibrational frequencies have been determined by ab initio Hartree–Fock gradient calculations employing either 3-21G* or 6-31G* basis sets for both the d0 and d3 species. These calculated results are compared to the experimental values as well as to the corresponding quantities for some similar molecules. Key words: 2-chloropropane, vibrational spectrum; ab initio calculations; barrier to internal rotation.
