Abstract A method for the adjustment of force constants from vibrational frequencies is presented. It re-presents an alternative to the various types of least-squares procedures which are widely used in force constant calculations, and avoids some of the well-known divergence difficulties which may occur in such least-squares iterations. Solving a system of normal equations is replaced by two simpler operations which cannot become ill-conditioned by singularities. The method applies preferably to cases where the number of excess data is small or zero.

Abstract The complete series of tetrakis(halomercuri)methanes C(HgX)4 (X = F, Cl, Br and I) was prepared by metathesis of tetrakis(acetoxymercuri)methane and aqueous hydrofluoric acid and solutions of halides (Cl-, Br-, and I-), respectively. All compounds are insoluble in most common solvents, but partly soluble in dimethylsulfoxide. Complete vibrational spectra indicate more or less ideally tetrahedral molecules C(HgX)4 in all cases. The originally triply degenerate valence vibrations of the CHg4 entities and the force constants for the C-Hg bonds show distinct correlations with the electronegativities of the halides X. On the other hand the totally symmetrical valence vibrations of CHg4 were found to be highly sensitive to variations in X, mainly due to coupling with the valence vibrations of the Hg-X-groups of the same symmetry species. Some analogies in the vibrational behaviour of the CHg4 fragments and of the isosteric NHg4 core in tetramercurioammonium complexes were observed and discussed.

The IR spectra of gaseous CF3Cl and CF3Br with natural isotopic abundances have been investigated in the region 1830-1900 cm-1 with a resolution of 0.01 cm-1 or better using a Q-switched spin-flip Raman laser (SFRL). Both J and K structure of the parallel band (v1 + v2) have been resolved partly for both isotopomers of CF3Cl and CF3Br, respectively. The analysis has been performed by the usual least squares method. Additionally the J clusters of some hot bands have been observed and analyzed.

Abstract The orbital valence force field (OVFF), and the Urey-Bradley force field (UBFF) have been employed to calculate the force constants for six molecules and ions (AlCl4-, AlBr4-, AlI4-, Til4- , Os16O4 , and Os18O4). The results have been discussed in the light of the relative stability of the bonds. The applicability of the Lennard-Jones potential is also examined. The kinetic constants have been computed and the results have been correlated with the corresponding force constants.
