Normal coordinate analyses including calculations of PED's were performed for C2H4.PtCl3 system modelling Zeise's anion, [(C2H4)PtCl3]-. The wedgewise distorsion of the C2H4 ligand known from the crystallographic data for Zeise's salt, was taken into account. Under these circumstances it was found that the kinematic couplings between the internal ligand and complex framework vibrational modes are rather small. The reliability of some existing assignments of the fundamental frequencies of Zeise's anion is discussed.

The structures and conformational stabilities of phenylphosphonic acid and phenylthiophosphonic acid were investigated using calculations mostly at DFT/6-311G** and ab initio MP2/6-311G** level. From the calculations the molecules were predicted to exist in a conformational equilibrium consisting of two conformers which as enantiomers have the same energy, but rather unexpected dihedral angles XPCC (X being O or S) which are not equal to zero. The antisymmetric potential function for the internal rotation was determined for each one of the molecules. In these functions the conformers with zero dihedral angles appear to be stable minima (also optimization converges to this), but the vibrational frequency for the torsion turned out to be imaginary, indicating that they are maxima with respect to this symmetry coordinate. Only optimization without any restrictions and starting from a non-zero torsional angle converged to a real minimum with such a geometry (“non-planar”). For that minimum structure infrared and Raman spectra were calculated, and those for phenylphosphonic acid were compared to experimental data, showing satisfactory agreement. This gives confidence to present the spectra of phenylthiophosphonic acid as a prediction. The rather low intensity of the OH bands in the experimental infrared spectrum (as compared to normal organic acids) indicates rather weak hydrogen bonding. Normal coordinate calculations were carried out, and potential energy distributions were calculated for the molecules in the non (near)-planar conformations providing a complete assignment of the vibrational modes to atomic motions in the molecules. From the rather low rotational barriers we conclude, in agreement with results from the literature (for other P=O compounds) based on localized orbitals that conjugation effects are absent - or at least negligible - as compared to electrostatic and steric ones in determining the structures of the stable conformers in the phenyl derivatives. The P=O (and also the P=S) bond is highly polarized according to our analysis of Mulliken populations. The polarization turned out to be smaller in the thiophosphonic acid due to the smaller electronegativity of sulfur as compared to oxygen.

Photoexcitation of internal proton transfer in the tinuvin molecule causes the excitation of some low frequency vibrational modes which oscillate with high amplitudes in a coherent manner over 700 fs. Such effect is observed for the first time applying two color pump/probe measurement with 25 fs pulses. Based on resonance Raman spectra a normal coordinate analysis of the modes is performed. It is shown that the nuclear movement given by the normal vibration of one of the modes serves to open up a barrierfree proton transfer path.

This work deals with the vibrational spectroscopy of Ethyl benzoate (C9H10O2). The fundamental vibrational frequencies and intensity of vibrational bands were evaluated using density functional theory (DFT) using standard HF/6-31G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) methods and basis set combinations. The vibrational spectra were interpreted, with the aid of normal coordinate analysis based on a scaled quantum mechanical force field. The infrared and Raman spectra were also predicted from the calculated intensities. Comparison of simulated spectra with the experimental spectra provides important information about the ability of the computational method to describe the vibrational modes.

The infrared spectra of substituted acetylacetonates have been discussed in the light of normal coordinate analysis of bis-(monothioacetylacetonato) Ni(II) assuming methyl groups as point masses. The Urey-Bradley potential constants evaluated are found to be quite close to those of analogous systems studied earlier. The calculations show that each of the fundamental bands results from vibrational modes involving appreciable contributions from a number of bonds. The single major contribution from the stretching of C = S has been found in the 723 cm−1 band. This is in agreement with the other conjugated systems, like thioamides, studied earlier.

Abstract In the reaction of K2[OsX3 Y3] with boiling water/acetylacetone (1:1) the six mixed com­plexes cis-and trans-[OsX2 (acac)2] (X ≠ Y = Cl, Br, I) are formed, which have been purified by column chromatography with toluene on silica gel. The IR and Raman spectra (10K) show the intraligand vibrations of the acac groups with nearly constant frequencies and the stretching vibrations of OsO in the range 460-696, of OsCl at 315-345, of OsBr at 210-225, and of Osl at 160-175 cm-1 . A normal coordinate analysis based on a modified valence force field was performed for trans-[OsClBr(acac)2] and the vibrational modes have been assigned. With a set of 32 force constants, taking into account the intraligand vibrations, a good agreement between observed and calculated frequencies has been achieved. The valence force constants are fd (OsCl•) = 1.75, fd(OsBr′) = 1.63 and fd (OsO) = 3.27 mdyn/Å.

The infrared and Raman spectra of the series of iodo(methyl)germanes, CH3GeI3, (CH3)2GeI2, and (CH3)3GeI have been recorded. A normal coordinate analysis based on a modified valence force field confirms the a priori assignments for all of the fundamental frequencies except the torsional modes.

ABSTRACTWe have studied the properties of Be dopants in GaN using first principles calculations. Substitutional Be on a Ga site acts as an acceptor, but interstitial Be poses a potential problem because of its low formation energy and donor character. We study the diffusion of interstitial Be and find it to be highly anisotropic. We also study the formation of complexes between substitutional and interstitial Be, and between substitutional Be and hydrogen. We have calculated the Be-H vibrational modes to aid in experimental identification of such complexes.

ABSTRACT. Solid phase FTIR and FT-Raman spectra of 1, 8-dimethylnaphthalene have been recorded in the region 3700-50 cm-1. The spectra were interpreted with aid of normal coordinate analysis based on DFT using standard B3LYP/6-31G basis sets. After scaling there is good agreement between observed and calculated frequencies. Comparison of the simulated spectra with the experimental spectra provides important information about the ability of the computational method to describe the vibrational modes.

The previously unreported infrared and Raman spectra of thiocarbonyl chlorofluoride have been obtained and analyzed. An assignment has been made for the in-plane fundamental frequencies. The frequency of the out-of-plane fundamental has been obtained from a partial analysis of the near ultra-violet (π*n) system. Normal coordinate analyses for thiocarbonyl fluoride and thiocarbonyl chlorofluoride have been carried out using the Urey–Bradley potential field. The value of the CS stretching force constant is found to show a marked change with the halogen substitution in contrast to the CO stretching constant in the carbonyl halides. This is attributed to the presence of ionic valence bond structures in the thiocarbonyl halides which are not significant in the carbonyl halides.
