Raman spectroscopy and crystal-field split rotational states of photoproducts CO and H2 after dissociation of formaldehyde in solid argon.
2012
Raman signal is monitored after 248 nm photodissociation of formaldehyde in solid Ar at temperatures of 9-30 K. Rotational transitions J = 2 ← 0 for para-H(2) fragments and J = 3 ← 1 for ortho-H(2) are observed as sharp peaks at 347.2 cm(-1) and 578.3 cm(-1), respectively, which both are accompanied by a broader shoulder band that shows a split structure. The rovibrational spectrum of CO fragments has transitions at 2136.5 cm(-1), 2138.3 cm(-1), 2139.9 cm(-1), and 2149 cm(-1). To explain the observations, we performed adiabatic rotational potential calculations to simulate the Raman spectrum. The simulations indicate that the splitting of rotational transitions is a site effect, where H(2) …
Structural and spectroscopic study of the Br2...3-Br-pyridine complex by DFT calculations.
2007
Abstract The structure and the Raman vibrational spectrum of the complex Br 2 ⋯3-Br-pyridine are determined by DFT calculations using different parametrizations. The calculations are performed taking into account the effects of the dichloromethane as solvent by the CPCM method. A value of 39 kJ mol −1 for the formation enthalpy and of 1 kJ mol −1 for the formation free energy at room temperature in presence of the solvent is found. The predicted Raman spectrum is compared with the experimental one and the essential features of the spectrum are well reproduced by the B3LYP parametrization. The intensity changes of the bands when going from the free moieties to the complex are also generally …
State-to-state vibrational and rotational energy transfer in CO2 gas from time-resolved raman-infrared double resonance experiments
1998
A time-resolved Raman–infrared double resonance technique was used to study collisional relaxation rates of vibrational and rotational energy levels in CO2 gas at 295 K. A pulsed Raman excitation populated a selected rovibrational initial state. Measurements of the rates of transfer from the pumped initial state into specific final states were carried out using time-resolved laser absorption spectroscopy. First, the transfer rates were determined for the five lower vibrational energy levels. In particular, it was confirmed that the rate of transfer between the two Fermi levels (1000) and (0200) is very small [(5.3±0.2)×104 Torr-1 s-1]. The rotational structure inside the (0200) vibrational …

Abstract A complete series of 5-membered heterocycles (Ph 2 Ge) 4 X with X = O, S, Se and Te has been prepared and investigated by mass spectra, 13 C NMR spectra and vibrational spectra. The 13 C signals of the phenyl groups in the compounds (Ph 2 Ge) 4 X were compared with the related values in the homocycle (Ph 2 Ge) 5 . Frequency values for the symmetrical and asymmetrical stretching vibrations of the units GeGeGe and GeXGe are given. The crystal structure of the compound (Ph 2 Ge) 4 S has been determined and refined to a R of 0.051. The 5-membered ring Ge 4 S exhibits envelope conformation.
Synthesis and low-frequency vibrational spectra of some halo- and pseudohalo-diphenylantimonates(V)
1976
Abstract The syntheses of diphenylantimonates(V) of the type M(I) [PH 2 XbX 4 ] (M(I) = PH 4 As; X = F, Cl, Br, N 3 , NCS; X 4 = Cl 3 Br, Cl 3 N 3 ) are described. Far-Ir spectra of these compounds and of previously synthesized M(I) [Ph 2 SbCl 3 X] species (M(I) = Me 4 N; X = Cl, Br, N 3 ; M(I) = Ph 4 As; X = NCS) are reported. Raman spectra of tetrafluoro and tetrachloro salts are also given. Vibrational data are interpreted in terms of the presence of solid of trans -Ph 2 SbX 4 - species and assignments of skeletal modes are suggested.
Ultrafast Electronic and Vibrational Energy Relaxation of Fe(acetylacetonate)3 in Solution
2007
Transient mid-infrared spectroscopy is used to probe the dynamics initiated by excitation of ligand-to-metal (400 nm) and metal-to-ligand (345 nm) charge transfer states of FeIII complexed with acetylacetonate (Fe(acac)3, where acac stands for deprotonated anion of acetylacetone) in solution. Transient spectra in the 1500-1600 cm-1 range show two broad absorptions red-shifted from the bleach of the nu(CO) (approximately 1575 cm-1) and nu(C=C) (approximately 1525 cm-1) ground state absorptions. Bleach recovery kinetics has a time constant of 12-19 ps in chloroform and tetrachloroethylene and it decreases by 30-40% in a 10% mixture of methanol in tetrachloroethylene. The transient absorptions…
Anharmonic vibrational frequency calculations for solvated molecules in the B3LYP Kohn–Sham basis set limit
2012
Abstract The solvent dependence of harmonic and anharmonic vibrational wavenumbers of water, formaldehyde and formamide was studied using the B3LYP method. The results obtained with the hierarchy of Jensen's polarization-consistent basis sets were fitted with two-parameter formula toward the B3LYP Kohn–Sham complete basis set (CBS) limit. Anharmonic corrections have been obtained by a second order perturbation treatment (VPT2) and vibrational configuration interaction (VCI) method. The solvent environment was treated according to the self-consistent reaction field polarizable continuum model (SCRF PCM) approach.
Total Synthesis of (±)-Oxalicumone C and Chiral Resolution and Elucidation of Its Absolute Configuration
2014
The racemic total synthesis, the chiral resolution, and the elucidation of the absolute configuration of the natural product oxalicumone C were investigated. The goal was achieved by a synthetic strategy beginning with the synthesis of a 5-hydroxy-7-methylchromone precursor. Further modification possibilities were achieved by introduction of a vinyl moiety into the chromone, which was based on a selective iodination step in the 3-position. Further transformations furnished the racemic natural product. To determinate the absolute configuration of naturally occurring oxalicumone C, both enantiomers were separated by chiral HPLC. Comparison of the calculated and experimental vibrational circul…
Ab initio calculations and vibrational spectroscopy on the phenylenediamine isomers
1998
Molecular orbital calculations at HF and MP2 levels have been performed using the 6-3IG** basis set for full geometry optimization of the phenylenediamine isomers. Our results show that only a transoid conformer is found for o-phenylenediamine, whereas cis and trans conformers exist for m- and p-phenylenediamine. Vibrational normal modes have been also analyzed for the gas phase and in chloroform solution, and compared with experimental data we have obtained using FTIR spectroscopy. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
Excitonic energy level structure and pigment-protein interactions in the recombinant water-soluble chlorophyll protein. II. Spectral hole-burning exp…
2011
Persistent spectral hole burning at 4.5 K has been used to investigate the excitonic energy level structure and the excited state dynamics of the recombinant class-IIa water-soluble chlorophyll-binding protein (WSCP) from cauliflower. The hole-burned spectra are composed of four main features: (i) a narrow zero-phonon hole (ZPH) at the burn wavelength, (ii) a number of vibrational ZPHs, (iii) a broad low-energy hole at ~665 and ~683 nm for chlorophyll b- and chlorophyll a-WSCP, respectively, and (iv) a second satellite hole at ~658 and ~673 nm for chlorophyll b- and chlorophyll a-WSCP, respectively. The doublet of broad satellite holes is assigned to an excitonically coupled chlorophyll dim…
