Abstract The thiocyanates of the transition metals iron, cobalt, copper as well as of rhenium and of tech-netium appear in solution as strongly coloured complexes. The resonance raman bands in the sol-vent acetonitrile are investigated. To achieve an unambiguous identification the infrared spectra were recorded too. The change in position and structure of the acetonitrile bands indicates strong complexation of iron, cobalt and copper with acetonitrile, thus indicating the existence of mixed acetonitrile-thiocyanate complexes. The resonance raman spectra of the rhenium-and technetium-thiocyanates present as tetramethyl ammonium salts show however no raman-and infrared-bands of complexed acetonitrile molecules.In the raman spectrum of the thiocyanates of iron, cobalt and copper mainly the totally sym-metric C≡N, S-C, Me-S and Me-N valence vibrations are observed, among which the S-C vibration shows a remarkably high intensity. Besides, a series of bands is obtained which is inter-preted partly as caused by decay products, and partly as bands of complexed acetonitrile. The thiocyanates of rhenium and of technetium show the three possible valence vibrations only. The high frequency of the S-C valence indicates the N-coordination of the thiocyanate group.

Resonance-Raman spectra of Japanese-lacquer-tree (Rhus vernicifera) laccase, type-2-copper-depleted laccase and the latter form treated with H2O2 were measured in liquid and frozen solution, on excitation into the 600 nm absorption band. Significant changes in intensity and/or frequency of the bands lying in the 370-430 cm-1 region were observed on freezing, indicating local structural rearrangements taking place at the blue copper site. These findings corroborate previous suggestions based on e.p.r. measurements and redox data [Morpurgo, Calabrese, Desideri & Rotilio (1981) Biochem. J. 193, 639-642]. They show the strong dependence of the physical properties of blue copper centres on local symmetry. Some conclusions on the origin of the Raman bands are also drawn.
