Complete assignment of the fundamental vibrations of the two benzene valence isomers, Dewar benzene (bicyclo[2,2,0]hexa-2,5-diene) and benzvalene (tricyclo[3,1,0,02,6]hex-3-ene) based on infrared and Raman spectra are reported. Both molecules exhibit abnormal C=C stretching frequencies indicative of σ-π interaction between the strained bridge bond(s) and the π-bonds. The ?wing flapping? mode of Dewar benzene occurs at 381 cm-1.

The infrared and Raman spectra of H2S3 and H2S4 in CCl4 and CS2 solutions are reported and a complete assignment is presented. On the basis of the spectra and their temperature and concentration dependence, H2S3 is considered to be in the GG and H2S4 in the GG′G conformation. A valence force field is derived which provides a least-squares fit between observed and calculated frequencies for both molecules simultaneously, with an average error of 1.5 cm−1 (or 0.4%) over all frequencies.

The infrared and Raman spectra of the naphthalene-α-d4 molecule have been obtained. The spectra of the d0 molecule have also been repeated and for the most part previous measurements have been confirmed. Together with the literature data for the naphthalene-d8 molecule, a complete assignment has been presented for all three molecules. It is recognized that the assignment is not definitive, although satisfactory agreement with the requirements of the band polarizations and contours, as well as product and sum rules, has been obtained. The calculated and observed values for the heat capacity and entropy are also in good agreement.

The infrared and Raman spectra of M2[V2O2(O2)4(H2O)]·xH2O and M2[V2O2(O2)4(D2O)]·xD2O (M = N(CH3)4, Cs) were measured. In the region of the vanadium-oxygen stretching vibrations, the spectra were interpreted based on normal coordinate analysis, employing empirical correlations between the bond lengths and force constants.

A stoichiometric complex of formula (COOH)2•2H2O•18-crown-6 has been obtained from oxalic acid and the macrocyclic polyether 18-crown-6. The crystals of the complex have a monoclinic unit cell and belong to the P21/c space group. The components in the adduct are linked through hydrogen bonds in a polymer-like fashion: -crown–H2O–HOOCCOOH–OH2–crown–, where the oxalic acid molecules are present in two distinct disordered orientations. The infrared and Raman spectra of the complex are also reported and interpreted.

The infrared and Raman spectra of the complex salts K5[Mn(CN)6], K5[Tc(CN)6] and K5[Re(CN)s] have been recorded in the range from 4000 to 40 cm-1. All expected fundamental vibrations have been observed and could be assigned to the irreducible representations of the sym­metry point group Oh . The calculation of the force constants is based on the concept of the generalized valence force field. The low CN-valence force constants indicate the relatively strong Π-bonding character of the metal carbon bond, which is especially pronounced for K5[Tc(CN)6).

Pb2P2Se6 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group Pn (No. 13) with the lattice constantsa = 974.2 (4) pm. b = 766.2 (3) pm. c = 689.8 (3) pm, β=91.44(5)°.The title compound is isotypic to the homologous Pb2P2S6. In the structure there are discrete P2Se4-6 anions.Far infrared, infrared and Raman spectra of this compound have been recorded. The observed frequencies are assigned on the basis of P2Se4-6 units with C2h symmetry in the crystal. DTA-data have been determined and interpreted.
