Absorption bands of NCS between 3300 Å and 4000 Å have been assigned to two electronic band systems, A(2Πi) – X(2Πi) with its origin at 26 054 cm−1, and B(2Σ+) – X(2Πi) with its origin at 26 844 cm−1. Rotational analyses have been carried out for the stronger bands, yielding rotational constants B0 = 0.2036 cm−1 (A state), B0 = 0.1906 cm−1 (A state), and B0 = 0.1969 cm−1 (B state). In addition to vibronic interactions within the two 2Πi states (Renner effect) there is considerable evidence for vibronic interaction between the A(2Πi) and B(2Σ+) states.

Rotational assignments are given for about 350 lines in the (0,9,0)–(0,0,0), (0,10,0)–(0,0,0), and (0,11,0)–(0,0,0) bands in the electronic absorption spectrum of NHD. The Σ and Δ sub-bands have been identified for the bands with ν2′ odd and the Π sub-band for the band with ν2′ even.Ground state rotational and spin–rotational constants have been determined. The principal constants in reciprocal centimetres are: A = 20.1162(32), B = 8.1114(16), C = 5.6681(16), εaa = −0.2324(51),εbb = −0.0373ε, εcc = −0.0019ε, where the error limits are 1σ. Term values are tabulated for both the ground and excited state levels.Several 'axis-switching' branches have been identified in agreement with the predictions of Hougen and Watson.

New trinuclear rhodium(III) complexes, [Rh3(μ3-O)(μ-CH3COO)6(L)3]+ (L = imidazole (Him), 1-methylimidazole (Meim), and 4-methylpyridine (Mepy)) have been prepared. The Him, Meim, and Mepy complexes show reversible one-electron oxidation waves at E1/2 = +1.12, +1.12, and +1.28 V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively, in acetonitrile. Electronic absorption spectra of the one electron oxidized species of these complexes and [Rh3(μ3-O)(μ-CH3COO)6(py)3]+ (py = pyridine) (E1/2 = +1.32 V ) were obtained by spectroelectrochemical techniques. While the Rh3(III,III,III) states show no strong visible absorption, the Rh3(III,III,IV ) species give a band at ca. 700 nm (ε = 3390-5540 mol dm-3 cm-1). [Ir3(μ3-O)(μ-CH3COO)6(py)3]+ with no strong absorption in the visible region, shows two reversible one-electron oxidation waves at +0.68 and +1.86 V in acetonitrile. The electronic absorption spectrum of the one-electron oxidized species (Ir3(III,III,IV )) also shows some absorption bands (688 nm (ε, 5119), 1093 (2325) and 1400 (ca. 1800)). It is suggested that the oxidation removes an electron from the fully occupied anti-bonding orbital based on metal-dπ-μ3-O-pπ interactions, the absorption bands of the (III,III,IV ) species being assigned to transitions to the anti-bonding orbital.

An electronic absorption spectrum, attributed to phenyl, has been observed in the visible region with origin at 18 908 cm -1 after flash photolysis of benzene and halogenobenzenes. Similar spectra of fluoro, chloro and bromo phenyl are observed after flash photolysis of disubstituted benzenes. The vibrational structure of the phenyl spectrum has been analysed in terms of two fundamental frequencies at 571 and 896 cm -1 which correspond to the e 2 g and a 1 g frequencies of the B 2 u state of benzene. The ground state of phenyl has a π 6 n electronic configuration and the observed transition is interpreted as 2 A 1 → 2 B 1 resulting from a π → n excitation.
