A careful examination of the Raman and infrared spectra of the crystalline planar complexes cis-and trans-MX2•2RCN, where M = Pd or Pt, X = Cl or Br, and R = Me or Ph, reveals intense absorption bands in the 125–80 cm−1 region which can be assigned to modes involving stretching of the metal–nitrogen bonds. Alternative assignments for v(M—N) are also discussed. These results are compared with those for other metal halide – RCN systems. The complexes trans-PtBr2•2RCN are described for the first time.

Infrared spectra of ϵ-Zn(OH)2, β-ZnOHCl, ZnOHF, Zn5(OH)8Cl2, and Zn5(OH)8Cl2·H2O and their deuterated analogues in the range 2.5–16 μ are reported for the first time. The effects of substituting a halogen for an OH group in Zn(OH)2 are (i) sharper OH stretching absorption bands, (ii) splitting of bands involving OH to give distinct doublets in ZnOHF and Zn5(OH)8Cl2, indicating strong intermolecular coupling, and (iii) shift of the OH stretching vibration to a higher frequency. Strong absorption bands are observed in the region of 695–780 cm−1 for all compounds and also near 1 020 ± 30 cm−1 in all cases except ZnOHCl. All the observed bands are displaced to lower frequencies by the deuterated analogues, with vH/vD ratios in the range 1.30–1.36. A cursory interpretation of the spectra of ZnOHCl and ZnOHF is given in terms of a planar molecule of Cs symmetry, but the unambiguous assignment of the bands must await a site group or group factor analysis.

A number of different methods for preparing anionic Group 1B metal thiolate complexes have been investigated. The compounds [Me4N] [CU2(SMe)3] and [Et4N] [Ag5(SBut)6] are reported for the first time, and new methods for preparing the previously known compounds [Et4N] [Cu5(SBut)6], [Me4N]2 [CU5(SPh)7] and [Et4N]2 [Cu5(SPh)7] are described. The far-infrared spectra of the above compounds, and of CuSMe, CuSBut, AgSBut, [Me4N]2 [CU4(SPh)6] and [Me4N]2 [Ag5(SPh)7] have been obtained, and metal-sulfur stretching bands are assigned in the 150-350 cm-1 region. The low-frequency Raman spectra have also been obtained for some of these compounds. Possible structures for the new compounds are considered in the light of the low-frequency vibrational spectra.

The infrared (3500 to 300 cm−1) spectra of methylisothiocyanate, ethylisothiocyanate, isopropylisothiocyanate, and cyclopropylisothiocyanate isolated in argon and nitrogen matrices have been recorded. In general, the spectra were more complex in the nitrogen matrices and, for ethylisothiocyanate, nearly all of the fundamentals appeared as doublets in the nitrogen matrix but for the most part as single bands in the argon matrix. No evidence could be found for a second conformer for either ethylisothiocyanate or isopropylisothiocyanate. Even though cyclopropylisothiocyanate has been shown to exist as the cis and trans conformers at ambient temperature, little conclusive evidence could be found for two isomers in the infrared matrix material. The complex spectra observed in the NCS antisymmetric stretching region as well as in the 520 cm−1 region appear to arise in part from combinations involving the low-frequency large amplitude CNC bend or asymmetric torsion of these organoisothiocyanate molecules. It appears that the vibrational spectra of these molecules are not sensitive to the orientation of the NCS moiety.

Infrared absorption spectra of 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (dmp), dmp 0.5H2O, dmp 2H2O, and dmp HClO4 have been obtained over the range 4000-650 cm-1. Bands between 1610 and 1545 cm-1 are attributed to stretching vibrations within the phenanthroline ring system. The in-phase out-of-plane motion of the ring hydrogen atoms is associated with intense absorption at 845 cm-1. A strong band is observed at 728 cm-1 which cannot be accounted for in terms of an out-of-plane CH deformation. The perchlorate is characterized by shifts of the strongest absorption bands observed in the spectra of dmp and the hydrates.

Infrared spectra of hexagonal Cd(OH)2, CdOHCl, and CdOHF, along with deuterated analogues CdODCl and CdODF, in the range 2.5–16 μ are reported for the first time. The effects of substituting a halogen for an OH group in Cd(OH)2 are (i) shift of OH stretching vibration to a lower frequency and (ii) appearance of strong absorption bands in the region 8–16 μ. All the observed bands in the deuterated analogues are displaced to lower frequencies with νH/νd ratios between 1.35–1.37. The spectra of CdOHCl and CdOHF show a high correlation with their zinc analogues and although both spectra appear consistent with a simple molecule of Cs or C1 symmetry, an alternate interpretation is given in terms of OH lattice vibrations.

Abstract Halliburton Company v Chubb Bermuda Insurance Ltd (formerly known as Ace Bermuda Insurance Ltd [2020] UKSC 48 is an important case not only to the UK but also to the international arbitration community for several reasons: first, it examines indispensable duties in international arbitration and for the first time recognises and explicates upon the duty of disclosure at the highest court of the United Kingdom; secondly, it addresses and clarifies key concepts in international arbitration; thirdly, it confirms the objective nature of the test of justifiable doubts which has wider implications for other arbitral forums; fourthly, it illustrates how the duties of impartiality, disclosure, and confidentiality interact with and affect each other and how the key concepts should be applied to this interaction; and finally, it lays down useful guidance for arbitrators. For these reasons, this case deserves close and careful examination. This article aims to explain the significance of the aforesaid and suggests that, in addition to what has been addressed, further judicial explanations are warranted in what other aspects.

Sulfated derivatives of polysaccharides have anticoagulant, hypolipedimic and other biological activity. In this work, a complex mixed ester of galactomannan, its sulfate-citrate, was obtained for the first time. The introduction of citrate and sulfate groups was proved by FTIR spectroscopy by the appearance of corresponding absorption bands. It was shown by X-ray diffraction that the introduction of the citrate group leads to the amorphization of the galactomannan structure.

Infrared spectra show both free and hydrogen bonded hydroxyl absorption in several trans-2-alkoxy-3-hydroxytetrahydrofurans. The extent of non-bonded hydroxyl is greater than that of bonded hydroxyl. Suggestions are made of possible conformations which might account for the infrared data.
