Normal coordinate analysis of the optically active vibrations of doped lanthanum copper oxide (La2– x M xCuO4) has been made, with the assumption of an infinite [(CuO2)O2]6– layer model. On the basis of the results of this treatment, some of the observed bands so far reported have been successfully assigned to the Cu-O lattice vibrations. The force constants concerning Cu-O bonds have been obtained within the framework of a modified valence force field. It has been found that the present analysis based on the infinite layer model is useful for assigning the relatively high vibrational frequencies observed at the center (wave vector k = 0) of the first Brillouin zone in La2– x M xCuO4.

Normal coordinate analyses of the optically active vibrations of LiUF6 and α-NaUF6 have been made, with the assumption of an idealized structural model. On the basis of the results of this treatment, all of the observed bands so far reported have been successfully assigned to the intramolecular vibrations (UF6−) as well as the optically active lattice vibrations [M+(Li, Na) … UF6−]. The force constants concerning U-F and M-F bonds have been obtained within the framework of the modified valence force field. It has been found that the present analysis, based on a whole crystal, is powerful not only for assigning the optically active lattice vibrations but also for elucidating the vibronic structure of the electronic absorption spectra obtained at low-temperature measurements.

The vibrational spectra and previous normal coordinate analyses of GaCl3 are reviewed. The valence force field (VFF), Keating force field (KFF) and central force field (CFF) are investigated, taking into account isotopic frequency shifts and the mass influence on Coriolis constants. It seems that KFF is an appropriate force field approximation. In its definition a new type of internal coordinates, the Keating's bending, is invoked. A final force Field is tentatively determined and used to calculate the mean amplitudes of vibration.

Vibrational spectra and normal coordinate calculations of polydichlorophosphazene (PDP) are presented. The valence force field derived previously from the two conformers of octachlorocyclotetraphosphazene was directly transferred to a distorted “cis-plan” helical model of PDP without refinement. A reasonable agreement between the observed and calculated frequencies was obtained and the assignment of the normal modes of PDP is discussed.

The infrared and Raman spectra of the series of iodo(methyl)germanes, CH3GeI3, (CH3)2GeI2, and (CH3)3GeI have been recorded. A normal coordinate analysis based on a modified valence force field confirms the a priori assignments for all of the fundamental frequencies except the torsional modes.

Normal coordinate calculations were made for 2-iodopropane and the three conformers of 2-iodobutane. A forty-seven parameter modified valence force field was used that fit eighty-four frequencies of those four molecules in the 250–1500 cm−1 region with an average error of 4.8 cm−1, or 0.6%. Infrared spectra were obtained for 2-iodopentane and 3-iodopentane, and zero-order normal coordinate calculations were made for three conformers of 2-iodopentane and for five conformers of 3-iodopentane. The SHH, SHH′, and SCH conformers of 2-iodopentane are present, along with one or two unidentified ones, and 3-iodopentane exists as a mixture of the SHH, SHH′, SCH, and SCH′ conformers. The force constants that were determined for the four conformers of 2-iodopropane and 2-iodobutane were transferred to the two secondary iodo-pentanes with good success. The average difference between observed and calculated wave-numbers for 164 frequencies of seven conformations of these two compounds was 5.8 cm−1.
