Abstract The molecular vibrations of (TeCl4)4 and (SeCl4)4 are studied on the basis of a cubane-like Td model. Symmetry coordinates are produced by using the theory developed for tetrahedral complexes with trigonal ligands. Approximate vibrational frequencies are calculated from very simple four-parameter force fields and used as an aid in tentative assignments of observed frequencies from literature. Next the force fields are refined by adjustments to the observed frequencies assigned as fundamentals. Potential energy distribution terms and mean amplitudes of vibration are calculated. Finally the monomeric form of TeCl4 is analysed, mainly in order to show the frequency shifts on passing from the monomer to tetramer.
