REVIEWS
The Infrared Predissociation Spectrum of H3+.
Alan Carrington and Iain R. McNab
Acc. Chem. Res. 1989, 22, 218-222.
The account presents a very nice discussion of the
H3+ cation. The cation is made in an energetically
excited state. The IR quanta are then used to add even more energy to the
cation. All in all the cation ends up with more energy than is necessary
for dissociation. Eventually it will dissociate and the rate of that
fragmentation is used to determine the intensity of the IR absorption.
Pretty cool stuff! A scan in the region between 872 and 1094 cm-1
contained 26,500 lines (!) and the spectrum taking took some 2,500 hours
(!). How is that for complexity.
Microwave and Infrared Spectra of Free Radicals and Molecular Ions.
Eizi Hirota
Chem. Rev. 1992, 92, 141-171.
The review describes new methods for the determination of the IR
spectra of ions.
High-Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy of Weakly Bound Molecule Complexes.
Nesbitt, D.
Chem. Rev. 1988, 88, 843-870
The review describes the equilibrium cell
method and the supersonic molecular beam
method for the experimental measurement of the IR spectra of very weaklky bound molecules.
Far-Infrared Laser Spectroscopy of van der Waals Bonds: A Powerful Probe
of Intermolecular Forces.
Saykally, R. J.
Acc. Chem. Res. 1989, 22, 295-300.
The review describes the unable FIR laser
spectrometry and its application to the
experimental measurement of the IR spectra of very weaklky bound molecules such as
the argon hydrate and argon hydrogenchloride (ArHCl and ArH2O).
