Article Synopsis
  • Mid-infrared spectra were measured for hydrogen-bonded complexes of CDCl with different solvents (acetone, cyclohexanone, diethyl ether, and tetrahydrofuran) at room temperature and in a cold argon matrix.
  • Notable changes in spectral shift (Δν) were observed, with acetone and cyclohexanone showing a switch from blue shift in vapor to red shift in the matrix, while the ethers had larger red shifts and enhanced transition intensity.
  • The differences in spectral behavior were explained by charge transfer interactions at H-bonding sites and changes in H-bond distance, with some complexes showing various substructures in

Mid-infrared spectra of difluoroacetic acid (DFAA) have been measured by isolating the molecule in argon and nitrogen matrices at 8 K and also in the vapor phase at room temperature. In argon matrix, the O-H stretching fundamental (ν) of -COOH group appears as a doublet with band maxima at 3554 and 3558 cm, and a similar doublet for C═O stretching fundamental appears at 1800 and 1810 cm. In the vapor phase, the ν transition is featured with multiple peaks, and the observed band shape has been deconvoluted as superposition of two transitions both having A-type rotational band contours.
