The high stability of fluoride complexes maintains the configuration and vibration parameters of different compounds in various media. This special feature enables clear distinguishing of different complex ion types using vibration spectroscopy in solid, liquid and molten media.

The main problems encountered in the investigation of tantalum- and niobium-containing fluoride and oxyfluoride complexes are related to the tendency of the compounds to undergo hydrolysis, particularly at elevated/high temperatures. In addition, the interpretations of the observed effects are often nontrivial and unclear due to the relatively complicated inter-particular interactions and changes that occur under thermal treatment. From this point of view, vibration spectroscopy methods are of high importance due to the dependence of solid phase spectra on the temperature, which, above all, stems from the nature of such inter-ionic interactions [369]. 

For on-bead analysis vibrational spectroscopy (IR-spectroscopy) can be employed attenuated total reflection is a method allowing fast and nondestructive on-bead analysis of small samples (single bead analysis) without significant sample preparation. Solid phase NMR is the method of choice if complex structural analysis is intended on the support. Spatially resolved analysis on the resin is possible with microscopic techniques.

Most informative in this context is vibrational spectroscopy since the number of signals observed depends on the molecular size as well as on the symmetry of the molecule and, if it is part of a condensed phase, of its environment. In particular, Raman spectroscopy has contributed much to the elucidation of the various allotropes of elemental sulfur and to the analysis of complex mixtures such as hquid and gaseous sulfur. 

Vibrational spectroscopy has generally been applied to Si—M complexes in order to assign Si—M, M—Cl, M—P, or M—CO stretching mode(s). 

The use of computer simulations to study internal motions and thermodynamic properties is receiving increased attention. One important use of the method is to provide a more fundamental understanding of the molecular information contained in various kinds of experiments on these complex systems. In the first part of this paper we review recent work in our laboratory concerned with the use of computer simulations for the interpretation of experimental probes of molecular structure and dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids. The interplay between computer simulations and three experimental techniques is emphasized (1) nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation spectroscopy, (2) refinement of macro-molecular x-ray structures, and (3) vibrational spectroscopy. The treatment of solvent effects in biopolymer simulations is a difficult problem. It is not possible to study systematically the effect of solvent conditions, e.g. added salt concentration, on biopolymer properties by means of simulations alone. In the last part of the paper we review a more analytical approach we have developed to study polyelectrolyte properties of solvated biopolymers. The results are compared with computer simulations.
