Infra-red absorption bands

The infra-red absorption bands of molecular nitric acid do not change as the medium is varied beween 100% and 70% of acid on further dilution the nitrate ion becomes the dominant species. ... 

A very interesting calculation has been carried out by N. Bjerrum (Zeitschr. Elektrocliem., 1911 Nernst Festschrift, 1912) in which the rotational energy is connected with the frequencies of the infra-red absorption bands of a gas. The chemical constants of gases have also recently been calculated from kinetic principles by Sackur (Nernst Festschrift, 405, 1912 Ann. Phijs., 40, 67, 84, 1918). 

Infra-red absorption bands have been reported for a wide range of dioxygen complexes (77). In general, the only band observed for type 11(G) complexes is in the range 800—900 cm , which has been assigned to the 0-0 stretch (164). This assignment has been confirmed for... 

Lower temperature applications commonly occur in the food industry (e.g. the monitoring of frozen foods). This is particularly important over a frequency range of 2 x 1013 s l to 4 x 1013 s 1 within which most organic materials emit infra-red radiation of significant power. An additional advantage is that the infra-red absorption bands for C02 and water vapour (the presence of which can cause errors because they attenuate the radiation emitted from the source material) are outside this range of wavelengths. 

The absorption spectra of pink octahedral Co(H20)g+ and of deep blue tetrahedral Co(Cl)4- show bands in the visible region at 18 500 cm 1 (e= 10) and 15 000 cm-1 (e = 600), respectively. Both these compounds also show infra-red absorption bands at 8350 cm 1 and 6300 cm 1. Suggest an explanation for these observations. [Hint See Griffith (1964) and Harris and Bertolucci (1978).]... 

Although the crystalline structures of many polymers have been determined, it is unusual for these to include any estimate of the probable error in the various parameters. But unless these are known, deductions which are sometimes made from the values of the parameters (e.g. the assignment of infra-red absorption band frequencies) can be misleading.

The results established in the preceding paragraph may be verified by comparing the thermodynamic properties and the spectroscopic properties of associated solutions. Let us consider, for example, a solution of ethanol in carbon tetrachloride. The valency vibration of the OH group gives rise to two distinct infra-red absorption bands depending upon whether the OH group is in a monomer or in an associated complex. The fraction of molecules of alcohol which remain in the monomeric state can therefore be determined from measurements... 

The rates of loss do not correlate with the rates of increase in the hydroxyl index for these systems or with the photoyellowing and uv phenomena. This indicates that the mechanism of oxidation of the amine functionality is complex. An additional feature of interest is the profile of this band loss as related to terminal amine structure. In the simple alkyl substituted systems namely diethyl, dimethyl and dibutyl there is an initial rapid loss followed by a slowing down of the rate of decrease on prolonged irradiation. However, with the oxygen containing systems namely morpholine, N-ethyl ethanolamine and N-methyl ethanolamine the rate of decrease is linear with irradiation time. Evidently, there must be two different mechanisms in operation here. The loss of these infra-red absorption bands may be due to a process of dealkylation via oxidation (see reactions later). The band situated at 2978 cm"l exhibited similar behaviour although the extent of the loss was less than that observed with the previous band and the order of rate loss was marginally different. 

As mentioned above (Section 4.2), infra-red absorption bands of amor-... 

The relaxation of stress-induced dichroism of the 9000nm O infra-red absorption band was investigated in samples of Czochralski material which had been annealed in H plasma at 225 to 350C. It was found that the in-diffusion of H enhanced the rate of O diffusion, so that dichroism disappeared gradually from the external surfaces. Other measurements indicated that O diffusion jumps were catalyzed by collisions with diffusing H atoms. It was deduced that the H diffusivity was described by ... 

The diffusivity was measured at 270 to 400C by studying the recovery kinetics of stress-induced dichroism in an O infra-red absorption band. It was found that the results, together with previous data, could be described by ...

The swelling, crazing, and cracking behavior of PMMA, PVC, and PSU in contact with some 70 different liquids was analyzed by Vincent and Raha [123]. They considered not only the solubility parameter 65 but also the value of the hydrogen bonding parameter Hqd based on the displacement of the OD infra-red absorption band in CH3OD in presence of the particular liquid and benzene. Better (but still no unique), correlation between the mode of failure and 63 and Hqd was obtained.
