Out-of-phase modes

Figure 27. Dipolar coupling of asymmetric stretching in side-by-side C02 dimer. For this configuration, unfavorable electrostatic interaction shifts the intense in-phase mode of a degenerate pair (a) to higher frequency. At the same time, the weak out-of-phase mode (b) shifts to lower frequency. From Ref. 87 with permission from Elsevier Science Publishers.

The out-of-phase mode would be infrared inactive because there would be no net change of dipole moment perpendicular to the surface. When a... 

Because of the structural arrangement, the carboxylic acid dimer is unusual. The O—H bonds of the two acid units of the dimer must vibrate in unison, in-phase or out-of-phase. If the cyclic dimers are planar or close to planar, only the out-of-phase mode of v, will be IR-active. This has particular significance in reference to the anharmonicity. By synunetry the potential function for the out-of-phase vibration cannot involve odd powers of the displacements. The absence of odd power... 

Here, S is the total spin of the cluster, J is the parameter of the HDVV exchange interaction, t is the parameter of double exchange, Sa and 5 are the spins of the cluster ions, and is the minimal of these spins. For the sake of definiteness the orbitals are assumed to be spherical, and the symmetry labels of D4h point group are employed. The presence of these levels in the electronic spectrum of MV dimers and their mixing by the out-of-phase mode q (q = (Qa - Qb)lV2 Qa and Qb are the full symmetric vibrational modes of the cluster fragments (Fig. 29a))...

In the most simple case where only a pair of adsorbed CO s are considered, dipole-dipole interactions would lead to coupling and produce an in-phase mode 0 0, and an out-of-phase mode, 0 0. The...

This amplitude ratio is real for both unstable modes, and so the interfaces are either exactly in or out of phase. Mode I grows in phase where unstable but oscillates out of phase where stable, while mode II grows out of phase where unstable and in phase where stable. In phase interfacial growth tends to stretch the annular film and so is termed a stretching mode, while out of phase growth tends to squeeze the film and so is called a squeezing mode. Such definitions were introduced by the studies of Taylor [74] and Felderhof [25]. 

An infrared (IR) spectrum of MA is shown in Fig. 1-5. The most characteristic anhydride bands appear at -- 1780 and 1850 cm The exact position of these bands is slightly dependent on the nature of the sample as well as the solvent used. This doublet is usually ascribed to mechanical coupling of carbonyl vibrations. Thus, the high-frequency band is produced by the symmetric (in-phase) stretching mode whereas the low-frequency band is produced by the asymmetric (out-of-phase) mode. The 1780-cm band is very strong and can be conveniently used to estimate the amount of MA in a mixture by quantitative IR ( 1%). The method is quite useful when solutions are examined by IR. In solutions such as chloroform, benzene, etc., MA has been studied in detail and assignments have been made. In the presence of other anhydrides,particularly polyesters,this could be a valuable method. Of course, all standard methods and limitations of quantitative IR determination apply. Infrared spectra of gaseous MA and Raman spectra are also reported. 

Due to the center of inversion, the rule of mutual exclusion must apply to the vibration of the complexes. However, since the vibrations of the ring ligands should have only weak coupling between in-phase and out-of-phase modes, for these vibrations frequency splittings might be expected. These can be rather small, so that pseudo-coincidences should occur. Thus experimental criteria for distinguishing between and D3J are (a) the number of observed normal vibrations, (b) the number of pseudo-coincidences, and (c) the number of n.v. appearing only in the Raman spectrum. 

In this case the higher frequency (more intense) mode corresponds to the in-phase vibration and the out-of-phase vibration to the lower (less intense) mode. The reason for the reversal of the usual mechanics for these coupled oscillators has been suggested by Colthup. It is proposed that an additional interaction constant is required because of the heavy contributions of the dipolar resonance forms II and III. These forms enhance the single-bond character in the out-of-phase mode and thereby drop that mode below the in-phase stretch, which depends more heavily on contributions from form I and has more double-bond character.
