The Raman spectra of some simple molecules. (Dimethyl Ether, Phosgene, n-Butane, Ethylene Diamine, Ethylene Glycol, Ethylene Dichloride, Ethylene Dibromide, Acetylene Tetrachloride, Acetylene Tetrabromide and Hexachloroethane.)

Abstract

The Raman spectra of dimethyl ether, phosgene,n-butane, ethylene diamine, ethylene glycol, ethylene dichloride, ethylene dibromide, acetyleue tetrachloride, acetylene tetrabromide and hexachloroethane have been studied afresh. The Raman frequencies of phosgene have been classified with the aid of polarisation data. Polarisation measurements have also been made in the case ofn-butane, ethylene glycol, ethylene dichloride, ethylene dibromide, and acetylene tetrabromide. A brief discussion of the spectra of the ethane derivatives in relation to the problem of "free rotation" is added.
