Raman ( 3 S 2 0 cm-') and IR (4000-80 cm-') spectra of benzophenone and a series of its puru-dkubstituted derivatives (substitoents F, C1, Br and CH,) as melts and in solution were recorded. A complete empirical a s s i p ment of tbe measured spectra was made and the influence of para substitution on tbe normal modes was investigated.
Raman and infrared vibrational spectra have been recorded for o-pbthalic acid as a single crystal, as a powder and in solution. The proposed assignment of the observed frequencies was made on the basis of a normal coordinate analysis and symmetry considerations of the crystal spectrum, which allowed the separation of internal vibrations of the A and B species.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
