Click on the spectrum to see the molecular motion most likely to be responsible for the Raman signal.

The assignments were made on the basis of relatively low-level calculations carried out using the Gaussian 94 program suite. (Restricted Hartree-Fock calculations with 3-21G* basis.) Assignments have been based on matching overall patterns of calculated and experimental spectra. The unassigned peaks in the experimental spectrum are probably due to combination bands.
