C. Coulombeau et H. Jobic, CONTRIBUTION TO THE VIBRATIONAL NORMAL-MODES ANALYSIS OF D(8)-THF BY NEUTRON INELASTIC-SCATTERING, Journal of molecular structure. Theochem, 330, 1995, pp. 127-130
The Neutron Inelastic Scattering (NIS) spectrum of deuterated tetrahyd
rofuran d(g)-THF has been recorded between 20 and 2000 cm(-1). The low
est frequency internal vibration is located at 120 +/- 5 cm(-1), in go
od agreement with the solid state Raman spectrum. The NIS spectrum has
been simulated using the results of a Quantum Mechanical calculation
(E. Gallinella, B. Cadioli, J.P. Flament and G. Berthier, J. Mol. Stru
ct (Theochem), in press) which also agrees with the experimental frequ
encies using a scale factor of 0.95.
