Raman spectra of methanol suspended in argon matrices are reported for
the first time. A comparison of calculated values and results for the
vapor and liquid phases obtained with the same instrument is also inc
luded. Observations in the low and high frequency regions are not enti
rely in agreement with complementary IR studies, but this can be expla
ined by the prevalaence of dimeric forms.
