Abstract
From a combination of FT-Raman, infrared and inelastic neutron spectro scopies, all of the internal and librational modes of complexed water have been assigned unambiguously. Two of the translational modes (Fe-O stretch and Fe-O bend) have been assigned and the evidence suggests t hat the remaining mode (an Fe-O bend) is coincident with the other ben d. The spectra provide good evidence that the FE-OH2 twist is highly a nharmonic and that the hydrogen bonding has a major effect on the Fe-O dynamics. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
