Abstract
A normal mode analysis was carried out for a monoclinic anhydrous zinc acetate crystal in which the acetate groups had bridging bidentate co ordination forms, and spectral assignments were made. Based on the ass ignments, a relation between the coordination structure of the carboxy late groups around the zinc atom and the vibrational frequencies of th e carboxylate rocking mode was found. This relation was applied to zin c stearate to determine its coordination form, and we found that zinc stearate had a bridging bidentate form. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
