The IR spectra of CO2, dimethylamine (DMA), (DMA)(2) dimers, DMA ... CO2 (2
:1) complex, dimethylcarbamic acid (DMCA), DMCA ... DMA (1 : 1) complex, DM
CA(-), and DMA(H)(+) were calculated at the B3PW91/6-31G** level. Potential
energy distribution (PED) was calculated for predicted spectra to form bas
is for elucidation of experimental IR data. The stabilisation energy of the
studied complexes was corrected by counterpoise method. (C) 1999 Elsevier
