M. Wierzejewska, FTIR matrix isolation studies of complexes of dimethylsulfide, dimethyldisulfide and hydrogen sulfide with nitric acid, VIB SPECTR, 23(2), 2000, pp. 253-262
Complexes formed by dimethylsulfide (DMS), dimethyldisulfide (DMDS) and hyd
rogen sulfide (H2S) with nitric acid have been observed and characterised i
n argon and nitrogen matrices. The spectra show that in all studied systems
the HNO3 molecule is hydrogen bonded to sulfur atom of the base molecule.
The strength of interaction as evidenced by the shifts in the v(1) OH modes
of nitric acid decreases in the following order: DMS-HNO3, DMDS-HNO3, H2S-
HNO3. The possible structure of the studied complexes is discussed. (C) 200
