Abstract
We report the first gas phase observation of a bending vibration in an open shell molecule by far-infrared laser magnetic resonance. The spe ctrum is due to FeD2; its observation shows that rovibrational transit ions can be detected with such a spectrometer. The molecule was produc ed in the reaction between deuterium atoms and iron pentacarbonyl. FeD 2 has a linear (5) Delta ground state and shows the effects of Renner- Teller coupling in the excited vibrational (010) level. (C) 1997 Ameri can Institute of Physics.
