Abstract
The presence of weak specific solvent-solute interactions is proved by studying the splitting of the nu3(F1u) band of M(CO)6 (M = Mo, Cr) in some isotropic electron donor solvents, A similar spectral effect is observed in the smectic, nematic and isotropic phases of the liquid cr ystal ZLI 1167 (Merck) and is explained by similar interactions. The c omplex (bisignate) shape of the IR-LD spectra of M(CO)6 in the anisotr opic solvent is considered to be a manifestation of the same solvent e ffect.
