  • Title: Infrared spectrum of the I- -D2 anion complex.
    Author: Wild DA, Bieske EJ.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2004 Dec 22; 121(24):12276-81. PubMed ID: 15606245.
    Abstract:
    The infrared spectrum of the I(-)-D(2) anion complex is measured in the D(2) stretch region by monitoring production of I(-) photofragments. The rotationally resolved spectrum consists of two overlapping Sigma-Sigma subbands, redshifted by approximately 58 cm(-1) from the free D(2) fundamental vibrational band. These subbands are associated with absorptions by I(-)-D(2) complexes containing ortho and para forms of D(2). The measured rotational constants are consistent with a 3.79 A separation between I(-) and the D(2) center of mass, contracting by 0.08 A when the D(2) subunit is vibrationally excited. Spectroscopic data are used to generate effective radial potential energy curves describing the interaction of ortho and para D(2) with I(-) from which the dissociation energies of I(-)-D(2)(ortho) and I(-)-D(2)(para) are estimated as D(0)=236 and 297 cm(-1), respectively.
