Infra-red cryogenic studies. Part 3.—Hydrogen halides in doped argon matrices
Abstract
Infra-red spectra are reported of binary mixtures of HCl, HBr or HI (HX) with O2, N2, CO2, CO or C2H4(D) in argon matrices at 20 K. With the exception of O2, three induced absorption bands are observed which are interpreted as arising from HX—D, HX—D—HX and (HX)2—D interactions.
