Resonance Raman spectrum of the tetrabromoferrate(III) ion

Abstract

A resonance Raman spectrum has been obtained for the complex [(C2H5)4N][FeBr4] in the solid state. At least two progressions in the ν1(a1) fundamental have been observed, viz.1(to n= 7) and ν3+1(to n= 5) and/or ν4+1(to n= 6). The spectroscopic constants ω1and x11 have been determined to be 202.0 and –0.38 cm–1 respectively from an analysis of the 1 progression. Excitation profiles have been measured for ν1 and ν3(Stokes and anti-Stokes) and for 2ν1(Stokes); these profiles demonstrate the different resonance conditions for Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman bands. A more detailed excitation profile has been measured for the ν1(Stokes) fundamental in the region of one of the ligand field transitions. This profile has a minimum at approximately ν00 and a maximum shifted by 250 ± 50 cm–1 towards lower wavenumbers, an observation which is attributed to interference effects. The ν1 fundamental has been found to exhibit unusual (so called “anomalous”) polarisation at resonance.
