Abstract
Infrared spectra of gaseous digermane and of digermane‐d6 were recorded under medium resolution from 4000–250 cm—1 and the Raman displacements were obtained photoelectrically from 100–2600 cm—1 for the liquid state. The 12 fundamental frequencies for each molecule were assigned to the normal modes and digermane was shown to have the D3d ethanelike structure. The rotational structures of the eu fundamentals of Ge2H6 and the ν8 fundamental of Ge2D6 were resolved and analyzed. Results from the zeta sum rule confirmed the hindered rotator structure and four combination bands were used to estimate the barrier hindering internal rotation as 1490±200 cal/mole.Keywords
