Evaluation of Force Constants from Raman Effect Data. Part 2. Molecules and Radicals of the Planar XY3 Type

Abstract

The force constants of 4 molecules and 5 radicals of the planar type XY₃ belonging to the point group D_3h have been calculated using Raman effect data by the Wilson's F—G matrix method. Applying the empirical rules of Badger and Gordy, the X—Y internuclear distances have been calculated.
