Urey—Bradley Force Constants of Methanol

Abstract

Urey—Bradley force constants of methanol have been calculated by a least‐squares technique using vibrational‐frequency data from CH₃OH, CH₃OD, CD₃OH, and CD₃OD. The results show that the vibrational assignment recently proposed by Margottin—Marclou is consistent with the Urey—Bradley field, whereas that of Falk and Whalley is not.
