Vibrational Assignment and Thermodynamic Properties of Naphthalene

Abstract
A complete vibrational assignment of naphthalene and naphthalene‐d8 is presented. This assignment is in substantial agreement with the experimental thermodynamic properties, the product rule and the spectroscopic data. The assigned frequencies are used to calculate the thermodynamic properties of naphthalene, S0, Cp0, (H0E00)/T, and — (F0E00)/T from 273.16° to 1500°K.
