Abstract
The rotational Raman spectrum of cyanogen gas at [Formula: see text] atm. pressure has been photographed in the second order of a 21 ft. concave grating spectrograph. The simplicity of the spectrum and the observed intensity alternation of the lines show that C2N2 is a linear symmetric molecule. An analysis of the spectrum yields for the rotational constants[Formula: see text]By assuming a value for the C≡N bond length of 1.157 Å, the length of the C—C single bond was calculated to be 1.380 Å.Keywords
