Abstract

Vibrational assignments of the complexes [RhClC 7H 8] 2, PtCl 2C 7H 8, and PdCl 2C 7H 8 have been undertaken. A reinvestigation of the norbornadiene spectrum was necessary and a new set of assignments is given. The shift in energy of bands I and II and the out-of-plane olefinic CH wagging modes, as well as the relative energies of the bands associated with the metal—olefin motions are consistent with the total metal—norbornadiene interaction following the order Rh>Pt>Pd and the extent of the π component being ordered as Rh⋍Pt>Pd.
