Abstract
The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum of chloroacetyl chloride trapped in a cryogenic xenon matrix has been recorded. The assignment of site and isotopically split band components has been supported by a normal coordinate analysis carried out with an ab initio force field calculated using the 3-21G basis set for the trans conformer. Little or no rotamerization is experienced after deposition or on ultraviolet (UV) irradiation.
