Abstract

As a result of the experimental study of water Raman spectra and water–ethanol solutions, it was established that Fermi resonance and Darling–Dennison resonance make significant contribution to the formation of Raman spectra. Basing on the analysis of the spectra using optimization algorithms, the coupling constants W and the contributions of Fermi resonance to spectra in water and aqueous ethanol solutions at various temperatures were calculated. The contribution of the resonance of Darling–Dennison to the formation of the spectra of solutions was analyzed. It was established that Fermi and Darling–Dennison resonances manifested stronger in a 20% solution of ethanol in water in comparison with pure water. These resonances weakened with increasing temperature. This effect was explained from the point of view of strength of hydrogen bonds. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
