Abstract

Infrared and enhanced Raman spectra were recorded of bis(2,3-butanonedioximato-N,N′) nickel (II) and palladium (NiDMG, PdDMG) as well as the i.r. spectra of bis(ethanedialdioximato-N,N′) nickel (II) (NiHG), bis(2,3-pentanonedioximato-N,N′) nickel (II) (NiEMG), and of bis(2,3-butanonedioximato-N,N′) copper (II) (CuDMG). The mutual exclusion of i.r. and Raman active modes of NiDMG and PdDMG prove the existence of an inversion centre whereas the coupling of the in-plane OH deformation with two skeletal modes of CN stretching character indicates that the molecular symmetry is likely to be C 2 h only. The B u OHO stretching mode has been identified in the nickel complexes with a strong, broad band near 900 cm −1. The resonance Raman enhancement is observed mainly with skeletal vibrations of CN character and, less, with those having NO character. The effects of high pressure upon i.r. spectra were observed. The possible symmetry of the hydrogen bond is discussed.
