The symmetric amino-wagging band of hydrazine: Assignment and analysis

Abstract

For the first time a weak fundamental symmetric amino-wagging band, ν 6, was assigned in the high-resolution Fourier-transform infrared spectrum of hydrazine. The analysis of the Fermi-type resonance between the ν 6 and the third excited torsional state, 3 ν 7, is presented. A global fitting was carried out taking into account 3392 lines of the ν 6 band (for K′ from 0 to 10 and for all symmetry species) and 428 lines of the 3 ν 7 band (for K′ from 3 to 9 and only for the symmetry species in resonance). For all 3820 rovibrational transitions the overall standard deviation of the fit of 0.019 cm −1 was obtained. The band centers of the symmetric wagging state and the third torsional were determined at 795.137 and 860.138 cm −1, respectively. Individual fits were also carried out for K′ from 3 to 8 for all symmetry species with much improved standard deviations. The effective group-theoretical Hamiltonian for the coupling between inversion and torsion states was used.
