Experimental determination of the {nu}{sub 1} fundamental vibrational transition moment for HNC.

Journal Article · · Chem. Phys. Lett.
Hydrogen isocyanide, HNC, was generated by the reaction of translationally energetic H atoms with ClCN, and the resulting products, HCl, HCN and HNC, followed by time-resolved infrared absorption spectroscopy. The subsequent reaction of the Cl and CN species with the H atom precursor, CH{sub 3}SH, resulted in a definite stoichiometric relationship between the stable products and HNC. This stoichiometric relationship was used to relate the HNC absorption to those for HCN and HCl. The {nu}{sub 1} fundamental vibrational transition moment was determined to be 0.141{+-}0.007 Debye.
