Abstract
The Raman and infrared spectra of 1-chloro-, 1-bromo-, and 1-iodopropanes, CH3CH2CH2X (X=Cl, Br, and I), and 1-chloro-, 1-bromo-, and 1-iodobutanes, CH3CH2CH2CH2X (X=Cl, Br, and I), were measured for the gaseous, liquid, glassy, and crystalline states. The normal vibration frequencies were calculated, a consistent set of force constants explaining the frequencies of basic halogenoalkanes being assumed. The rotational isomerism was studied on the basis of the spectral observations and the normal coordinate calculations. The enthalpy differences among the rotational isomers were examined.
