A Study Of The Vibrational Spectra Of Some Monosubstituted Pyridines, Hussein Ibrahim Abdel-Shafy

Theses

Infrared spectra in the range (4000-250 cm^-1) and Raman spectra in the range (4000-150 cm^-1) of pyridine, 2-, 3- and 4-chloro-, bromo-, and methylpyridines, 2-fluoro-, 2-amino and 4-ethylpyridines have been measured. The spectra, vibration and assignments of the observed frequencies of 2-amino-, and 4-ethylpyridines are presented for the first time. The infrared data for 2-fluoropyridine is combined with the previously reported Raman data of Stephenson and Voelz to allow complete vibrational assignments for this compound for the first time. Frequency assignments for the other molecules are re-examined and where necessary changes and/or additions in frequency assignments …
