Normal modes of vibration :

Small rotational constant: B0 ≈ 0.091 cm–1

v6 = 1 is the lowest vibrational level and thus generates hot bands.

But the ν6 fundamental band is, in first approximation, inactive.

Perturbation-induced dipole moment• Coriolis interaction between ν6 and ν4 does not give convincing results

• There must be a more complicated interaction pattern• Anyway, contact transformation induces new terms in the dipole moment

• We can explain the ν6 structure with a degree one rotational dipole

moment operator (Herman-Wallis type), then considering the band as

isolated:

This term leads to a complex branch structure, which we do observe!

Toward hot band elucidation

• The ν3+ν6 level is not accessible (too

weak Raman band)

• ν3+ν6–ν4 difference band could be

observed (and ν4 is well known), but is

very weak in a difficult spectral region

• ν3+ν2–ν2 and ν3+ν1–ν1 already done!
