The infrared (20 to 3100 cm−1) and Raman (10 to 3100 cm−1) spectra of gaseous (CH3)3SiOCH3 and (CH3)3SiOCD3 have been recorded. The Raman spectra of both liquids and the infrared and Raman spectra of the “light” compound in the solid state have also been recorded. A vibrational assignment based upon depolarization ratios, frequency shifts with isotopic substitution, and group frequencies is proposed. The Si—O torsional mode was observed at 67 cm−1 which gives a barrier to internal rotation of 1.02 kcal/mol. Strong mixing of the Si—O—C bending mode with the C—Si—C bends is proposed. The CH3—O torsion was not observed.

The Raman spectra (0 to 3300 cm−1) of (CH3)3Si(CHCH2) and (CD3)3Si(CHCH2) in the gaseous, liquid and solid states have been recorded. The infrared spectra (20 to 3300 cm−1) of the same two compounds in the gaseous and solid states have also been recorded. A vibrational assignment based upon depolarization ratios, frequency shifts with isotopic substitution, infrared band contours, and group frequencies is proposed. The SiC3 torsion was observed at 55 and 50 cm−1 for the “light” and “heavy” molecules, respectively, and the barriers to internal rotation were calculated to be 0.73 kcal/mol and 0.64 kcal/mol for the light and heavy compounds, respectively. These results are compared to the corresponding data for similar molecules.

The infrared spectrum of gaseous CF3NO has been studied in the region 4000–35 cm−1. The infrared spectrum of the condensed phase has also been recorded and a complete vibrational assignment is proposed. Attempts to record the Raman spectrum have been hampered by photolysis. A frequency of 50 cm−1 for the CF3 torsional mode has been estimated from combination and hot bands. This corresponds to a barrier to internal rotation of approximately 425 cal/mol (150 cm−1). A normal coordinate analysis has been carried out and potential energy distributions, and valence and symmetry force constants are reported.
