Abstract: | The infrared spectra of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (CF3SO2OCH2CF3) were obtained in the gaseous, liquid and solid states as well as the Raman spectrum of the liquid. Quantum chemistry calculations using the density functional theory were used to predict the most stable geometry and conformation of the studied molecule. Subsequently, the harmonic vibrational frequencies and force field were calculated. An assignment of the observed spectral features made after comparison with the related molecules and with the predicted frequencies was used as the basis of a scaling of the original force field in order to reproduce as well as possible the experimental frequencies. With this purpose a set of scale factors was calculated by a least square procedure, leading to a final root mean square deviation (RMSD) of 9.7 cm(-1). |
