Abstract: | The geometrical parameters and associated force constants for the molecules XSSX (X = H, halogen, CH3, CF3) were studied using DFT quantum chemistry calculations. The study showed rather monotonic trends in these properties related to the SS bonds, although an anomalous behavior is noted when the substituent is CF3. The calculated vibrational frequencies allowed a confirmation of published band assignments, but corrections were necessary for S2F2 and S2H2. |
