Sign ambiguity in dipole moment derivatives of Br2CO

Signs of the dipole moment derivatives, ?p_x/?S₄ and ?p_x/?S₅ where p_x is the dipole moment vector along an axis perpendicular to the CO bond in the plane of the molecule and S_j are the symmetry coordinates for the B₁ vibrations of Br₂CO have been re-evaluated from the reported ?p/?Q_i values (p being the dipole moment of the molecule and Q_i the normal coordinates) and the L matrix elements. The new set of dipole moment derivatives fits well with similar parameters for Cl₂CO and F₂CO.
