| Abstract: | The Infrared spectrum of solid chlorotrifluoromethane (CF3Cl) has been studied and compared with that of matrix-isolated CF3Cl. Crystal field splitting patterns of the strongest modes ν1 and ν4 suggest the crystal structure to be orthorhombic with a C2v factor group and two molecules per unit cell located on Cs sites. |
