Abstract: | The in-plane and out-of-plane vibrational modes in the 3A″ and 1A′ electronic states of propynal were subjected to a normal coordinate treatment in the approximation of the Urey-Bradley force field. From the relative oscillator strengths of the transitions connecting the vibrationless 1A′ state and the vibronic levels of the 3A″ state, the differences in equilibrium configuration were evaluated by an approximate Franck-Condon analysis based on the ground state normal coordinates. As this treatment gave 512 possible geometrical structures for the upper state, it was necessary to resort to a comparison of the observed and calculated moments of inertia along with chemical intuition to isolate the structure. A test of the correctness of the calculated structural change and the vibrational assignment was made by evaluating the intensities of the in-plane and out-of-plane fundamental, sequence, and cross sequence transitions by the exact Franck-Condon method. |
