The FT-IR Spectrum of HCNO: The ν1, ν2, 2ν3, and ν2 + ν3 Band Systems

The infrared spectrum of HC¹⁵NO an isotopically substituted species of fulminic acid, has been measured in the range 1900-3600 cm⁻¹ at a resolution of 0.003 cm⁻¹ with a Bruker IFS 120 HR interferometer. More than 100 subbands have been assigned. Power series coefficients for these transitions are given. A Coriolis resonance between the levels 01002 (l = 0e) and 01010 (l = 1e) allows normally "forbidden" transitions to occur, some of which were observed and assigned. We correlate transition intensities and energies of the resonance system. Variations in the manifold of nν₅ states with excitation of other modes are compared.
