Effect of the resonance of molecular vibrations on the ir spectra of hydrogen bonds

The effects are considered of the vibrations occurring with the group of atoms peripheral towards the hydrogen bond on the IR spectrum of the model hydrogen bond. It. is shown that the resonance of the v_OHv_CH stretching vibrations in a hydrogen bonded molecule result in the division of the v_OH band into two other bands having different polarizations. The resonance interaction leads to redistribution of the intensity and perturbs the regular Franck—Condon type envelope of the spectrum.
