Summary
In this paper the necessary experimental steps are described to obtain high quality IR-spectra from single crystal surfaces (approx. 1.5×2 mm) of N,N-dithiocarbamates with plane polarized radiation. The low spectral contrast to be obtained with such samples (A<0,05) requires the combination of a standard ATR-unit with a rapid-scanning Fourier transform IR-spectrometer. Significant band shifts>1 cm−1 and variable ratios of band intensities for different polarization could be observed and used to perform reliable band assignments.
Zusammenfassung
Die experimentellen Bedingungen zur Aufnahme hochqualifizierter IR- Spektren von Dithiocarbamat-Einkristalloberflächen (ca. 1,5-2 mm) mit Hilfe von polarisierter Strahlung werden präsentiert. Der Einsatz eines Fourier-Transformationspektrometers mit eingebauter ATR-Einheit ist wegen der geringen zu beobachtenden Bandenextinktion (E<0,05) notwendig. Damit konnten erstmals in diesem Bereich signifikante Bandenverschiebungen>1 cm−1 und variable Bandenintensitäten eindeutig festgestellt und zuverlässige Bandenzuordnungen vorgenommen werden.
