Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences - Section A Aims and scope Submit manuscript

4. Summary

The effect of various solvents on the intensity of C≡N vibration of benzo and acetonitriles has been studied. It has been observed that the aliphatic and aromatic non-polar solvents have no effect on the aromatic and aliphatic nitriles respectively. In all other cases, a marked variation in intensity has been noticed. The intensity of C≡N vibration in Raman effect shows a diminution when the solvent is changed from carbon tetrachloride to chloroform while it shows a considerable increase in infra-red.
