Abstract

The Raman spectra of copper phthalocyanin CuPc are analyzed. The frequencies and forms of the normal in-plane vibrations which are active in the Raman spectrum are calculated. The assignment according to symmetry types is based on the polarization measurements for a β-CuPc single crystal. For phthalocyanin with all 14N atoms substituted by 15N, agreement between the calculated and experimental isotope shifts of vibration frequencies was estimated, and this estimate served as a key criterion of reliability of the calculation.
