AB Initio Calculations of Vibrational Frequencies and Infrared Intensities for the Hydrogen-Bonded Complex HCN---HF

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 212))

Abstract

Potential and dipole moment surfaces for the stretching motions of the hydrogen bonded complex HCN HF were computed by SCF and CEPA (Coupled Electron Pair Approximation). The calculated anharmonic stretching vibrational frequencies and the intramolecular frequency shifts are in good agreement with recent experimental results of Bevan and coworkers. Vibrational anharmonicity is shown to be of great importance for the HF stretching vibration. The intensity of this vibration is enhanced by a factor of 13 with respect to free HF. The theoretical equilibrium dissociation energy is in close agreement with the experimental value of Legon and Millen.
