High-Resolution Analysis of the nu6, nu7, nu8, and nu9 Bands of H15N16O3 Measured by Fourier Transform Spectroscopy.
The analysis of the nu6, nu7, nu8, and nu9 bands of H15N16O3 located at 646.9641, 578.4719, 743.6166, and 458.2917 cm-1, respectively, has been carried out in the 400-800 cm-1 region using high-resolution Fourier transform spectra recorded at Ottawa. Using the ground state energy levels calculated from the v = 0 rotational constants of H15N16O3 [A. P. Cox, M. C. Ellis, C. J. Attfield, and A. C. Ferris, J. Mol. Struct. 320, 91-106 (1994)], it was possible to assign the A-type nu6 and nu7 bands and the C-type nu8 and nu9 bands of H15N16O3 up to high J and Ka rotational quantum numbers. The v6 = 1, v7 = 1, v8 = 1, and v9 = 1 experimental energy levels were then introduced in a least-squares fit calculation and precise upper state Hamiltonian constants (band centers and rotational constants) were determined allowing one to reproduce the infrared data to within the experimental uncertainty.
