title: Vibrational spectra of the adduct of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene with dichloromaleic acid (DMAN x DCM).
abstract: The infra-red (IR), Raman (R) and inelastic incoherent neutron scattering (IINS) spectra, particularly in low frequency region, of the title ionic adduct were studied. It is shown that all low frequency vibrations (below 200 cm(-1)) of (CH3)2N groups of protonated 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene (DMAN)--clearly observed in IINS spectra--are sensitive to the environment, i.e. to the type of counterion forming short contacts with C-H bonds of methyl groups. The internal frequencies were also calculated by ab initio method. The results are consistent with numerous observations of the counteranion effect on the geometry of the protonated DMAN. The conclusions are compared with structural and NMR studies reported recently for the 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene with dichloromaleic acid (DMAN x DCM) adduct. The single crystal R polarized spectra taken over the frequency range 20-3200 cm(-1) were analyzed in detail. We have shown that a substantial difference in the IR spectrum of the dichloromaleic acid (DCM) anion in the DMAN adduct and in the potassium salt results from different geometries of OHO hydrogen bonds. In the case of potassium salt the chains of longer intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed described by means of a double minimum potential.
