title: Comparison of linear and 2D IR spectra in the presence of fast exchange.
abstract: The few picosecond time scale H-bond making and breaking in the system acetonitrile-methanol dominates the mechanism of vibrational coherence transfer that is evident in the shapes of both the linear and nonlinear IR spectra of the CN group.
