title: Vapor phase near infrared spectroscopy of the hydrogen bonded methanol-trimethylamine complex.
abstract: The spectroscopy of the vapor phase hydrogen bonded complex formed between methanol and trimethylamine has been studied in the near-infrared region. A combination band involving one quantum of OH stretch and one quantum of COH bend has been observed for the complex. The much less intense first OH-stretching overtone transition has been tentatively assigned. This assignment is supported by anharmonic oscillator local mode calculations.
