A Raman spectroscopic study of dimanganese and dirhenium decacarbonyls

D. M. Adams, M. A. Hooper and A. Squire


New Raman data for solutions, powders, and oriented single crystals are reported which allow a consistent assignment of the vibrational spectra of the title compounds. The four Raman-active (CO) modes for Mn2(CO)10 are at 2116(a1), 2024(e2), 1997(a1), and 1981(e3) cm–1. Low-frequency spectra of considerably improved quality are also presented. All of the a1 bands have been located for Re2(CO)10 and all but one for Mn2(CO)10 for solutions.
