RAMAN SPECTRA of 1,2-DICLOROETHANE AND 2-CHLOROETHANOL

Abstract

Raman spectra of 1,2-dichloroethane and 2-chloroethanol have been recorded using both the 4358 A and the 2537 A excitations In the spectra obtained with the later excitation, many new Ruman lines are found for the first time. Assignments of these lines are discussed. When the exciting wavelength is changed from 4358 A to 2537 A, the rflative intensities and depolarization ratios of serne of the Raman lines of the two substances are seen to change also. These changes are explained on the basis of the resainance Raman effect.
