Hydrogen bonding effects on the wavenumbers and absorption intensities of the OH fundamental and the first, second, and third overtones of phenol and 2,6-dihalogenated phenols studied by visibleear-infrared/infrared spectroscopy

摘要

Visible, near-infrared (NIR) and IR spectra in the 15600-2500 cm ~(-1) region were measured for phenol and 2,6-difluorophenol, 2,6-dichlorophenol, and 2,6-dibromophenol in n-hexane, CCl_4, CHCl_3 and CH_2Cl_2 to study hydrogen bonding effects and solvent dependences of wavenumbers and absorption intensities of the fundamental and the first, second, and third overtones of OH stretching vibrations. A band shift of the OH stretching vibrations from a gas state to a solution state (solvent shift) was plotted versus vibrational quantum number (v = 0, 1, 2 and 3), and it was found that there is a linear relation between the solvent shift and the vibrational quantum number. The slope of solvent shift decreases in the order of phenol, 2,6-difluorophenol and 2,6-dichlorophenol. For all of the solute molecules, the slope becomes larger with the increase in the dielectric constant of the solvents. The relative intensities of the OH stretching vibrations of phenol in CCl_4, CHCl_3, and CH_2Cl_2 against the intensity of the corresponding OH vibration in n-hexane increase in the fundamental and the second overtone but decrease in the first and third overtones; the relative intensities show so-called "parity". The parity is more prominent for phenol that has an intermolecular hydrogen bonding than for 2,6-dihalogenated phenols that have an intramolecular hydrogen bond. These observations suggest that the intermolecular hydrogen bond between the OH group and the Cl atom plays a key role for the parity and that the intermolecular interaction between the solutes and the solvents (solvent effects) does not have a significant role in the parity.
