1 hemistry 362 Spring 2017 Dr. Jean M. Standard February 15, 2017 Introduction to Molecular Vibrations and Infrared Spectroscopy Vibrational Modes For a molecule with N atoms, the number of vibrational modes is 3N-5 for a linear molecule and 3N-6 for a nonlinear molecule. All diatomic molecules (N=2) have only a single vibrational mode corresponding to the vibration of the bond. A linear triatomic molecule such as 2 possesses four vibrational modes, while a nonlinear triatomic molecule such as 2 posseses only three vibrational modes. Infrared Activity: Dipole Moment The dipole moment of the molecule must change during a vibration in order for a spectroscopic transition to occur. If the dipole moment changes during a vibration, then that mode is said to be infrared active. Recall that the dipole! moment is a measure of the charge separation in a system. For a system of N point charges, the dipole moment d is defined as N!! d = q i r i, i=1 where q i is the charge of the ith particle and! r i is the position vector of the ith particle. In quantum mechanics, because the charge distribution is based on probability, and is therefore smeared out, the dipole moment is not a sum of point charges times the position vector, but rather an integral over the charge distribution times the position vector. Selection Rules for Infrared Spectroscopy armonic oscillators: Δv i = ±1 (only the fundamental transitions are allowed) Anharmonic oscillators: Δv i = ±1, ± 2, ± 3, (the fundamental transitions, as well as overtones and combinations, are allowed) In these selection rules, the quantity v i is the quantum number for the ith vibrational mode of the polyatomic molecule. Each of the vibrational modes of the molecule is treated as a harmonic (or an anharmonic) oscillator. Assuming that the amiltonian operator is approximately separable, the vibrational energy of the molecule is then a sum of energies of each of the modes, where ν 0i is the harmonic frequency of the ith mode. 3N 6(5) E v 1v 2v 3... = hν 0i( v i + 1 2), i=1 The selection rules for polyatomics state that the quantum number v i has to change by one unit during a spectroscopic transition (for the fundamental transition). owever, the other quantum numbers for all the other modes stay the same only one mode has to change. ence, depending on which quantum number v i changes, there will be 3N-6 (3N-5) distinct fundamental transitions for each polyatomic molecule. The rest of this handout describes a few simple examples of the vibrational modes of polyatomic molecules and their infrared activity.
2 EXAMPLE 1: Water Water has three vibrational modes since it is a nonlinear triatomic molecule. These vibrations are summarized in the table below. 2 Mode Frequency (cm 1 ) IR activity symmetric stretch 3660 IR active antisymmetric stretch 3760 IR active -- bend 1590 IR active A sketch of the vibrational motion that occurs for the symmetric stretching mode of water is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Symmetric stretching mode of water Bond stretching Bond contraction Water is a nonlinear molecule, so its equilibrium dipole moment is nonzero. For the symmetric stretching mode, the dipole moment increases when bond stretching occurs, and the dipole moment decreases when bond contraction occurs. Thus, the dipole moment changes during the vibration and so the symmetric stretching mode is infrared active. A sketch of the vibrational motion that occurs for the antisymmetric stretching mode of water is shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. Antisymmetric stretching mode of water Antisymmetric bond stretching Antisymmetric bond stretching When one - bond is stretched and the other is contracted, the dipole moment changes direction. It shifts from being positioned in line with the oxygen atom to the right and the to the left as the molecule vibrates. Therefore, the antisymmetric stretching mode is infrared active.
3 A sketch of the vibrational motion that occurs for the bending mode of water is shown in Figure 3. 3 Figure 3. Bending mode of water Angle bending Angle bending The molecule begins its bending motion at equilibrium with a nonzero dipole moment. When the angle bends and becomes larger, the dipole moment is reduced. When the angle bends and becomes smaller, the dipole moment is increased. This mode is infrared active because the dipole moment changes as the molecule bends. All three vibrational modes of water are infrared active; therefore, all three should be observed in the infrared spectrum of water. An example infrared spectrum for liquid water is shown in Figure 4. ne large broad peak in the spectrum at about 3500 cm 1 corresponds to the two stretching modes (their frequencies are very similar); the other smaller peak at around 1600 cm 1 corresponds to the bending mode. Figure 4. Infrared spectrum of liquid water (from webbook.nist.gov). A gas phase infrared spectrum of water is shown in Figure 5. Much more spectroscopic detail is generally observed in gas phase spectra. For example, what appears to be two peaks centered at about 1600 cm 1 in the gas phase water spectrum is actually a single band, divided into branches, corresponding to the bending mode. The extra detail observed in the gas phase spectrum is a result of rotational structure that is washed out in the liquid phase spectrum.
4 4 Figure 5. Infrared spectrum of gas phase water (from webbook.nist.gov). EXAMPLE 2: arbon Dioxide arbon dioxide has four vibrational modes since it is a linear triatomic molecule. These modes are summarized in the table below. Mode Frequency (cm 1 ) IR activity symmetric stretch 1390 not IR active antisymmetric stretch 2350 IR active degenerate bend (2 modes) 670 IR active In order to explain the IR activity of each of the modes, we have to consider the dipole moment. Because 2 is linear and symmetric in structure, its equilibrium dipole moment is zero. A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to the symmetric stretching mode of 2 is shown in Figure 6. Figure 6. The symmetric stretching mode of carbon dioxide Symmetric bond stretching Symmetric bond contracting For the symmetric stretch, the dipole moment does not change, since stretching or contracting the - bonds in a symmetric fashion does not break the symmetry of the molecule. Thus, the dipole moment remains zero throughout the vibration and the symmetric stretching mode is not IR active.
5 A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to the antisymmetric stretching mode of 2 is shown in Figure 7. 5 Figure 7. The antisymmetric stretching mode of carbon dioxide Antisymmetric bond stretching Antisymmetric bond stretching For the antisymmetric stretching mode, when the - bonds are in their equilibrium positions, the dipole moment is zero. owever, when one - bond is stretched and the other is contracted, the symmetry of the charge distribution is broken, and the molecule gains a dipole moment. Therefore, the antisymmetric stretching mode is IR active. A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to one of the degenerate bending modes is shown in Figure 8. The other degenerate bend is identical to the one shown, but it is at right angles to the one shown and out of the plane. Figure 8. ne of the bending modes of carbon dioxide Angle bending Angle bending The molecule begins its bending motion at equilibrium and the dipole moment is zero. When the angle bends, the center of negative charge is shifted down so that it is no longer in line with the center of positive charge; thus, the molecule acquires a dipole moment. This mode is IR active because the dipole moment changes as the molecule bends. For carbon dioxide, three of the four vibrational modes are infrared active: the antisymmetric stretch and the two degenerate bends. Therefore, those three should be observed in the infrared spectrum of 2 ; however, since the degenerate bends occur with the same harmonic vibrational frequency, only two primary peaks will be observed. An example infrared spectrum for carbon dioxide is shown in Figure 9. The peak at about 670 cm 1 corresponds to the degenerate bending modes; the other large peak around 2300 cm 1 corresponds to the antisymmetric stretching mode. The small peaks observed in the range cm 1 correspond to combination bands.
6 6 Figure 9. Infrared spectrum of gas phase carbon dioxide (from webbook.nist.gov). EXAMPLE 3: Acetylene Acetylene has seven vibrational modes since it is a linear tetratomic molecule. These vibrations are summarized in the table below. Mode Frequency (cm 1 ) IR activity symmetric - stretch 3370 not IR active antisymmetric - stretch 3290 IR active - stretch 1970 not IR active symmetric -- bend (2 modes) 610 not IR active antisym -- bend (2 modes) 730 IR active A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to the symmetric - stretching mode of acetylene is shown in Figure 10. Figure 10. Symmetric - stretching mode of acetylene Symmetric - bond stretching Symmetric - bond contracting Since acetylene is a linear molecule, its equilibrium dipole moment is zero. The dipole moment does not change during the symmetric - stretching mode, since stretching or contracting the - bonds in a symmetric fashion does not break the symmetry of the molecule. Thus, the dipole moment remains zero throughout the vibration and the symmetric - stretching mode is not IR active.
7 A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to the antisymmetric - stretching mode of acetylene is shown in Figure Figure 11. Antisymmetric - stretching mode of acetylene Antisymmetric - bond stretching Antisymmetric - bond contracting In this case, when one - bond is stretched and the other is contracted, the symmetry of the charge distribution is broken, and the molecule gains a dipole moment. Therefore, the antisymmetric - stretching mode is IR active. A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to the - stretching mode of acetylene is shown in Figure 12. Figure stretching mode of acetylene Symmetric - bond stretching Symmetric - bond contracting The molecule begins its stretching motion at equilibrium with a dipole moment of zero. When the - bond stretches or contracts, the dipole moment remains zero. Since there is no change in dipole moment during the - stretch, this mode is not IR active.
8 A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to one of the degenerate symmetric -- bending modes of acetylene is shown in Figure Figure 13. ne of the symmetric -- bending modes of acetylene Symmetric -- bending Symmetric -- bending The symmetric bending of the -- bond produces no change in the dipole moment. It starts at zero and it remains zero; therefore, the mode is not IR active. A sketch of the vibrational motion corresponding to one of the degenerate antisymmetric -- bending modes of acetylene is shown in Figure 14. Figure 14. ne of the antisymmetric -- bending modes of acetylene Antisymmetric -- bending Antisymmetric -- bending Since both hydrogens move to one side of the molecule during the course of the vibration, the antisymmetric -- bending modes are IR active. For acetylene, only three of the seven vibrational modes are infrared active: the antisymmetric - stretch and the doubly degenerate antisymmetric -- bends. Therefore, those three should be observed in the infrared spectrum of 2 ; however, since the degenerate bends occur with the same harmonic vibrational frequency, only two primary peaks will be observed. An example infrared spectrum for acetylene is shown in Figure 15. The large peak at about 700 cm 1 corresponds to the doubly degenerate antisymmetric -- bending modes. The peak at about 3300 cm 1 corresponds to the antisymmetric - stretching mode (the "doublet"-like appearance is due to unresolved rotational structure). The small peak observed in the range cm 1 is an overtone or combination band.
