THE OH STRETCHING BANDS OF ALCOHOLS IN NON-POLAR SOLVENTS

Abstract

Dilute solutions of n-propyl alcohol in non-polar solvents (carbon tetrachloride, tetrachloroethylene, and carbon disulfide) were studied by IR spectrophotometric analysis. Variation of the absolute intensities of monomeric and polymeric OH bands with increasing concentration at 25 C was observed. Within the concentration range studied (0.04 - 0.29M) the principal polymer formed in CCl4 solutions was dimeric; in C2Cl4 and CS2 solutions the principal polymer was trimeric. Equilibrium constants were calculated for the monomer- polymer reaction in each solvent.
