Spectroscopic Studies of Metal-Ligand-Surface Interactions

Abstract

A four part program of research on the vibrational spectroscopy of hydrazine, aromatic hydrocarbons, metals and clays and their interactions has been carried out. Vibrational spectra of hydrazine and its deuterated analogs have been obtained in cold rare gas matrices. A theoretical study of the vibrational frequencies and intensities of these systems has been carried out and used to interpret the observed spectra. Hydrazine has been reacted with various metal atoms and ions and their Raman or infrared spectra recorded and interpreted. Finally, the vibrational spectra of specific clay minerals and the effect of adsorbed metal cations and aromatic hydrocarbons were obtained and used to study the interactions between these species.
