resumo
A thorough vibrational portrait of 4-fluorobenzaldehyde is presented, covering Infrared (Mid- and Far-), Raman and Inelastic Neutron Scattering (INS) spectra. Periodic DFT calculations (CASTEP) of a model 4FB crystal proved useful for vibrational assignment, yielding estimates of experimental spectra with near one-to-one correspondence Ð including the correct estimation of overtone and combination modes. A striking similarity among the Far-IR spectrum of liquid 4FB and that estimated based on a periodic structure indicates that the solid-liquid transition induces soft structural changes which leave most vibrational modes unaffected Ð except for those directly involved in CÐHÉO bonding, where crystal field splitting is observed. © 2019 The Author(s)
