Résumé. 2014 On a identifié environ 500 raies de 03BD2 + 03BD4 et 1 300 de 03BD3 + 03BD4 sur un spectre obtenu en très haute résolution (0,007 5 cm-1). La résonance anharmonique, déjà observée entre 03BD±14 et 3 03BD±16, a été trouvée également
entre 03BD2 + 03BD±14 et 03BD2 + 3 03BD±16, ainsi qu’entre 03BD3 + 03BD±14 et 03BD3 + 3 03BD±16: son influence sur les centres de bande, et
donc sur la mesure des constantes d’anharmonicité x24 et x34, n’est pas négligeable. Dans les deux cas on a donné
une explication partielle du spectre, ne tenant pas compte des autres résonances dépendant de J.
Abstract. 2014 About 500 lines of 03BD2 + 03BD4 and 1 300 of 03BD3 + 03BD4 have been assigned on a spectrum obtained in very
high resolution (0.007 5 cm-1). The anharmonic resonance, already observed between 03BD±14 and 3 03BD±16, has also
been found between 03BD2 + 03BD±14 and 03BD2 + 3 03BD±16, and between 03BD3 + 03BD±14 and 03BD3 + 3 03BD±16: its influence of the band centres, and thus on the measurement of the x24 and x34 anharmonicity constants, is not negligible. In both cases
a partial explanation of the spectrum has been given, not taking the other (depending on J) perturbations into
account.

1. Introduction. - The anharmonic resonance
between vi 1 and 3 v6 ’ has been studied by different authors [1-5] who found a coupling constant about
3.5 cm-1. The same resonance of course happens
between 2 v+4 2 and v+41 + 3 v6+1 [2, 6, 7] : however
the coupling constant should be /2 bigger, which
does not seem to be experimentally confirmed [7].
The same resonance should also exist, with the same coupling constant around 3.5 cm-1, between V2 + vi 1
and V2 + 3 v61, or between V3 + v41 and V3 + 3 v± 6
it is the subject of the present work, which is only
concerned with the isotopic species CH3C135.
2. Experimental conditions. - The spectrum has been obtained in a single recording from 3 500 up to 6 000 cm-1 with a Fourier transform interfero- meter [8-11] ; only two parts of this spectrum have been used for the present work : the 3 690-3 870 range
for v3 + V4 and the 4 310-4 450 range for v2 + v4.

The source is an iodine lamp and the detector used in our case is a PbS cell. The pressure, the optical path and the resolution are respectively 0.8 torr, 28 m and 0.007 5 cm-1.
3. The v2 + v4 band. - 3 .1 ASSIGNMENTS. - The v2 + vi 1 band is presumably submitted to many other interactions than the anharmonic resonance with v2 + 3 v: 1. As a matter of fact, the v2 and vs modes being coupled by a strong Coriolis resonance
[12], therefore the v2 + v4 band is linked to both components of the v4 + v5 band. For the same reason
the V2 + 3 v+61 band is coupled to both compo- nents of v. + 3 v6+1. Besides, the study of v2 + V6 and v5 + V6 [13] has shown that it is necessary to take into account a Fermi resonance between
with a coupling constant W’ - 0.6 cm - 1 : so, we
must expect a similar coupling between vs 1 + 3 v6’
and 2 v3 + 3 v61. The corresponding scheme has been drawn on figure 1, where the l(2,2) resonances

Fig. 1. - Scheme of interaction. The (v2 =1, V4 =11, K) level is coupled to the (vs =1-1, v4 =11, K -1) and (v5 = v4 =11, K+1)
levels by a Coriolis resonance; at low K, it is beneath these two
levels; when K increases, it remains under the second one, but overtakes the first one at K - 9. The (v2 =1, v4 =1-’, K ) level
is coupled by the same resonance to the (v5 =11, v4 =1-1, K + 1)
and (v5 = v4 =1-1, K -1 ) levels; at low K, it is also beneath these two levels; when K increases, it remains under the first one, but overtakes the second one at K N 10. We remind that K is the absolute value of k.
of the v4 and v6 modes have been omitted to make it more simple. We did not intend to study all this
very complicated band system, but wanted only to explain the Fermi resonance between v2 + v+41 and
v2 + 3 v+61; so we have only considered the central part of the spectrum of v2 + V4’
As a matter of fact, a rough calculation shows that the two centres of v2 + v¡ 1 and V2 + 3 v: 1 are close
and that a level crossing is expected for a low value
of K, i.e. in this part of the spectrum where v2 + V4 is well separated from V4 + v5, whose centre is 100 cm -1 above (see comment of fig. 1). It is exactly
what we observe on the spectrum where the Q branches stop being regularly spaced between 4 358 and 4 379 cm-1, which obviously is the sign of a Fermi
resonance with level crossing. The positions of the
different Q branches are given in table I, with their assignments we have obtained according to the
method explained just below.
As the B", D"j and D"JK constants of the fundamental level are well known [13-15], we have been able to confirm our assignments with the combination rela-
tionships connecting the three RK(J - 1), QK(J)
and PK( J + 1) lines of the same K and AK. For
instance the relationship between the wavenumbers of the RK(J - 1) and the PK( J + 1) lines can be
written :
Table I. - Positions of the Q branch heads of V2 + V4’
With this method it is easy to identify the value of J without ambiguity; but it is impossible to distinguish
the values 0, 1 and 2 for K, because the quantity (4 J + 2) D"JK K2 is too small for these low values of K. Generally these values of K are identified by continuity : for example, in case of a perpendicular band, we follow the Q branches, starting from a higher value of K. It is what we have done for RQ2,
’Q 1 and RQo (1), which have been assigned just after RQ4 and RQ3. On the AK = - 1 side, the combina- tion relationships helped us to assign the K = 5
and 4 sub bands and also two K = 3 sub bands;
but there were four Q branches between these two
’Q3 branches and the RQo branch : therefore these four Q branches were necessarily two PQ2 and two PQ1 1 branches. The figure 2, corresponding to the

(1) For K = 0, only the relationship RK(J - 1) - PK(J + 1) can be used ; because of the strong Coriolis resonance between v2 + V4 and v4 + vs, and because of the 1 doubling of the v4 mode, the QK(J) lines cannot be connected to RK(J - 1) and PK(J + 1).

heads (2) of the different Q branches and their assign-

as we shall explain it later, we do not distinguish the Q branch

3.2 INTERPRETATION. - a) When two energy levels E1 and E2 are only coupled by a Fermi resonance, the
perturbed energy is given by :
where W is the coupling constant.
If vi and V2 are the unperturbed transitions between the same lower level and respectively E1 and E2,
then the perturbed transition is given by :
Except of course for very high values of J, all the lines of the same K sub band give more or less the
same information about the Fermi resonance; so, we can only consider the hypothetical J = 0 levels
in equation (1) or the sub band origins in equation (2).
And in the present case it was absolutely necessary to follow this method in order to get rid of the strong Coriolis interaction between v2 + V4 and V4 + v5 :
we do not pretend that the sub band origins are not
shifted at all by the Coriolis resonance, but, at least if we consider K sub bands far enough from the cross- ing of V2 + V4 and v4 + v5, the influence of the Coriolis interaction is certainly very small at low

values of J. Then, using the relationship (2) for the Q
branch heads as if they were sub band origins, we
can take :
with in both cases :
In these conditions the equation (2) is that of an hyper-
bola whose asymptotes are the straight lines given by equations (3). It is what we observe on the figure 2,
where the b1 and b2 asymptote slopes are quite close
to those expected for V2 + v4+1 and V2 + 3 v+61.
Besides; the figure 2 gives W - 2.65 cm-1, while
the value 3.5 is expected.
b) The preceding interpretation may be easily improved because our « Q branch heads » are not
exactly sub band origins, and because in reality the equations (3) of the sub band origins are not linear;
thus, to be more accurate, we have dealt with the Fermi resonance between the hypothetical J = 0
upper energy levels, using this time the equation (1).
For this purpose we have fitted the upper energy levels of the different lines of the same K" sub band with the following empirical formula :
It is quite possible to do this fitting, since we know
the values of the constants A ", B", Dj’, D"JK and D"
of the fundamental level, which is the lower level of the involved transitions. In equation (5) we have used
up to six parameters, but only the first three of them have a physical meaning : for unperturbed levels,
CK, is equal to - D’J, BK, is the quantity B’ - D’JK K’2,
and ÈK, is equal to
For each sub band a least squares calculation has given
the optimal values of the parameters involved in the
equation (5) ; the results are gathered in table II,
.while the observed wavenumbers are given in
table III (3).

and for V2 + 3 v6 the expected value of B’ is
So, if the anharmonic resonance was the only pertur- bation, the parameters Bx of table II should be bet-
ween these two values. In fact we can see that the values of hK are in the range 0.435 0-0.438 3; these particularly low values, which correspond to the spreading of the Q branches towards the low frequen-
cies on the spectrum (Figs. 3, 4, 5, 6), are caused by the
Coriolis resonance with V4 + vs. It is indeed well known that, when two levels are coupled by a Coriolis
resonance, the B constant of the upper level seems to be increased of AB, while the B of the lower level
seems to be decreased of the same quantity. This fact explains why the BK parameters of table II are so low,
since the upper levels of v2 + V4 are below the upper levels of V4 + v5 to which they are coupled (see com-
ment of figure 1).
We have considered that the parameters EK,,
i.e. precisely the hypothetical J = 0 upper energy levels, were not shifted by the Coriolis resonance.
With this assumption, the parameters Ex- are the eigenvalues of the secular equation :
where EE is the part of the unperturbed energy which does not depend on J :
We have processed the 13 EK, levels of table II in a
least squares calculation, according to equation (1’);
832
for both bands we held DK and D& fixed at the value
8.342 x 10-5 [13]. The following results have been obtained with a standard deviation of 0.016 cm-1 :
A " is given in [13] and B" in [13, 14, 15] ; we have
taken a6 and a6 at reference [16], at and a4 at refe-
rences [1, 3, 4] ; we have obtained a2 and af by com- bining the results of [16] and [13].
The values obtained for A’ must be compared to
those obtained for the fundamental bands : 0.319 for A’4 [4] and 1.310 0 for A’6 [16]. For (A’-B’) the agreement between expected and observed values is
quite good for both bands. On the other hand, as it
has been already said, the value obtained for W is lower than expected; this fact is not modified if
we take into account the weak z Coriolis resonance
which accompanies the anharmonic resonance, hold-
ing fixed its coupling constant at the value of refe-
rence [1].
4. The V3 + v4 band. - 4.1 ASSIGNMENTS. - We have assigned six sub bands (from K" = 1 up to K " = 6) on the AK = - 1 side and ten sub bands (from K" = 0 up to K" = 9) on the AK = + 1
side. All these sub bands look unperturbed ; the Q
branches are regularly spaced and spread towards
the low frequencies, as it is expected since B’ = 0.439 7
while B" = 0.443 4. We have assigned about 1 300 lines,
all belonging to the CH3C135 species, using the combi-
nation relationships (except of course for the RQo
series because of the 1 doubling).
4.2 INTERPRETATION. - We know that the V3 + v4 ’ 1
band is coupled to V3 + 3 v+61 by an anharmonic
resonance; an approximate calculation shows that the band centres are respectively around 3 772 and 3 759 cm-1; on the AK = + 1 side, the upper level of V3 + v4 is expected to be always above the corres- ponding upper level of V3 + 3 v6, the distance bet-
ween them increasing from 15 cm-1 up to 20 when K’ increases from 1 up to 10. But on the AK = - 1
side, a level crossing is expected for K’ = 7 or 8,
i.e. for ’Q8 or ’Qg we have unfortunately not observ- ed, because they are weak and overlapped by vi + V3
(Fig. 9).
As we did for V2 + v4, we have processed the lines
of each sub band in a least squares calculation accord-
ing to equation (5); when this equation is used with three parameters, the standard deviation may reach 0.019 cm-1; but when this equation is used with six parameters the standard deviation is always below
0.005 cm-1. The table IV gives the values of the
BK and EK parameters when the equation (5) is used
with three parameters. It can be noticed that the Bx
parameters are always smaller than the expected value B’ v,+v4 = 0.439 7; the difference
increases with K on the AK = + 1 side, and reaches 0.040 cm-1 for K = 10; this fact involves a shift
AB.J(J + 1) around 1.6 cm-’ at J = 20 on the spectrum. It reveals a strong Coriolis interaction : the perturbing level would always be above its homo-
logous level of V3 + v4 ; the strong variation of BK,
for K N 9 or 10 on the AK = + 1 side, would mean
that a level crossing occurs in this range. The simplest
scheme would imply a single perturbing band centred above v3 + v4 ; the perturbing (vx = ?, K - 1) level
would be overtaken by the (V3 = 1, v4 = 11, K) perturbed level at K = 10 or 11. As we have not

Table IV. - BK and EK parameters of V3 + V4’
seen any perturbing band on the spectrum, we have sought this perturbing band only by calculation.
Among the different possibilities that we have consi-
dered, only the (v2 = 1, v5 = 11, V6 = 1-’, K - 1)
and (V3 = 2, v5 = 1-1, V6 = 11, K - 1) levels can
cross the (v3 = 1, v4 = 1’, K) level for K - 10.
The first one must be excluded, because the (v3 = 1,
v4 = 11, 3) level would be strongly perturbed, which
is untrue on the spectrum. In these conditions the
only perturbing band should be 2 V3 + vs + v6, which is coupled to 2 V3 + v2 + V6 by a Coriolis
resonance. We have then built the corresponding
model but we did not succeed to obtain a good fit.
More details about these trials will be given in the
thesis of N. Bensari-Zizi, that will be submitted at
Paris-Sud University. As we could not find this strong resonance, depending on J, which mainly perturbs the AK = + 1 side of V3 + v4, we have tried to determine nevertheless the parameters of the band by a least squares calculation, either over the
EK levels, as we did for v2 + v4, or over the low J lines of the AK = - 1 side.
a) Least squares calculation over the Ex levels. -
Two calculations have been done according to the
method already applied to v2 + v4 (Eq. ( 1’)), one over
the 16 EK levels, and the other over the six levels of the AK = - 1 side. The results are the following :
(a) Fixed value.
OCA 3 and CXB 3 are taken at reference [171, at and a6 at reference [16].
In both calculations the coupling constant has been
held fixed at the value :
As we have not observed the crossing between V3 + v4 and V3 + 3 v6, our information about the perturb- ing band is poor, and it has been impossible to leave
the coupling constant free in the least squares cal- culation.
b) Least squares calculation over all the lines of
the AK = - 1 side with J 20. - Only the anhar-
monic interaction is taken into account. This calcula-
tion, over 233 lines, has given the following results
with a standard deviation of 0.012 cm -1.
As in the preceding calculation we have fixed W = 3.535 + 0.02 K AK. For the three levels we
have held fixed the centrifugal distortion constants at the values :
If the same 233 lines are processed in the least squares calculation, holding this time W fixed at 0 (i.e. neglect-
