A Normal Coordinate Vibrational Analysis of N-Sulphinylimide

A vibrational analysis has been carried out on both syn- and anti-conformations of N-sulphinylimide, H-N=S=O. A simple on-diagonal force field is used, the validity of which was established by comparison with a normal coordinate analysis for DNSO. The potential energy distributions show that the N=S...

Description
Summary:A vibrational analysis has been carried out on both syn- and anti-conformations of N-sulphinylimide, H-N=S=O. A simple on-diagonal force field is used, the validity of which was established by comparison with a normal coordinate analysis for DNSO. The potential energy distributions show that the N=S and S=O stretching modes are coupled. The pseudo-asymmetric N=S=O stretching mode of predominantly N=S character occurs at higher wavenumber than the pseudo-symmetric N=S=O mode of predominantly S=O character. The N=S and S=O bond orders are evaluated.
