Characterization of ternary and quaternary metal hydrides by Raman spectroscopy appears to be rather scarce due primarily to the decomposition of the metal hydrides by the energy of the laser excitation source. We report the results of some recent room temperature Raman measurements collected with a 2-10 mW 488 nm laser source for M RuH where M5Ca, Sr and Eu. The assignments from this 2 6 study are combined with existing vibrational data for other metal hydrides.

The vibrational spectra (Raman, photoacoustic and Fourier transform infrared and inelastic neutron scattering) of the calcium, strontium and europium salts of hexahydrido- and hexadeuteridoruthenate(II) have been analyzed. All observed fundamental modes and overtone and combination bands are assigned. Density functional theory calculations of the vibrational frequencies assist in the analysis.
