“…23 In band fitting of spectra of the solutions with different amounts of water added, a band at 925 cm 1 had to be added, which was done in accordance with band component analysis of lithium and sodium perchlorate solutions in water by Frost et al 24 and Miller and Macklin. 12,13,23,26 Simultaneously with splitting of the 2 band, in the case of bidentate coordination, the appearance of a new band at the low-wavenumber side of the 1 fundamental was observed. We believe that this band is due to the overtone of the 2 perchlorate band in solutions containing water.…”
