Applications of Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy in inorganic chemistry—a considered view

Effects of Excitation Wavelength on the Raman Spectra of Vanadium(V) Oxo Compounds

“…Vanadium(V) Oxytrichloride. Characterization of vanadium(V) oxytrichloride with Raman spectroscopy has been reported by several authors. − These investigations cover solid, liquid, and vapor phases of the substance. Apart from the observation of Eichhoff and Weigel 24 that irradiation with light of wavelength < 500 nm results in considerable photodecomposition of the sample, no effects of excitation wavelength on the Raman spectrum of vanadium(V) oxytrichloride are reported in the literature.…”

Real-time monitoring of microwave-promoted organometallic ligand-substitution reactions using in situ Raman spectroscopy

“…The bands from the parent hexacarbonyl decreased in intensity and three new bands grew in at 2073 cm 21 , 1988 cm 21 and 1943 cm 21 (the band at 1584 cm 21 originates from triphenylphosphine). By comparison with literature data, 11 the three bands can be attributed to the formation of Mo(CO) 5 (PPh 3 ). Holding the reaction mixture at 160 uC for a further 1 min has little effect.…”

Raman Spectroscopy

“…In situ Raman measurements using a fiber-optic optrode have been carried out (31), and the in situ analysis of thinlayer chromatography plates by FT Raman spectroscopy has been described (32,33). The application of FT techniques in inorganic materials (34) and in the analysis of cement minerals (35) has been considered. Other areas of application of Raman spectroscopy which have been reviewed include gemology (56), stress measurements (57), combustion diagnostics (38), and the study of phase transitions (39).…”
