Observed and DFT-calculated IR spectra of n-BuM (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb), (CHCHCHCD)Sn, and n-BuAuPPh-d are reported and assigned. The asymmetric CH stretching vibration of the CH group adjacent to the metal atom appears as a distinct shoulder at ∼2934 cm, whereas for other CH groups it is located at ∼2922 cm. The characteristic peak at ∼2899 cm is attributed to an overtone of a symmetric CH bend at ∼1445 cm. In n-BuAuPPh-d, the CH stretching vibrations of the butyl group are shifted to lower frequencies by ∼10 cm, and two possible rationalizations are offered.
