摘要

Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectra of solid 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone were measured and compared with IR and Raman data. The INS spectrum is very well reproduced in the region below 1000 cm(-1) by DFT calculations on the B3LYP/6-311++G** level using Gaussian and Climax programs. To get a better agreement one should take into account additional interactions of OH groups in the solid state leading to an increase of the gamma(OH) frequency and to a decrease of frequencies for modes in which the delta(OH) participates. The studies of the deuterated compound in IR enabled to correct the assignment of gamma(OH) vibrations. Highly asymmetric nu(OH) band observed in IR spectrum with sharp maximum at about 3300 cm(-1) is discussed in terms of a stochastic approach to the analysis of hydrogen bonded systems.
