abstract
Combination band spectra arising in the region 2000-2300 cm-1 of cyclopropylsilane can be attributed to the sum and difference bands of the internal rotation with an SiH stretching mode. Analysis of these spectra leads to a potential function for the internal rotation V(cm-1) = 693.92(1 - cos 3) - 10.28(1 - cos 6), where is the angle of internal rotation. The barrier to internal rotation is thus 1.98 kcal/mole. 1983.
