Abstract
The absolute in frared absorption intensities of the fundamental bands of some halogen derivatives of methane have been measured in the solid state at liquid nitrogen temperatures, using standard $techniques.^{1-3}$ Comparison of the results with the intensities obtained for these bands in the gas phase reveals that the changes are relatively small, especially for derivatives which do not contain H atoms. Primarily, results for chloroform $(CC/_{3}H)^{3}$ and trichlorofluoro methane $(CC/_{3}F)^{4}$ will be presented. Here the C-H stretch in $CC/_{3}H$ increases in intensity from gas to solid by a factor of $30,^{3}$ while the corresponding C-F stretching vibration in $CC/_{2}F$ changes only by a factor of 1.4. Other bands for both molecules show smaller changes (about a factor of 2). Financial support from the Army Research Office (Durham) and from Public Health Service Research Grant No. GM 14648 is gratefully acknowledge.
