Abstract

Previous studies of the parallel bands $2\nu_{2}$ and $2\nu_{5}{^{0}}$ by the two first authors have been completed by the analysis of the weaker perpendicular band $\nu_{2} + \nu_{5}$, centered near 2745 $cm^{-1}$, which was recorded using the Littrow instrument of the University of Tennessee. It is well known, that the $v_{2} = 1$ and $v_{5} = 1$ states of methyl-bromide are linked by a x-y type Coriolis interaction. Therefore, in the 2500-2900 $cm^{-1}$ range, the levels $(v_{2} = 2), (v_{5} = 2, \ell_{5} = 0), (v_{5} = 2, \ell_{5} = \pm 2), (v_{5} = v_{2} = 1, \ell_{5} = \pm 1)$ are linked by a similar interaction. Least squares and prediction programs have been written to treat such problems and they have been satisfactorily applied to both isotopic species $CH_{3}{^{7}9}Br$ and $CH_{3}{^{8}1}Br$.
