We present first results on the pressure broadening, in the $\nu 14$ band of $C6H6$, i.e. we investigated collisions of $C6H6$ and air near $1024.6cm-1$ and $1050.2cm-1$ Using autocorrelation technique for the determination of an averaged broadening coefficient we found a self broadening coefficient of $(0.13\pm 0.01)cm-1$/atm an air broadening coefficient of $(0.086\pm 0.025)cm-1$/atm for the $1024.6cm-1$ region (pp branch, $37\le J\prime \prime \le 43$). In the region near $1050.2cm-1$ (RR branch, $30\le J\prime \prime \le 38$) the air broadening coefficient is remarkably $(0.139\pm 0.001)cm-1$/atm and even larger than the self broadening coefficient is remarkably larger $(0.139\pm 0.001)cm1$/atm and even larger than the self broadening coefficient stated above. Additional we will present first result for individual line parameters using a fit algorithm.
