Abstract

“Raman spectra of the borohydride ion have been obtained from solutions of lithium, sodium, and potassium borohydrides dissolved in liquid ammonia at temperatures of about $-50^\circ C$. The investigation included the various isotopic species, $B^{11}H_{4}$, $B^{11}D^{-}_{4}$, $B^{10}H^{-}_{4}$, $B^{10}D^{-}_{4}$, and both $ND_{a}$ and $ND_{a}$ were used as solvents. All fundamentals were observed and a satisfactory assignment has been made which agrees with the polarization data and the product rule. The vibrational assignments of $Al(BH_{4})_{3}$ will be discussed briefly in terms of the Raman spectra of the four isotopic species in the liquid state at $0^\circ C$.”
