Abstract

An FTIR isotopic study of vacuum UV photolyzed diacetylene (C4H2), 1,3-butadiene (C4H6), and their various deuterated and carbon-13 substituted isotopomers has enabled the assignment of the $\nu_{1}, C-H$ stretching, and the $\nu_{2}, C \equiv C$ stretching vibrations, as well as confirmed the previous assignment of a band at $2060.5 cm^{-1}$ to $\nu_{3}$, the second $C \equiv C$ $vibration.^{1}$ Based on the isotopic data, a study of concentration effects, and the results of the calculations by the Wilson GF matrix technique, absorptions at $3307.4 cm^{-1}$ and $2083.9 cm^{-1}$ are identified as the $\nu_{1}$ and $\nu_{2}$ stretching vibrations of $C_{4}H$, respectively
