Abstract
The spectrum of the linear carbon chain molecule C5 in the gas phase has been studied around 2170 cm−1, the region of the highest asymmetric stretching vibration ν3. The results were obtained using a tunable diode laser spectrometer and a cooled hollow cathode discharge in a flowing mixture of acetylene and helium. Four vibration–rotation bands were assigned and analyzed: the fundamental, a hot band arising from the v7=1, l=1 vibrational level, a second hot band arising from v7=2, l=0, and a third hot band tentatively ascribed to v5=1, l5=1. Small local perturbations were found to affect the upper vibrational states of two of the bands. Analysis of the data yielded accurate values for a number of molecular parameters for C5, e.g., the band origin ν3= 2169.4410(2) cm−1, the rotational constant, B0 =2557.63(9) MHz, and the l-type doubling parameters, q7=3.99(6) MHz, and q5=2.36(9) MHz. The value of q7 may be used to estimate a value of 118 cm−1 for the lowest bending frequency of the molecule. There is no evidence in C5 for quasilinear behavior such as that shown by C3 and C3O2.
