Abstract

The gas phase absorption spectrum of oxalyl fluoride in the region of 37 000-29 300 cm-1 has been examined at high resolution. Singlet-singlet over(A, ̃)1 Au ← over(X, ̃)1 Ag and singlet-triplet over(a, ̃)3 Au ← over(X, ̃)1 Ag electronic transitions of the trans-conformer were found in the spectrum. The fundamental frequencies of trans-oxalyl fluoride in the over(A, ̃)1 Au and over(a, ̃)3 Au electronic states were determined. In the low resolution ultraviolet absorption spectrum of oxalyl fluoride in the gas phase the over(A, ̃)1 B1 ← over(X, ̃)1 A1 transition of the cis-conformer (νmax) was found to be shifted to the blue by about 6000 cm-1 relative to the over(A, ̃)1 Au ← over(X, ̃)1 Ag transition of the trans-conformer.
