Notes:
The first infrared spectrum of gas phase, jet-cooled C4 has been measured by high resolution diode laser absorption spectroscopy. Twelve rovibrational transitions are assigned to the ν3(σu) antisymmetric stretch of linear 3Σ−g C4. No evidence is observed for the bent structure of triplet C4 recently observed in a matrix study by Cheung and Graham [J. Chem. Phys. 91, 6664 (1989)]. Indeed, the measured band origin (1548.9368(21) cm−1) and effective ground state C–C bond length [1.304 31(21)A] are consistent with several ab initio predictions of a rigid, linear, cumulenic structure for this cluster radical.
