Notes:
The infrared spectra of the ν3, ν4, and ν6 bands of formaldehyde in the region from 890 cm−1 to 1580 cm−1 have been obtained at high resolution using tunable diode laser (TDL) and Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The transition frequencies have been analyzed using a Hamiltonian including terms through sextic in centrifugal distortion and including five interstate vibration–rotation coupling terms. Excited state pure rotational transitions are also included in the data, and their frequencies are reproduced well. Individual measured line intensities are used to determine dipole derivatives and band strengths using the fully coupled, asymmetric top eigenvectors.
