Cubane is a colorless solid.
It melts at 130- 131°C, and decomposes above the melting point.
It is soluble in CS2, CC14, CHC13, and benzene.
Spectra were obtained from 400 to 3600 cm-l with a Beckman
IR-12 spectrophotometer. The lower limit was set by KBr cell windows.
In addition a thick deposit of do was measured down to 200 cm-l
in a Csl cell. Since no infrared bands were found, the range 200-400
cm-l was not examined for the other compounds. The spectral
slit widths were 1-2 cm-l in all cases.
In the infrared spectrum, there are only noticeable absorptions in
the region from 4000 to 660 cm-1 appear at 300,1231, and
851 cm-1. |
