Abstract

The MCD spectra of iodoform and methylene iodide have been measured in solution in the spectral region of the low intensity bands of the n → σ* transitions. The MCD spectra provide additional information that is utilized in the assignment of the various transitions in these molecules.

    However, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) experiments done for CH2I2 determined the two bands ∼295 and ∼276 nm correlate to B1 and B2 states with undetermined order and a weak shoulder ∼313 nm that correlates to a nominally forbidden transition [3]. This discrepancy between the MCD results and those for the simple exciton model computations and molecular beam polarization experiments for CH2I2 remains to be resolved [1, 3]. This uncertainty in the CH2I2 absorption band assignments may also have implications for the CF2I2 absorption band assignments that are based on the CH2I2 results and limited experimental data.
