Introduction – Formic acid (FA) very abundant organic compound & the simplest carboxylic acid • Widely used in chemistry • Abundant in the atmosphere and the ISM • Model system for the properties of carboxylic acids – Dimeric form dominant in the gas phase in standard conditions (STP): ~ 92%. • Peculiar thermodynamical properties. • Cyclic dimer (FAD) is an elementary system for the Concerted Proton transfer process. • IR bands of the dimer are unresolved at room temperature: spectral congestion + Doppler broadening. 2 ISMS – Urbana-Champaign (USA), June 18 -22, 2018 20/06/2018 – Thérèse HUET
Spectroscopic issues Prolate asymmetric top (κ ~ -0. 7) belonging to the C 2 h point group. No pure rotation spectrum; 12 IR and 12 Raman active modes. Concerted proton transfer with TS in D 2 h (~ G 8) Series hard to follow: Statistical weights (Ka, Kc) ee: eo: oe: oo = 1: 3: 9: 3 Rovibrational levels split into 2 tunneling states: lower (l) and upper (u) Selection rules different according to band type.

The n 24 fundamental band of the cyclic formic acid dimer Conclusion - Pioneering work on the n 22 fundamental band at 1200 cm-1 : Identification of the Concerted Proton transfer process (M. Havenith) - Using QCL IR spectroscopy in a supersonic expansion : effective model to reproduce the structure with doublet (c-type interaction) (C. Duan) - The present work : first observation and analysis of a FIR band of the cyclic formic acid dimer, the n 24 fundamental band at 263 cm-1 - To be done: assignment of the higher Ka lines (Q-branches) of the n 24 fundamental band - Ground state: Need for a global analysis of all IR and FIR data, using laser and FTIR spectra. 12 ISMS – Urbana-Champaign (USA), June 18 -22, 2018 20/06/2018 – Thérèse HUET
