In the region of about 4100 cm-i (2.4 p) the acetylene spectrum is mostly due to “I + ~5~and its associated “hot” bands originating from the levels 114= 1 (000110~) and 216= 1 (0000”11) in the ground electronic state. From a study of the emission spectrum of acetylene observed with a grille spectrometer, Delaval, Cartigny and Lecomte (I) identified six bands in this region and on the basis of their measurements they were able to determine some of the vibrational constants. Most of these constants have the same orders of magnitude compared to the ones evaluated from the acetylene bands in other spectral regions except for the constant ~55 which differs considerably from the value derived on the basis of studies of the 15 micron spectrum of acetylene (.2,3). The present study has been undertaken to resolve this discrepancy and evaluate the rotational constants for the levels involved. The previous high resolution absorption work of Wiggins, Plyler, and Tidwell (4) at 2.4~ was mainly confined to the investigation of the combination band ~1 + ~5’ and, therefore, it was not possible to reanalyze the absorption data to correlate the results with the emission results. The experimental procedures adopted here are the same as those described in previous publications from this laboratory. The energy levels and the rotational constants resulting from this study are summarized in Table I and the observational data (with accuracy of about f0.005 cm-l) on which they are based are given in Tables II-IV.

FIG. 1. Effects of perturbations in iZCxH~ bands. Erratum: The labeling of the band ~1 + (~4 + Y#’ Y,,’ is erroneously given as Y~(Y( + Y# - ~4~in the left half of the figure.
The main conclusions reached in the present work are summarized below. The molecular constants determined are consistent with the information obtained from the experimental data for nearly thirty other bands of acetylene studied in this laboratory. The spectral resolution available at 2.4 p allowed the observation of Q branch structures in addition to the R and P branches and therefore, we could study the molecular constants in greater detail. This was not possible in the case of the emission work (1). Second, the observational effect of perturbations in states where the 214= 1 and 210= 1 levels are simultaneously excited are similar to those observed earlier (5, 6). These effects are clearly evident from the reproduction shown in Fig. 1 where the appropriate combination relations are plotted. Finally, we find that the gj:, constant is correct as in Refs. _ 3 and 3 and the difference from the determination in Ref. 1 is probably due to the way in which this constant has been defined in that work. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The financial support extended by the C. N. R., Italy is gratefully acknowledged. One of us (K. N. R.) would like to express his thanks for the part support extended this research by the National Science Foundation. REFERENCES 1. Y. DELAVAL, J. CARTIGNY, ANDJ.
