- Abstract:
- This dissertation describes the development of a stopped-flow ultra-rapid-scanning Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and its application for studying the kinetics and mechanisms of rapid chemical reactions. The instrument can consistently measure 200 full-range mid-IR (4000-800 cm{esc}p-1{esc}s) spectra per second which meshes seamlessly with the ~10ms mixing time of a stopped-flow instrument. With recent upgrades this instrument is capable of measuring 1000 full-range mid-IR spectra per second. This instrument is still a prototype and with a faster mixing device one can exploit the faster rate of data collection. The secondary focus describes mechanistic studies of transition metal carbonyls with nitrosyl chloride.
