Abstract
The out-of-phase (C=O)<sub>2</sub> stretching mode for maleic anhydrides, <i>v</i><sub>out-of-phase</sub> (C=O)<sub>2</sub>, is in Fermi resonance with a <i>B</i><sub>1</sub> combination tone, and the extent of Fermi resonance interaction can be altered drastically depending upon the particular solvent system used in the study. The <i>v</i><sub>out-of-phase</sub> (C=O)<sub>2</sub> <i>v</i><sub>in-phase</sub> (C=O)<sub>2</sub> modes can be differentiated by solvent system studies, since the out-of-phase mode shifts more in frequency than the in-phase mode. Both <i>v</i>(C=O)<sub>2</sub> modes decrease in frequency as the polarity of the solvent system increases or the amount of intermolecular hydrogen bonding increases, such as in the case of an increasing mole % concentration of chloroform.
