Notes.

(a), (b), (c), and (d)

are from Parker et al. (1957) Schaff & Roberts (1999), NIST chemical webbook (http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/) and Murphy et al. (2000), respectively; ν stands for stretching mode, δ for bending mode, ρ for rocking mode, as for asymmetric mode, and s for symmetric mode. The word “no” indicates non-observed vibrations.
