Notes. Tentative assignments are in italics. Non-scaled anharmonic vibrational frequencies and intensities (in parentheses) were computed at the (U)B3LYP/cc-pVTZ//(U)B3LYP/cc-pVTZ level. (a)The gas-phase value of 1578 cm–1 attributed to the COstr mode of the cis-CH3CHCHO radical may be overestimated as the spectral bands are very broad. Yacovitch et al. (2011) did not provide the error bars for this vibrational frequency measurement.
