Abstract

The normal mode frequencies and the corresponding vibrational assignments of tetraphosphorous decaoxide (P4O10) in tetrahedral (Td) symmetry are examined theoretically. The Gaussian 98 set of quantum chemistry codes at the HF/6-311G*, MP2/6-311G* and DFT/B3LYP/6-311G* levels of theory are used. By comparison to experimental normal mode frequencies, correction factors for predominant vibrational motions are determined and compared.
