Notation schemes for substituted benzenes Introduction - Existing schemes M notation - Mass trends - G-W Notation Experiments - Previous studies - Fluorobenzene - Fluorobenzene-d 5 Conclusions - Future work Wilson notation Mulliken notation Varsányi notation Normal modes of molecule labelled with respect to normal modes of benzene Benzene has D 6h symmetry; lowers to C 2v upon substitution Normal modes arranged in symmetry blocks, then by decreasing energy Does not account for energetic re-ordering Loses information on motion of vibrations Subdivides substituents into two classes; ‘heavy’ and ‘light’ Unclear division between the two classes

Gardner-Wright Notation Takes fluorobenzene as a template molecule Applies Mulliken labelling scheme (ie. decreasing energy ordering within symmetry blocks) Treats the target molecule’s substituent as a point mass J Chem Phys 135 114305 (2011) Introduction - Existing schemes M notation - Mass trends - G-W Notation Experiments - Previous studies - Fluorobenzene - Fluorobenzene-d 5 Conclusions - Future work
4
Mass Trends Introduction - Existing schemes M notation - Mass trends - G-W Notation Experiments - Previous studies - Fluorobenzene - Fluorobenzene-d 5 Conclusions - Future work J Chem Phys 135 114305 (2011) Some mode switching seen for lower masses Mass trends settle down quite quickly Lowest mass atomic substituent would be fluorine x = 1 - 20
