Abstract
The IR spectra of nitro- and polynitroimidazoles, and their salts are investigated. Salt formation with nitroimidazoles is shown to involve one nitro group, with conversion of the imidazole ring to an isoimidazole one. Assignment of frequencies to valence vibrations of NO in charged and uncharged NO2 groups, and to skeleton vibrations of the ring, is made for nitroimidazoles, so that these data can be used to identify newly synthesized compounds.
