The form of the C – H out of plane bending vibrations of the vinyl
group are shown below: The first two modes give rise to excellent group
frequencies, while the third fundamental does not lend itself to these
correlations.
Explain the factors that lead to the third mode being such a poor group
frequency.
b.) Predict the location in the spectrum of the third fundamental
