Only modes with calculated integrated intensities greater than 0.2 cm/mmol and frequencies less than 600−1 are listed. Frequencies with asterisks denote peaks that are close in frequency or part of a broad peak and that cannot be clearly separated at 1 bar. These peaks are identified by the same frequency in the table. The following notation is used: P, porphine ring; op, out of P-plane; ip, in the P-plane; Cm, Cα,β-methine bridge and pyrrole rings carbon atoms; Py, axially bound pyridine.
