Notes

1Fluxuation bands in absorption from 39350 to 36600 cm-1.
2From the IR spectrum Ritchie and Lew, 1964, Baikov and Vasilevskii, 1967.
3For IR frequencies in low-temperature rare gas matrices, see Snelson and Pitzer, 1963.
4Rot.-vibr. sp. 3
5μel[D] = 8.1235 + 0.0644(v+1/2) + 0.00037(v+1/2)2, v≤2 Hollowell, Hebert, et al., 1964, Graff and Werth, 1965; see also Bauer and Lew, 1963. Na quadrupole coupling constant, dependence on v Bauer and Lew, 1963, Hollowell, Hebert, et al., 1964, Graff and Werth, 1965; earlier, less accurate values by the magnetic resonance method Zeiger and Bolef, 1952, Logan, Cote, et al., 1952, Cote and Kusch, 1953.
6Value recommended by Ham, 1974 and based on the highest Na levels observed in chemiluminescent emission from the reaction Na2 + F > NaF + Na*. It is in agreement with the flame-photometric value (5.25 eV) of Bulewicz, Phillips, et al., 1961, but substantially higher than the thermochemical value (4.93 eV) given by Brewer and Brackett, 1961 or derived from the data in Stull and Prophet, 1971.
