S° = A*ln(t) + B*t + C*t²/2 + D*t³/3 − E/(2*t²) + G
C_p = heat capacity (J/mol*K)
H° = standard enthalpy (kJ/mol)
S° = standard entropy (J/mol*K)

Δ_rH°	174. ± 13.	kJ/mol	LPHP	Lewis, Golden, et al., 1984	Please also see Smith and Laine, 1981. Temperature range: 670-780 K. The reaction enthalpy at 298 K relies on an activation energy of 167.4 kJ/mol and assumes a negligible activation barrier for product recombination. The enthalpy of formation relies on -723.9 ± 6.7 kJ/mol for the enthalpy of formation of Fe(CO)5(g). At least two other estimates of the activation energy for the Fe(CO)4(g) + CO(g) recombination have been reported: 7.1 kJ/mol Miller and Grant, 1985 and 16.7 kJ/mol Walsh, 1986. In Lewis, Golden, et al., 1984 authors have considered that the Fe(CO)4(g) fragment is in its singlet excited state. However, it has also been suggested that the fragment is formed in its triplet ground state Ray, Brandow, et al., 1988 Sunderlin, Wang, et al., 1992; MS

Notes

Preceding the two K limits (see 88) are strong Rydberg series of absorption bands. The longest-wavelength absorptions correspond to excitation to the 2π orbital yielding a weak ³Π ← X ¹Σ⁺ and a strong ¹Π ← X ¹Σ⁺ peak at 283 and 285 eV for the transitions from ls_C and at 529 and 532 eV for the transitions from 1s₀ Nakamura, Morioka, et al., 1971. The transitions to the ¹Π states have also been observed in electron impact experiments at 287.7 and 534.4 eV van der Wiel, El-Sherbini, et al., 1970.

Dissociation produced by absorption in these bands and subsequent atomic fluorescence Lee, Carlson, et al., 1975; predissociation into C⁺ + O^- Locht and Durer, 1975.

Calcu1ated Franck-Condon factors for ionization: X ²Σ⁺ ← X ¹Σ⁺, A ²Π ← ¹Σ⁺, and B ²Σ⁺ ← X ¹Σ⁺, see Krupenie and Benesch, 1968 and Nicholls, 1968.

The progression P₅ of Tanaka, 1942 [called T in MOLSPEC 1 and missing citation] must be reclassified as representing the members n=6, 7, and 9 of series III; see the spectrograms of Tanaka, 1942 and Ogawa and Ogawa, 1972.

Diffuse looking bands.

Preionization observed in electro-ionization of CO Carbonneau and Marmet, 1973.

Absorption and photoionization coefficients from 1000 to 600 Å Cook, Metzger, et al., 1965.

These series and progressions from the high resolution work of Ogawa and Ogawa, 1972 agree only partially with the early work Tanaka, 1942, Takamine, Tanaka, et al., 1943 at lower resolution.

This strong absorption band is clearly present but not assigned on the spectrogram of Ogawa and Ogawa, 1972.

An absorption band at this wavenumber is visible but not identified on the published spectrogram of Ogawa and Ogawa, 1972.

This is the strongest system of Hopfield and Birge, 1927. It is clearly present on the reproduction of Ogawa and Ogawa, 1972, but these authors consider the first band at 950 Å as due to v'=1 of K(4pσ)←X. Do not assign the second (strongest) band at 941 Å and consider the third band at 933 Å as n=5, v'=0 of the Rydberg series which starts with C(3pσ) and E(3pπ).

Previously called G [see missing citation]. The present G ¹Π is from Ogawa and Ogawa, 1974.

v=0 diffuse by predissociation, v=1 sharp. The rotational constants are for v=1 Ogawa and Ogawa, 1974.

Jevons, 1932 gives ω_e = 2112 Jevons, 1932, ω_ex_e = 198 Jevons, 1932, presumably from private communication by Hopfield-Birge.

The ν₀₀ values for B→A, C→A, E→A are not deperturbed and, therefore, do not add up with the deperturbed ν₀₀ for A-X (see also 53) to the ν₀₀ values listed for B-X, C-X, and E-X.

Oscillator strength f₀₀ = 0.094 Lassettre and Skerbele, 1971.

Λ-type doubling, Δν = 0.011N(N+1). Triplet splitting unobservably small as for most Rydberg states.

H₀ = -1.9E-7. The rotational constants represent average values for the two Λ-doubling components.

Rotational lines are diffuse because of predissociation.

This state is strongly perturbed by the higher vibrational levels of the a' ³Σ⁺ state (near its dissociation limit). Dieke and Mauchly, 1933 derived B₀ = 1.89 from lines with N values between 7 and 15. Gero, 1935 from deperturbed term values derived B₀ = 2.058 ; Schmid and Gero, 1935, 2 gave α = 0.033 Schmid and Gero, 1935, 2. The listed values of B_e and α_e are from a revised deperturbation by Stepanov, 1940 who also gives the deperturbed constants ΔG(1/2) = 2188 Stepanov, 1940 and τ₀ = 83816 Stepanov, 1940.

Only two vibrational levels, v=0 and 1, have been observed. Breaking off on account of predissociation in v=0 above N=55, in v=1 above N=42 Gero, 1935, Gero, 1936. The absence of v=2 is puzzling since it is expected to lie below the dissociation limit Barrow, Gratzer, et al., 1956.

This interpretation was first suggested by Gero, 1938. It is in agreement with the data of Tilford and Simmons, 1972 on the a'-X system. The occurrence of these particular vibrational levels of a' ³Σ⁺ in the emission spectrum is due to strong interaction with b ³Σ⁺. Indeed, the levels mentioned were observed as "extra" bands accompanying the b ³Σ⁺ → a ³Π (third positive) bands.
