Vibrational spectra and pseudo-exact force constants of [Ni(NH3)6]2+, [Zn(NH3)4]2+, and [Zn(CN)4]2− with 58Ni/62Ni, 64Zn/68Zn and H/D isotopic substitution

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that reasonable force constants for the skeletons of hexammine and tetrammine metal complexes can be calculated from Raman and infrared data of the isotopically substituted ions using the point mass model, if the isotope shifts can be measured accurately.
