Abstract
C≡N and C-D stretches complicates the spectral response but does not prevent its effective utilization. Time-resolved two-dimensional (2D) IR spectroscopy can be performed on a mixture of acetonitrile isotopologues and much can be learned about the structural dynamics of various species in these formulations.
