Raman and infrared spectra of polycrystalline cyanogen, C 2 N 2 , at 20 K are reported. Multiplet structure of the intramolecular fundamentals is observed and interpreted in terms of a group theoretical analysis based on the known orthorhombic crystal structure. Seven of the eight predicted librational and five of the predicted six translational modes are observed in the low‐frequency regions of the Raman and infrared spectra, respectively.
