HIGH RESOLUTION INFRARED SPECTRUM OF THE $\nu_{8} (E')$ BAND OF CYCLOPROPANE-$D_{6}{^{*}}$

$^{*}$Research supported by the Planetary Atmospheres program of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration under Grant NGL-43-001-006.Author Institution:The $\nu_{8} (E^{\prime})$ perpendicular band of $C_{3}D_{6}$ has been recorded with a resolution of 0.018 - $0.024 cm^{-1}$ on the University of Tennessee five meter Littrow spectrometer. The subband Q branches are gathered closely together near the band center ($2209 cm^{-1})$ and their identification is not possible. However, the $R_{R}$ and $P_{P}$ transitions to either side of the band center are well resolved. The current state of the assignment and analysis will be reported
