Symmetry &

Teory Group

OlehYateman Arryanto

The concept of symmetry is exist in an everyday sense.

If we say something is ‘symmetrical’, we usually mean it has mirror symmetry, or ‘left-right’ symmetry, and would look the same if viewed in a mirror.

Symmetry is also very important in chemistry.

Some molecules are clearly ‘more symmetrical’ than others, but what consequences does this have, if any?

Symmetry & Teory Group

The aim of this course is to provide a systematic treatment of symmetry in chemical systems within the mathematical framework known as group theory

Symmetry & Teory Group

The aim of applications of group theory are : Predicting whether a given molecule will

be chiral, or polar. Examining chemical bonding and

visualising molecular orbitals Chemical Properties

Predicting whether a molecule may absorb light, and which spectroscopic transitions occurs.

Investigating the vibrational motions of the molecule.

Symmetry Symmetry is the notion that

an object of study may look the same from different points of view.

Figure 1 : Bilateral and rotational symmetry. From: [8].

What is symmetry? An object displays symmetry if

you can “do something to it” (rotate it, reflect it, invert it etc.) without changing its appearance

The process of doing the rotation, reflection etc. Is referred to as a SYMMETRY OPERATION if it does not

change the appearance of the molecule

Symmetry elements

Symmetry element is the line about which a rotation occurs or the plane through which a reflection takes place etc,

Symmetry elements are labeled based on : Rotation axis, Cn ( The n indicates the

angle through which the rotation takes place. (Angle = 360/n )

Mirror plane, σh, σv, σd ( h=horizontal, v=vertical or d=dihedral mirror indicate orientation of plane with respect to any rotation axes )

Symmetry elements

Inversion center, i

Improper rotation axis, Sn (This involves a combination of rotation and reflection. The n indicates the angle through which the rotation takes place. Angle = 360/n

Identity, E (E is always a symmetry element as doing nothing to an object, always the same

Mirror planes

σv includes the principle rotation axis

σvσv

v = vertical

σh is perpendicular to the principle rotation axis

Mirror planes

h = horizontal

σd includes the principle rotation axis, but lies between C2 axes that are perpendicular to the principle axis
