Molecular Symmetry
All molecules can be described in terms of their symmetry
Symmetry operation Reflection, rotation, or inversion
Symmetry elements such as mirror, axes of rotation, and inversion centers
There are two naming systems commonly used when describing symmetry elements:
1. The Schoenflies notation used extensively by spectroscopists
2. The Hermann-Mauguin or international notation
preferred by crystallographersSymmetry elementsSymmetry element Notation

1. Identity (C1 ≡ E or 1) Rotasi dengan sudut putar
360° melalui sudut z sehingga molekul kembali seperti posisi semula.
Putaran seperti ini diberi simbol dengan C1 axis atau 1.
Schoenflies: C1 Hermann-Mauguin: 1 for
1-fold rotation Operation: act of rotating
molecule through 360° Element: axis of
symmetry (i.e. the rotation axis).
2. Rotation (Cn or n) Rotasi melalui sudut
selain 360°. Operation: act of
rotation Element: rotation
axis Symbol untuk
symmetry element yang mana rotasinya adalah rotasi dari 360°/n
Schoenflies: Cn Hermann–Mauguin: n.
Molekul mempunyai n-fold axis dari symmetry.

Objects with symmetry:
5-fold and > 6-fold rotations will not work in combination with translations in crystals (as we shall see later). Thus we will exclude them now.
Example:
3. Inversion (i)
inversion through a center to reproduce a motif in a symmetrical pattern
Operation: inversion through this point Element: point
= symbol for an inversion center

Example:
4. Reflection (σ or m)Reflection across a “mirror plane” reproduces a motif
Mirror reflection through a plane. Operation: act of reflection Element: mirror plane
= symbol for a mirror plane
σh σdσvσh
σd
Schoenflies notation: Horizontal mirror plane ( σh): plane
perpendicular to the principal rotation axis Vertical mirror plane ( σv): plane
includes principal rotation axisDiagonal mirror plane ( σd): σd
includes the principle rotation axis, but lies between C2 axes that are
perpendicular to the principle axis
Note inversion (i) and C2 are not equivalent
5. Axes of rotary inversion (improper rotation Sn or n)An improper rotation involves a combination of rotation
and reflectionThe operation is a combination of rotation by 360°/n (Cn) followed by reflection in a plane normal ( σh) to the Sn axis
Molecule does not need to have either a Cn or a σh symmetry element
Combinations of symmetry elements are also possible
To create a complete analysis of symmetry about a point in space, we must try all possible combinations of these symmetry elements
In the interest of clarity and ease of illustration, we continue to consider only 2-D examples
Try combining a 2-fold rotation axis with a mirror
Try combining a 2-fold rotation axis with a mirror
Step 1: reflect

Try combining a 2-fold rotation axis with a mirror

Step 2: rotate (everything)
No! A second mirror is required
Try combining a 2-fold rotation axis with a mirror

“2mm” indicates 2 mirrors

Point group name??
3-fold rotation axis with a mirror creates point group 3m
6-fold rotation axis with a mirror creates point group 6mm
Point groups
Most molecules will possess more than one symmetry element.
All molecules characterised by 32 different combinations of symmetry elements:
POINT GROUPS
There are symbols for each of the possible point groups
These symbols are often used to describe the symmetry of a molecule
For example: rather than saying water is bent, you can say that water has C2v point symmetry
The groups C1, Ci and Cs
C1: no element other than the identityCi: identity and inversion aloneCs:identity and a mirror plane alone
THE GROUPS
The groups Cn, Cnv and Cnh
Cn: n-fold rotation axisCnv: identity, Cn axis plus n vertical mirror planes σvCnh: identity and an n-fold rotation principal axis plus a horizontal mirror plane σh
The groups Dn, Dnh and Dnd
Dn: n-fold principal axis and n two-fold axes perpendicular to Cn
Dnh: molecule also possesses a horizontal mirror planeDnd: in addition to the elements of Dn possesses n dihedralmirror planes σd
The groups Sn
Sn: Molecules not already classified possessing one Sn axisMolecules belonging to Sn with n > 4 are rareS2 ≡ Ci The cubic groups
Td and Oh: groups of the regular tetrahedron (e.g. CH4) andregular octahedron (e.g. SF6), respectively.T or O: object possesses the rotational symmetry of thetetrahedron or the octahedron, but none of their planes ofreflectionTh: based on T but also contains a centre of inversion
The full rotation groupR3: consists of an infinite number of rotation axes with allpossible values of n. A sphere and an atom belong to R3,but no molecule does.
Examples:
Memiliki Cn yaitu C3
Tegak lurus dengan sumbu C2 ’ masuk grup D
Mempunyai σh mencerminkan F atas dan F bawah
