[reaction: see text] The time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectra of chlorophenylcarbene (CPC) and fluorophenylcarbene (FPC) were recorded in heptane at ambient temperature. The C[bond]C and C[bond]F vibrational frequencies involving the carbene carbon were obtained in heptane, benzene, and acetonitrile and in heptane containing 0.1M tetrahydrofuran or benzene. It is concluded that carbene-solvent interactions of CPC and FPC are quite weak.
