The high-resolution infrared spectra of the lowest fundamental bands nu3 and nu6 of 12CD3I and 13CD3I have been measured using a Fourier transform spectrometer. The bands are analyzed on one hand by taking into account the Coriolis resonance nu3/nu6 and on the other hand without this Coriolis effect. The molecular constants obtained for the two vibration modes are introduced and a discussion of the influence of the Coriolis interaction to the parameter set is shortly outlined.
