Spectra of acetylene-carbonyl sulphide trimers in the region of the OCS νb{1} fundamental (˜2062 wn) are observed using a tunable diode laser to probe a pulsed supersonic slit jet expansion. A previous microwave study of (OCS)_2- C_2H_2 by Peebles and Kuczkowski. gave a nonplanar triangular twisted structure, which could be thought of as a polar OCS dimer plus a C_2H_2 monomer lying above the dimer plane. In the present work, three infrared bands are analyzed. The first band clearly belongs to this previously known (OCS)_2-C_2H_2 complex. The second band can be assigned as an isomer of (OCS)_2-C_2H_2 having a similar structure, but with a nonpolar OCS dimer plus a C_2H_2 monomer above the dimer plane. The third band is assigned to OCS-(C_2H_2)_2. The rotational constants and dipole moment components of all three bands are consistent with barrel shape structures having C_1, C_2 and C_s symmetries, respectively.
