Low-Frequency Raman Spectra of Even α,ο-Disubstituted n-Alkanes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/j100346a024

Low-frequency Raman spectra of even α,ο-disubstituted n-alkanes have been recorded.The major features in the spectra arise from whole-chain longitudinal and bending vibrations.The effects of end group, chain lenght, and temperature on the frequencies of these vibrations are described, and the frequencies of the longitudinal vibrations are interpreted in terms of the chain model of Minoni and Zerbi.
