Tóm tắt

AbstractInfrared spectra of highly oriented crystalline films of methyl stearate and methyl 1‐octadecyl sulfonate have been obtained using polarized radiation with the electric vector parallel and at 45Ŷ to crystallographic axes. The anisotropy of methyl stearate is in good agreement with the known structure and with vibrational assignments. The results obtained on the methyl ester of octadecyl sulfonic acid suggest a crystallographic plane (or glide plane) of symmetry. The hydrocarbon chains are tilted with respect to the end‐group planes. The zigzag planes are roughly parallel to each other and perpendicular to theac plane. Qualitative conclusions are drawn regarding the packing of the polar end‐groups. Vibrational assignments are proposed for most prominent absorption bands.
