β¦ Synopsis
Raman spectra of n-hexadecynoic fatty acids, CH3(CH2)m-2C ~-C(CH2), _2COOH (with n = 4,6,7, 8 and 12, m + n = 16) and their potassium salts were recorded and assigned. The skeletal optical mode (SOM) regions were analysed on using the dispersion curve of the ~'4 (stretch) vibrations of saturated fatty acids. The Iocalised vibrations of the carboxyl-and methyl-terminated sections of the hydrocarbon chains were assigned to the phase ditierences 8 = kzr/m and k~r/n (k = 1, 2 .... ), respectively. Evidence for a ~'4 vibration with 6 = ~r/2m was found. The materials were found to be resistant to chemical decomposition under laser illumination.
