Abstract
The Raman and infrared spectra of methyl transβcinnamate were measured as a function of temperature in the liquid and solid phases. The temperature dependence of the band intensities established the presence of two conformers in the liquid phase (the sβcis and sβtrans forms, with Cο£ΎCο£ΏCο£ΎO dihedral angles equal to 0Β° and 180Β°, respectively; Ξ__H__~(sβtrans)β(sβcis)~ = 3.43 Β± 0.84 kJ mol^β1^) and led to the conclusion that the thermodynamically most stable sβcis form is the only form present in the solid.
