Popis: Raman and infrared spectra were recorded for crystalline deoxycytidine samples at 300, 200, 100 and 10 K. Data were taken over the spectral range 20–4000 cm−1. The wavenumbers of most vibrational modes were found to increase as the temperature was lowered. A number of peaks split into multiplets at low temperature. A new mode, observed at 375 cm−1, is a marker band for 2′-deoxyribose in cytosine-containing nucleic acids. Evidence is presented supporting the assignment of marker bands associated with the C3′-endo and C2′-endo puckers of deoxyribose. No clear indication was found of any structural phase transitions in this temperature range. Several hydrogen-stretching modes were found to involve hydrogen bonding. Plausible assignments of all the main features observed are suggested. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
