Popis: | An ir-absorption and Raman-scattering study, in the solid state, has been carried out on monodispersed, N- and C-protected homooligopeptides (number of residues, n, from 2 to 7) of L-valine, L-isoleucine, and L-phenylalanine. The amide I, II, III, V, and vNH regions have been examined. Some deuterated (ND) samples have been examined to complete the assignments. L-Phenylalanine dipeptide displays spectral characteristics compatible with the parallel β-structure; L-isoleucine and L-valine dipeptides are probably in a distorted structure. A mixture of parallel and antiparallel extended chains cannot be excluded for the peptides with n = 3. In the amide I region the spectra of peptides with n ≥ 4 show the existence of the β-conformation. The problem of chain orientation within the pleated-sheet structure is discussed on the basis of a recent theoretical treatment of vibrational interactions of the amide I mode. |
