title: Raman studies of the C-H and C-D stretching regions in stearic acid and some specifically deuterated derivatives.
abstract: Raman spectra of polycrystalline stearic acid-do, stearic acid-d35, 16:16-d2-18:18:18-d3-stearic acid, 18:18:18-d3-stearic acid, 17:17-d2-stearic acid, 17-d1-stearic acid, 16:16-d2-stearic acid, 12:12-d2-stearic acid and 12-d1-stearic acid have been obtained for the region containing the C-D and C-H stretching vibrations. Assignments of the methyl, methyl-d3, methylene, methylene-d2 and methylene-d1 stretching vibrations are discussed.
