Results of the inelastic incoherent neutron scattering (IINS) study on
normal and N-deuterated L-and DL-valine at pulsed reactor IBR-2 are r
eported. L-Valine spectra show additional bands as compared with DL-va
line due to the difference in the respective molecular conformation. B
oth in L- and DL-valine, lines corresponding to out-of-plane gamma(N-H
...O) hydrogen bond vibrations are observed at 279, 505, 513 cm-1 and
276, 559, 592 cm-1, respectively.
