Abstract
Infrared and Raman spectra were obtained for 2-ethyl-1-butene and infr ared spectra were obtained for 3-pentanone. Normal coordinate calculat ions were made for all three possible conformers of each compound and the resulting vibrational assignments and force constants are given in this paper. Molecular mechanics and low-level ab initio molecular orb ital calculations were also made for all the conformers. The results s upport the existence of three conformers of the alkene and two conform ers of the ketone.
