TY - JOUR AU - Miyazawa, Tatsuo AB - The Raman spectra of the liquid, unannealed solid and annealed solid, and the infrared spectra of the gas, liquid, and annealed solid of ethyl methyl sulfide were measured. Normal vibrations were treated of the trans and gauche isomers. C–S stretching, CH2 rocking and skeletal deformation vibrations were discussed in relation with molecular structures. Only the gauche isomer was found to exist in the annealed solid. In the liquid state, the gauche isomer was found to be more stable, by 0.14±0.05 kcal/mol, than the trans isomer. The vibrational assignment made of ethyl methyl sulfide is consistent with those of related sulfides and disulfides.
