Harmonic Dynamics of a-D-Lactose in the Crystalline State

In recent years, certain advances have been made in developing software for modeling IR spectra of compounds with the use of the structure-property database. In this work, the object under study is lactose; this latter occupies a position in sugar metabolic bio processus. To study the chemical structures and physical properties of this kind of carbohydrates, various methods including vibrational spectroscopy have been used  for which a full and reliable interpretation of the observed spectra requires a theoretical analysis.

D-Lactose in the Crystalline State



In this field, a number of theoretical works have been devoted to the calculation of normal modes of vibrations of monosacharides like fucose, fructose or methyl-galactopyranoside[2and disaccharides like turanose and melibiose. To complete the series of papers dealing with normal mode analyses of disaccharides in their crystalline environment, we have chosen to study a lactose molecule, the last is constituted by aα-(D)glucopyranose linked to β-(D) galactopyranose units. Besides vibrational data reproduction, theoretical calculations also provide an approach to the bands assignments. Read more>>>>>>>>>>>
