Notizen:
The Raman spectrum of tryptophan has been observed in its neutral aqueous solution with 514.5, 488.0, 457.9, 363.8, and 257.3 nm excitation. The effects of N-deuteration and 15N-substitution of the indole ring on the Raman spectrum have been examined. A preliminary normal coordinate treatment of the indole ring has also been made. On the basis of these data, the vibrational mode and a possible origin of the Raman scattering intensity has been discussed for each of the 1623, 1555, 1436, 1344, 1016, 882, and 762 cm-1 Raman lines of tryptophan. The resonance enhanced line at 1623 cm-1 has been assigned to a vibration of the indole ring which is related to the b3g ring stretching vibration of naphthalene at 1636 cm-1. Its intensity is considered to come almost solely from the B̃ ← X̃ (La) electronic transition at 273 nm. It is therefore probable that the geometrical structure of the molecule is distorted along this vibrational coordinate on going from the ground (X̃) to the B̃ electronic excited state.
