Isotope Effects in the Infra-red Spectrum of l-13C-Propene-l

An Erratum to this article was published on 30 June 1962

Abstract

THE abundance and location of isotopically labelled carbon atoms have been investigated by numerous techniques, but no use has been reported of vibrational spectra for this purpose. This communication describes how the infra-red spectrum of a sample of propene prepared with carbon-13 is consistent with all the labelled isotope being in the 1-position.
