Abstract
Structural properties of the cholesteryl acetate have been investigated by Raman spectroscopy. In this work, we present Raman spectroscopy studies of the CO stretching mode for this ester of cholesterol in the crystalline and isotropic liquid phases. Our interpretation of the structural organization is compared with some semi-empirical quantum calculations. A hypothesis is suggested in order to explain the difference between our Raman spectroscopy investigations and the X-ray results.
