Computer simulation of the statistical correlation between rotation and translation in 3-methylcyclohexanone
Abstract
Computer simulation is used to investigate rotation/translation coupling in the (+) enantiomer and racemic mixture of 3-methylcyclohexanone. A rough model of the intermolecular pair potential suffices to corroborate recent spectral results on the nature of the liquid-state molecular dynamics of 3-methylcyclohexanone.
