IR Spectroscopy: Identification of Specific Thiol Group?

Question

I know the range of a normal sulfide is in the 400-1000 range and is a small peak, often overpowered by other noise in the fingerprint region. I was curious, however, if this sulfide (link below) would show any different type of peak? It is more of a sulfide bridge and wasn't curious how that would show up on a spectra. (it is in an alpha conformation)

Answer 1

If you're in a university setting your science (or chemistry) library probably has a copy of the Aldrich handbook of IR and NMR spectra. That specific molecule may actually be in there. Personally I would not hold my breath to see any kind of C-S single bond in IR. A C=S would show up strongly and be pretty distinguishable from C=O, but C-S, good luck.
