Raman optical activity (ROA) is pursued as a promising method for structural analyses of sugars in aqueous solutions. In the present study, experimental Raman and ROA spectra of glucose and sorbose obtained in an extended range (50–4000 cm−1) are interpreted using molecular dynamics and density func...
