S-(+)-carvone (5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one) is the primary component in the oil of caraway. Different experimental and theoretical works reveal that there are two possible conformers in which the isopropenyl group can be in equatorial or axial position. For each one, three rotamers were found theoretically, with the equatorial rotamers around 95% of the whole statistical population. In the current work, from a complete assignment of the IR and Raman spectra and the results obtained from the study of the VCD spectrum of the title compound, the three most stable rotamers have been detected experimentally in the liquid phase for the first time. The present work reveals that IR, Raman and VCD are helpful complementary techniques to characterize flexible systems, as terpenes, which present several conformers.
