Specifically, infrared frequency shifts of the carbonyl band were observed in semi-crystalline PHBHx, but not in a-PHB, because it cannot form the helical conformation required for crystallization. The carbonyl band of PHBHx exhibited the high frequency associated with amorphous structure in chloroform and the lower frequency traditionally attributed to the helical crystalline structure in HFIP. The same results were obtained for a-PHB, demonstrating that the helical structure is not required for a lower frequency carbonyl-stretching mode. It is proposed that the band shift is due to hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl and hydroxyl hydrogen in HFIP. Therefore, the carbonyl frequency observed upon crystallization is most likely due to hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl and methyl hydrogen of the neighboring polymer chain in the crystal lattice as previously suggested.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0003702817702154","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,25]],"date-time":"2017-04-25T12:20:54Z","timestamp":1493122854000},"page":"2339-2343","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Observation of Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding Interactions in Biosynthesized and Biodegradable Poly [(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-\n                    <i>co<\/i>\n                    -(R)-3-hydroxyhexanoate] in Chloroform and 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"71","author":[{"given":"Brian J.","family":"Sobieski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, USA"},{"name":"FXI Inc., Aston, PA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Isao","family":"Noda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, USA"},{"name":"Danimer Scientific., Bainbridge, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John F.","family":"Rabolt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.
