Fig. 6. (Color online) Experimental infrared results for LAB (solid blue line) along with tridecylbenzene data from AIST SDBS (purple dashed line). Despite the differences in intensity, the absorption peak positions are in very good agreement in almost all regions. Also, considering the further reduced strength, it can be inferred that the constituent molecules of the LAB sample should be composed of long chains, not short alkyl chains.
