Quantum-chemical calculations of the structure,vibrational spectra,and torsional and inversion potentials of methylcarbamate

We present results of ab initio and DFT calculations of the structure, potential functions of the methyl group internal rotation and the amino group inversion, and vibrational frequencies and intensities in IR and Raman spectra of methylcarbamate. The calculations were carried out using different basis sets in the HF, MP2, and DFT/B3LYP approximations. The influence of both the basis set size and the allowance for electronic correlation on peculiarities of the structure of the amino group in methylcarbamate has been analyzed. It is shown that the B3LYP/6-311++G(2d, p) and B3LYP/cc-pVDZ calculations reproduce highly accurately experimental geometric parameters of methylcarbamate. Parameters of torsional and inversion potentials and characteristics of vibrational spectra calculated in different approximations show satisfactory agreement with experimental values.

Conformational stability and vibrational study of phenylacetyl chloride

The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Fourier transform Raman spectra of phenylacetyl chloride were recorded and analyzed in the range 3500–400 and 3500–200 cm^?1 at room temperature, respectively. In order to obtain the structural information and conformational stabilities, a potential energy surface scan for internal rotation was carried out at the B3LYP/6‐31G(d) level. The potential energy surface reveals that the title compound has two minimal conformers (A and B). The optimized geometries, structural parameters, stabilities, energies, thermodynamic parameters, vibrational wavenumbers, infrared intensities, and Raman activities for the two conformers (A and B) have been obtained by employing B3LYP and MP2 calculations with 6‐311++G (d, p) basis sets. The conformational energy difference between A and B is very small, indicating that the B conformer coexists with the A conformer. The detailed vibrational assignments of vibrational spectra of each conformer have been made on the basis of the potential energy distributions analysis. The highest occupied molecular orbital –lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy gap and molecular electrostatic potential of the two conformers have been also calculated for comparison of their chemical activities.

Density functional study of the molecular structures,infrared and Raman spectra of carbon suboxide,its sulfur and selenium analogues

Carbon suboxide, and its sulfur and selenium analogues in D _∞h symmetry have been studied in the gas phase by a density functional method using B3LYP as the functional. The basis sets employed are 6-31++G(d,p), 6-311++G(d,p), cc-pVDZ and all calculations have been carried out using Gaussian 03W. Molecular parameters, namely bond lengths, rotational constants, quadrupole moments, and infrared and Raman frequencies are predicted for these molecules. Atomization energies have also been predicted. The calculated molecular parameters and vibrational spectra of the parent molecule, namely carbon suboxide, are in good agreement with literature data. Therefore, data from the present theoretical gas phase study are expected to be valid for the molecular structures and vibrational spectra of carbon subsulfide and carbon subselenide. The results from this study could be used as a reference for these molecules.

Synthesis, crystallographic characterisation, spectroscopic (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy [FT-IR]) and density functional modelling studies of the Schiff base 1-[(4-ethoxyphenylimino)methyl]napthalene-2-ol (C₁₉H₁₇NO₂) have been reported. The molecular structure obtained from X-ray single-crystal analysis of the investigated compound in the ground state has been compared using Hartree–Fock and density functional theory (DFT) with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. In addition to the optimised geometrical structures, atomic charges, molecular electrostatic potential, natural bond orbital, non-linear optical (NLO) effects and thermodynamic properties of the compound have been investigated by using DFT.

ABSTRACT

In this work, we have recorded the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Ultra-Violet Visible (UV–Vis) spectra of 3,3,6,6-Tetramethyl-9-(4-Methoxyphenyl)3,4,6,7,9,10 hexahydroacridine-1,8-dione (C₂₄H₂₉NO₃) in the spectral range 4000–400?cm^?1 and 190–1400?nm, respectively. The thermo gravimetric (TG) analysis of the compound has been performed to check the thermal stability of the compound. The molecular geometry and complete vibrational spectra in the ground state are calculated by Hartree Fock (HF) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) using6-311G(d,p) basis set. The calculated vibrational harmonic frequencies are scaled using a proper scale factor, yielding a good agreement with the experimental data. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions, charge delocalisation has been studied using natural bond orbital analysis (NBO). Mulliken charges, MEP mapping and temperature dependence on the thermodynamic properties in the optimised ground state have been calculated. UV–Visible spectrum of the molecule was calculated by using TD-DFT approach and the results were compared with the experimental one. We have calculated the several molecular parameters like ionisation potential, electron affinity, global hardness, electron chemical potential, electronegativity and global electrophilicity based on HOMO and LUMO energy values calculated at B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The calculated optimised structural parameters and vibrational wavenumbers are found to be in good agreement with the experimental results.

ABSTRACT

Optimized geometrical structure and harmonic vibration frequencies of prior synthesized (E)-3-phenyl-N-[4-(phenyl-amino) quinazoline-7-yl] acrylamide were computed by ab initio HF and DFT/B3LYP methods using both 6-31G* and 6-311G** basis sets and the Moller–Plesset second-order perturbation (MP2) method merely at the 6-31G* level. The infrared (IR) spectrum of the title compound has been measured in the range of 400–4000 cm^?1. Complete vibrational assignments of the IR spectra were proposed. Moreover, the calculated wavenumbers of the title compound were compared with the experimental data. The correlation analyses indicate that good linearity relationships exist between the scaled theoretical vibration frequencies and the experimental values. Additionally, the atoms in molecules (AIM) method was applied to explore the possible intramolecular interactions in the title compound.     

The Use of Raman Spectroscopy and Methods of Quantum Chemistry for Assessing the Relative Concentration of Triglycerides of Oleic and Linoleic Acids in a Mixture of Olive Oil and Sunflower Seed Oil

The Raman spectra of five samples of sunflower seed oil and five samples of cold-pressed olive oil of various brands are recorded in the range of 500–2000 cm^–1. Within the framework of the B3LYP/6-31G(d)/6-31G(d,p)/6-31+G(d,p)/6-311G(d)/6-311G(d, p)/6-311+G(d,p) methods, the structural models of eight fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, palmitic, stearic, α-linolenic, arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic) are constructed, and also within the framework of the B3LYP/6-31G(d) method, the structural models of triglycerides of the first four of the above acids are obtained. The vibrational wavenumbers and intensities in the IR and Raman spectra are calculated. The Raman spectra of olive oil and sunflower seed oil were simulated by using the supermolecular approach. We investigated the dependence of the relative intensity of the vibrational bands ν_exp = 1660 and 1445 cm^–1 on the concentration of triglycerides in oils of oleic and linoleic acids and the dependence of the intensity of these bands on the degree of saturation of fatty acids. Experimental and empirical dependences are constructed to estimate the relative concentration of triglycerides of oleic and linoleic acids in a mixture of olive oil and sunflower seed oil. The applicability of the density functional theory together with the vibrational spectroscopy for the identification of mixtures of vegetable oils is discussed.
