Comparison between optimized geometries and vibrational frequencies calculated by the DFT methods for the Anderson-type heteropolyanion: hexamolybdoaluminate(III), [AlIII(OH)6Mo6O18]3-

Optimized geometries and vibrational frequencies were calculated for the hexamolybdoaluminate(III), [AlIII(OH)6Mo6O18]3-, Anderson-type heteropolyanion with the HF, B3LYP, B3PW91, B3P86 and B1LYP methods of theory using the LanL2DZ, SDD and combination of LanL2DZ with 6-31G (d, p) basis sets. The agreement between the optimized and experimental geometries was in the decreasing order: HF, B3P86, B3PW91, B1LYP and B3LYP. The calculated frequencies by the B3LYP have the smallest mean root mean square (RMS) error. The effect of the basis set on the calculated bond lengths and frequencies by the density functional calculations (DFT) methods was minor. The agreement between the previously reported IR and Raman spectra and the calculated values is, in general, good.     

Experimental (FT-IR, FT-Raman, H, C NMR) and theoretical study of alkali metal 2-aminonicotinates

The influence of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and cesium on the electronic system of 2-aminonicotinic acid (2-ANA) was studied by the methods of molecular spectroscopy.

Experimental (13C NMR, 1H NMR, FT-IR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction) and DFT studies on 3,4-bis(isoproylamino)cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione

In this work, 3,4-bis(isoproylamino)cyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione C(10)H(16)N(2)O(2) (I), was synthesized and characterized by (13)C NMR, (1)H NMR, FT-IR, UV-vis spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. DFT method with 6-31G(d,p) basis set has been used to calculate the optimized geometrical parameters, atomic charges, vibrational frequencies and chemical shift values. The calculated vibrational frequencies and chemical shift values are compared with experimental FT-IR and NMR spectra. The results of the calculation shows good agreement between experimental and calculated values of the compound I. The existence of N-H?O type intermolecular ve C-H?O type intramolecular hydrogen bonds can be deduced from differences between experimental and calculated results of FT-IR and NMR. In addition, the molecular electrostatic potential map and frontier molecular orbitals and electronic absorption spectra were performed at B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. HOMO-LUMO electronic transition of 4.90 eV are derived from the contribution of the bands π→π* and n→π* The spectral results obtained from FT-IR, NMR and X-ray of I revealed that the compound I is in predominantly enamine tautomeric form, which was supported by DFT calculations.     

The performance of different density functional methods in the calculation of molecular structures and vibrational spectra of platinum(II) antitumor drugs: cisplatin and carboplatin

A comparison of eight density functional models for predicting the molecular structures, vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities, and Raman scattering activities of platinum(II) antitumor drugs, cisplatin and carboplatin, is reported. Methods examined include the pure density functional protocols (G96LYP, G96PW91, modified mPWPW and original PW91PW91), one‐parameter hybrid approaches (mPW1PW and mPW1LYP), and three‐parameter hybrid models (B3LYP and B3PW91), as well as the HF and MP2 levels of theory. Different effective core potentials (ECPs) and several basis sets are considered. The theoretical results are discussed and compared with the experimental data. It is remarkable that the mPW1PW protocol introduced by Adamo and Barone [J Chem Phys 1998, 108, 664], is clearly superior to all the remaining density functional methods (including B3LYP). The geometry and vibrational frequencies of cisplatin and carboplatin calculated with the mPW1PW method, and the ECP of Hay and Wadt (LanL2DZ basis set) are in better agreement with experiment than those obtained with the MP2 method. The use of more elaborated ECP and the enlargements of basis sets do not significantly improve the results. A clear‐cut assignments of the platinum‐ligand vibrations in cisplatin and carboplatin are presented. It is concluded that mPW1PW is the new reliable method, which can be used in predicting molecular structures and vibrational spectra of large coordination compounds containing platinum(II). © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Fourier transforms infrared spectra and structure of triformylmethane. A density functional theoretical study

Molecular structure and vibrational frequencies of triformylmethane have been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Theoretical calculations show that the hydrogen bond strength of triformylmethane is stronger than that of MA, which is in agreement with spectroscopic results.     

Syntheses and characterization of the MF6- (M = As, Sb) salts of the simple trithietanylium PhCS3+ cation and the identity of PhCS3Cl

MF6- (M = As or Sb) salts of a simple derivative of the trithietanylium PhCSSS+, 1, were synthesized for the first time by the reaction of PhCS3Cl and AgMF6 in liquid SO2. 1SbF6 was characterized by IR, FT-Raman, and NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and a preliminary X-ray crystal structure. 1AsF6 was characterized by 1H NMR and FT-Raman spectroscopy. The calculated (MPW1PW91/3-21G* or 6-31G*) geometries, 1H and 13C chemical shifts (MPW1PW91/6-311G(2DF)//MPW1PW91/3-21G*), and vibrational frequencies and intensities (MPW1PW91/6-31G*) were in satisfactory agreement with the observed values. The calculated pi type molecular orbitals of HCSSS+ (MPW1PW91/6-311+G*) and 1 (MPW1PW91/3-21G*) imply that the 6pi-CSSS+ ring has some aromatic character. 1SbF6 undergoes a metathesis reaction with NBu4Cl in liquid SO2 to give PhCS3Cl, which was characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The evidence indicates that PhCS3Cl has the ionic formulation PhCSSS+ Cl- with significant cation-anion interactions in the solid state. ArCSSS+ SbF6- (Ar = 1-naphthyl), 14SbF6, was prepared from ArCS3Cl and AgSbF6, suggesting that the synthesis of MF6- (M = As or Sb) salts of RCSSS+ is potentially general for aryl derivatives. The structure of 14SbF6 was established by 1H and 13C NMR, IR, and FT-Raman spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations gave values in agreement with the experimental data.     

Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra, vibrational assignment and density functional theory calculations of naphthazarin

FT Raman and FTIR spectra of Naphthazarin (5,8-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone) and its deuterated analogue are recorded. Comparison between the spectra obtained by two techniques, a series of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the spectral behavior upon deuteration were used for the assignment of the vibrational spectra of this compound. The calculated vibrational frequencies by the B3LYP, B3PW91, G96LYP, G96P86, and MPWLYP density functionals are generally consistent with the observed spectra. Infrared and Raman vibrational transitions predicted by B3LYP/6-311++G** are reported for the titled compound and its deuterated analogous and the assignments are discussed. All experimental and theoretical results support a relatively weak hydrogen bond in naphthazarin (NZ), compared with that in the enol form of normal beta-diketones. The observed nuOH/nuOD and gammaOH/gammaOD appear at about 3060/2220 and 790/560 cm(-1), respectively, which are consistent with the calculated hydrogen bond geometry and proton chemical shift results. Two bands at about 350 and 290 cm(-1) are assigned to the O...O stretching modes belong to A1 and B2 species, respectively.

Finally the calculation results were applied to simulate infrared, Raman, and UV spectra of the title compound which show good agreement with observed spectra.
