Extension of the density functional derived scaled quantum mechanical force field procedure

The density functional derived scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force field method of Rauhut and Pulay [J. Phys. Chem. 99 (1995) 3093] has been extended. The original procedure (employing B3-LYP/6-31G* computations and 11 transferable scale factors for the different kinds of internal coordinates) was capable to reproduce the vibrational fundamentals of 31 simple organic (H, C, N, O) molecules with a total mean deviation of about 13 cm(-1). The present Density Functional Theory based SQM force field method is an extension of the original one: with the help of 20 transferable scale factors can reproduce the fundamentals of 20 inorganic, organic and organosilicon molecules containing nonmetallic first and second-row atoms with a total mean deviation of 10.8 cm(-1). The transferability and reliability of the new set of scale factors are demonstrated on the examples of the a priori SQM vibrational spectra of cis and gauche-cyclopropylchlorosilane.     

Vibrational spectra and ab initio analysis of tert-butyl,trimethylsilyl, and trimethylgermyl derivatives of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. I. 3,3-Dimethyl-1,2-bis(tert-butyl)cyclopropene

The geometrical parameters of 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-bis(tert-butyl)cyclopropene were optimised completely at the HF/6-31G* level. The HF/6-31G*//HF/6-31G* force field was calculated and scaled using Pulay's scaling procedure. The set of 17 scale factors (for a 105-dimensional problem) was compiled from the sets obtained previously for 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene and 1-methyl-, 1,2-dimethyl-, and 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. The vibrational problem was solved using the scaled quantum mechanical force field (QMFF) and assignments of the vibrational frequencies of 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-bis(tert-butyl)cyclopropene were considered in comparison with the known assignments of 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene and 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. Assignments of four experimental IR bands of 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-bis(tert-butyl)cyclopropene given in the literature are suggested.     

Theoretical and experimental vibrational spectrum study of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid as monomer and dimer

Theoretical calculations on the molecular geometry and the vibrational spectrum of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid were carried out by the Density Functional Theory (DFT/B3LYP) method. In addition, IR and Raman spectra of the 4-hydroxybenzoic acid in solid phase were newly recorded using them in conjunction the experimental and theoretical data (including SQM calculations), a vibrational analysis of this molecular specie was accomplished and a reassignment of the normal modes corresponding to some spectral bands was proposed. The geometries of monomers and dimers in gas phase were optimized using the DFT B3LYP method with the 6-31G*, D95** and 6-311++G** basis sets. Also, both the vibrational spectra recorded and the results of the theoretical calculations show the presence of one stable conformer for the 4-hydroxybenzoic acid cyclic dimer. The B3LYP/6-31G* method was used to study the structure for cyclic dimer of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and for a complete assignment our results were compared with results of the cyclic dimer of benzoic acid. A scaled quantum mechanical analysis was carried out to yield the best set of harmonic force constants. The formation of the hydrogen bond was investigated in terms of the charge density by the AIM program and by the NBO calculations.

Gas-phase and Ar-matrix SQM scaling factors for various DFT functionals with basis sets including polarization and diffuse functions

Scaling factors for Pulay's scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) scheme have been determined for four different widely used DFT functionals (PBE, B3LYP, B3PW91, and M06-2X) and for two basis sets (6-31++G** and aug-cc-pVTZ) by fitting computed results to 347 fundamental experimental vibrational frequencies of 33 molecules. Measurements in the gas phase and in solid argon matrices were used independently in the fitting procedure in order to provide a simple method of estimating matrix shifts. The accuracy of the new scaling factors is demonstrated on test molecules including hydrogen-bonded systems and molecules containing chlorine and sulfur atoms.     

Density functional theory investigations on the conformational stability and vibrational spectra of the model compound of vitamin K

Becke 3-Lee–Yang–Parr density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) using 6-31G(d) and 6-311G(d) basis sets and the scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) force field method are used to study molecular conformations and vibrational spectra of a model compound of vitamin K (VK). In this molecule, there are six conformers on the torsional potential energy map of the dihedral angles C₈C₁₄C₁₅C₁₆ () and C₇C₈C₁₄C₁₅ (β). It is shown that the VK_1 conformer ( = 237.7° and β = 274.2°) is the most stable form. For this lowest energy conformer, the harmonic force fields calculated by B3LYP/6-311G(d) and B3LYP/6-31G(d) methods are scaled with one scale factor of 0.9623 and a set of different scale factors transferred from the previous studies for the other similar molecules, respectively. The vibrational frequencies, IR intensities, and Raman activities are obtained for the lowest energy conformer. On the basis of B3LYP calculations, the normal mode analysis is performed to assign the vibrational fundamental frequencies according to the potential energy distributions. The computational frequencies are in good agreement with the observed results.

An evaluation of scaling factors for multiparameter scaling procedures based on DFT force fields

An extended database of scaling factors for calculating fundamental frequencies within multiparameter scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force field, and effective scaling frequency factor (ESFF) methods, based on various DFT force fields is reported. Twenty-six density functionals have been examined in conjunction with various Pople's and Dunning's basis sets of VDZ and VTZ quality. The calculations were based on a standard training set of 30 molecules proposed by Baker et al., for which 660 vibrational modes were assigned. Six functionals turned out to be particularly well-suited to the calculations oriented toward determination of scaled frequencies. They are B3LYP, B3PW91, B97, B97-1, B97-2, and O3LYP; they are all capable of providing reasonable scaled frequencies even for the small, 6-31G* basis set (rms <15 cm(-1)). Correlations between the quality of the scaled frequencies and the basis set quality as well as the accuracy of the predicted molecular geometry were investigated. The 6-311+G** basis set turned out to be preferable. In addition, correlation between the rms values in the scaled frequencies and the errors in the predicted geometric parameters was found. Both 11- and 9-parameter scaling frames are compared. It is shown that 9-parameter scaling is preferable in the middle range of the vibrational spectrum (500-2500 cm(-1)), provided it was based on high-quality force fields. Finally, statistical uncertainties of the calculated scaling factors are reported.     

FT-IR, FT-Raman vibrational spectra and molecular structure investigation of 2-chloro-4-methylaniline: A combined experimental and theoretical study

In this work, the experimental and theoretical vibrational spectra of 2-chloro-4-methylaniline (2Cl4MA, C₇H₈NCl) were studied. FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of 2Cl4MA in the liquid phase have been recorded in the region 4000–400 cm⁻¹ and 3500–50 cm⁻¹, respectively. The structural and spectroscopic data of the molecule in the ground state have been calculated by using Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (B3LYP) with the 6-31G(d), 6-31G(d,p), 6-31+G(d,p), 6-31++G(d,p) and 6-311G(d), 6-311G(d,p), 6-311+G(d,p), 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets. The vibrational frequencies have been calculated and scaled values have been compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. The observed and calculated frequencies are found to be in good agreement. The complete assignments were performed on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method. The DFT-B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) calculations have been found more reliable than the ab initio HF/6-311++G(d,p) calculations for the vibrational study of 2Cl4MA. The optimized geometric parameters (bond lengths and bond angles) were compared with experimental values of aniline and p-methylaniline molecules.     

Quantum chemical computational studies on 5-(4-bromophenylamino)-2-methylsulfanylmethyl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester

The optimized molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies, and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) (1)H and (13)C NMR shift values of 5-(4-bromophenylamino)-2-methylsulfanylmethyl-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester have been calculated by using Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (DFT/B3LYP) with 6-31G(d), 6-31G(d,p) and LANL2DZ basis sets. The optimized molecular geometric parameters were presented and compared with the data obtained from X-ray diffraction. In order to fit the calculated harmonic wavenumbers to the experimentally observed ones, scaled quantum mechanics force field (SQM FF) methodology was proceeded. Correlation factors between the experimental and calculated (1)H chemical shift values of the title compound in vacuum and in CHCl(3) solution by using the conductor-like screening continuum solvation model (COSMO) were reported. The calculated results showed that the optimized geometry well reproduces the crystal structure. The theoretical vibrational frequencies and chemical shifts are in very good agreement with the experimental data. In solvent media the energetic behavior of the title compound was also examined by using the B3LYP method with the 6-31G(d) basis set, applying the COSMO model. The obtained results indicated that the total energy of the title compound decreases with increasing polarity of the solvent. Furthermore, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), natural bond orbital (NBO) and frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) of the title compound were performed by the B3LYP/LANL2DZ method, and also thermodynamic parameters for the title compound were calculated at all the HF and B3LYP levels.     

Vibrational spectra and ab initio analysis of tert-butyl, trimethylsilyl, and trimethylgermyl derivatives of 3,3-dimethyl cyclopropene V. 3,3-dimethyl-1-(trimethylgermyl)cyclopropene

3,3-dimethyl-1-(trimethylgermyl)cyclopropene (I) was synthesised using a standard procedure. The IR and Raman spectra of I in the liquid phase were measured. The molecular geometry of I was optimised completely at the HF/6-31G* level. The HF/6-31G*//HF/6-31G* force field was calculated and scaled using the set of scale factors transferred from those determined previously for scaling the theoretical force fields of 3,3-dimethylbutene-1 and 1-methyl-, 1,2-dimethyl-, and 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. The assignments of the observed vibrational bands were performed using the theoretical frequencies calculated from the scaled HF/6-31G*//HF/6-31G* force field and the ab initio values of the IR intensities, Raman cross-sections and depolarisation ratios. The theoretical spectra are given. The completely optimised structural parameters of I and its vibrational frequencies are compared with corresponding data of related molecules.     

Density functional theory studies on tautomeric stability and infrared spectra of 2-chloroadenine

The tautomeric stability and vibrational IR spectrum of 2-chloroadenine were studied using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31G* level. The amino N(9)H tautomer of 2-chloroadenine was predicted to be most stable. A scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force field approach was used to calculate the vibrational frequencies of amino N(9)H form of 2-chloroadenine. The force constant scale factors were transferred from those of purine. The mean deviation between the predicted vibrational frequencies and the observed ones is 8.0 cm(-1). The results made it possible to give complete assignments of the IR spectrum of this molecule.     

Molecular structure and vibrational assignment of 2-,4-,6-methylquinoline by density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations

The molecular geometry, the normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of 2-,4-,6-methylquinoline (2-,4-,6-mq) in the ground state were performed by HF and DFT/B3LYP levels of theory using the 6-31++G(d,p) basis set. Harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies were calculated. The complete assignments were performed on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method by using parallel quantum mechanic solutions program. The general agreements between the observed and calculated frequencies are shown.     

Synthesis, spectroscopic and DFT investigation of dimethyl-2-(5-acetyl-2,2-dimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphinylidene)succinate

Dimethyl-2-(5-acetyl-2,2-dimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphinylidene)succinate has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR. The vibrational wavenumbers, gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) ¹H and ¹³C chemical shift values of title compound in the ground state have been computed with density functional theory method (DFT) and the B3LYP functional. The basis sets used are 6-311G(d,p) and 6-31G(d). The harmonic vibrational wavenumbers have been computed and the scaled values have been compared with the experimental FT-IR spectra. The complete assignments have been performed on basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method. Most of the computed wavenumbers are found to be in good agreement with the observed spectrum.     

Determination and characterization of a transition structure for water–formaldehyde addition

Quantum mechanical calculations of the geometric, energetic, electronic, and vibrational features of a transition structure for gas-phase water–formaldehyde addition (FW1?) are described, and a new transition-structure search algorithm is presented. Basis-set-dependent effects are assessed by comparisons of computed properties obtained from self-consistent field (SCF) molecular orbital (MO) calculations with STO-3G, 4-31G, and 6-31G^** basis sets in the absence of electron correlation. The results obtained suggest that STO-3G-level calculations may be sufficiently reliable for the prediction of the transition structure of FW1? and for the transition structures of related carbonyl addition reactions. Moreover, the calculated activation energy for formation of FW1? from water and formaldehyde (?44 kcal mol^?1) is very similar in all three basis sets. However, the energy of formaldehyde hydration predicted by STO-3G (? ?45 kcal mol^?1) is about three times larger than that predicted by the other two basis sets, with the activation energy for dihydroxymethane dehydration also being too large in STO-3G. Calculated force constants in all three basis sets are generally too large, leading to vibrational frequencies that are also too large. However, uniformly scaled force constants (in internal coordinates) give much better agreement with experimental frequencies, scaled 4-31G force constants being slightly superior to scaled STO-3G force constants.     

The SPASIBA force field for chondroitin sulfate: vibrational analysis of D-glucuronic and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 4-sulfate sodium salts

Normal-mode analyses were carried out on the two components of the chondroitin 4-sulfate linear glycosaminoglycan, a copolymer implying alternate D-glucuronate beta-(1-->3) and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 4-sulfate beta-(1-->4) (hereafter named D-galactosamine 4-sulfate) residues. Scaled quantum mechanical calculations (SQM) using the density functional theory approach at different levels of theory (B3LYP/6-31G** and B3LYP/6-31++G**) were performed to obtain correct vibrational assignments. The SPASIBA empirical force field parameters were then obtained from both theoretical predictions and observed IR and Raman data. It is shown that calculations including diffuse functions at the B3LP/6-31++G** level and the introduction of the Na+ counterion are necessary to give correct assignments of the CO2- symmetric (nu(s)) and antisymmetric (nu(a)) stretching modes for the glucuronic carboxylate residue.     

On the use of empirically corrected theoretical procedures in preparative chemistry: Synthesis,spectroscopic and theoretical studies on 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzimidazol-2-one

The present work demonstrates the utility of the extended DFT-derived scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force fields for predicting the product of a chemical synthesis, namely the reaction of 1,3-dihydrobenzimidazol-2-one with BSTFA [N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoro-acetamid]. Since the reactant has two tautomeric forms, the structure of product of the silylation reaction is not obvious. The calculated force fields of the potentially possible products were determined at the B3-LYP/6-31G* level and scaled by transferable scale factors obtained from the literature. The calculated SQM infrared (IR) spectra were numerically compared with the experimental IR spectrum of the product of the reaction. Several proximity measures (S scalar product, residual R-factor, and the standard RMS) between the calculated and experimental IR spectra have been calculated concluding that the product of the reaction is 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzimidazol-2-one. The NMR spectra of the product gave an independent validation of this result. The presented algorithmic method is able to form a basis for a more automatic procedure, e.g., in the field of the combinatorial syntheses. The S-factor seems to be the most useful proximity measure between a calculated and an experimental spectrum.
