Abstract: | Ab initio calculations, FT-IR and X-ray crystal analysis, indicated that the most stable configuration of 3-oxo-2-(phenylhydrazono)-3-(thien-2-yl)-propionitrile is the anti phenylhydrazone structure 1. Stability of such a conformation, over the possible E-form, 2, that would be stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding, is due to interaction between electron-pair domains of the N, S and O atoms. However, the simulated and experimental IR frequency data indicated intermolecular hydrogen bonding between NH and CN, the latter being lowered to 2214 cm(-1). Studies on 3-oxo-3-phenyl-2-(phenylhydrazono)-propionitrile showed the same result, as well as, another intramolecular hydrogen association of the type N-H...O. This was clearly indicated by the absorbance of the carbonyl stretch at 1605 cm(-1). These data indicated the existence of a bifurcated hydrogen bond in 1a and a single intermolecular association in 1b. |
