A detailed interpretation of the Infrared, Raman and NMR spectra of the compound was reported as well. Analysis of experimental NMR chemical shifts was supported by quantum chemical calculations and HOSE code fragment based prediction tool (ACD/NMR). The theoretical results showed an excellent agreement with the experimental values. The physico-chemical properties (such as logP, hydrophobicity, …) were also calculated using three commercially available programs.

Vibrational investigation, molecular orbital studies and molecular electrostatic potential map analysis on 3-chlorobenzoic acid using hybrid computational calculations.

The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of 3-chlorobenzoic acid (3CBA) are recorded in the liquid state. The fundamental vibrational frequencies, intensity of vibrational bands and the optimized geometrical parameters of the compound are evaluated using HF and DFT (LSDA/B3LYP/B3PW91/MPW1PW91) methods with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. The theoretical wave numbers are scaled down and compared with the experimental values which showed very good agreement. Comparison of stimulated spectra with the experimental spectra provides important information about the ability of the hybrid computational method to describe the vibrational modes. The HOMO, LUMO, chemical hardness (η), chemical potential (µ), electrophilicity values (ω) and maximum amount of electronic charge transfer (ΔN(max)) are calculated. The molecular electrostatic potential (MESP) is calculated and the corresponding graphs are drawn. Some thermodynamic parameters and physico-chemical properties are calculated and discussed.

In this work, we will report a combined experimental and theoretical study on molecular and vibrational structure of N,N'-di(p-thiazole)formamidine (DpTF). DpTF has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, FT-Raman, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of DpTF were recorded in the solid phase. The optimized geometry was calculated by HF and B3LYP methods using 6-31G(d) basis set. The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of DpTF was calculated at the HF/B3LYP/6-31G(d) level and were interpreted in terms of potential energy distribution (PED) analysis. The scaled theoretical wavenumber showed very good agreement with the experimental values. A detailed interpretation of the infrared and Raman spectra of DpTF was reported. On the basis of vibrational analyses, the thermodynamic properties of the title compound at different temperatures have been calculated, revealing the correlations between Cp,m°, Sm°, Hm° and temperatures. Furthermore, molecular electrostatic potential maps (MESP) and total dipole moment properties of the compound have been calculated.

X-ray crystallography characterization, vibrational spectroscopy, NMR spectra and quantum chemical DFT/HF study of N,N'-di(2-methoxyphenyl)formamidine.

The title compound, N,N'-di(2-methoxyphenyl)formamidine (DMPF) was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, FT-Raman, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The results show that the compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic system, with space group of Pbca and eight molecules in the unit cell. The unit cell parameters are: a=11.1118 (7)A, b=14.9878 (9)A and c=16.2851 (10)A. The molecular geometry, the normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of DMPF at the ground state were performed by HF and B3LYP methods with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. It was observed that the bond lengths and angles in the molecule, obtained by X-ray at the level of theory, were in good agreement with those of the experiment. A detailed interpretation of the infrared and Raman spectra of DMPF was reported. The (13)C NMR and (1)H NMR of DMPF have been calculated using HF and B3LYP methods with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. Comparison between experimental and theoretical results showed that B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) method is able to provide more satisfactory results for predicting IR, Raman, (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR properties.
