Vibrational Spectroscopic Investigation and Conformational Analysis of Methacrylamidoantipyrine : A Comparative Density Functional Study

الملخص EN

FT-IR and Raman spectra of methacrylamidoantipyrine (MAAP) have been reported in the region of 4000–10 cm−1 and 4000–100 cm−1, respectively.

The optimized geometric parameters, conformational analysis, normal mode frequencies, and corresponding vibrational assignments of MAAP (C15H17N3O2) have been examined by means of density functional theory (DFT) method using the Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) exchange-correlation functional and the 6-31G++(d,p) basis sets.

Vibrational assignments have been made on the basis of potential energy distribution (PED) and the thermodynamics functions, and the highest occupied and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) of MAAP have been predicted.

Calculations are carried out with the possible seven (amide-1–5 and imide-1-2) conformational isomers of MAAP.

Comparison between the experimental and theoretical results indicates that the B3LYP method provides satisfactory evidence for the prediction of vibrational wavenumbers, and the amide-1 conformational isomer is supposed to be the most stable form of MAAP.
