Abstract: Fourier-transform (FT)-Raman and FT-infrared spectrum of 4-(3-bromopropyl)-4-azatricyclo [5.2.2.02,6]undecane-3,5,8-trione were recorded and analyzed. The vibrational wavenumbers were examined theoretically using the Gaussian03 set of quantum chemistry codes, and the normal modes were assigned by potential energy distribution (PED) calculations. The first hyperpolarizability, predicted infrared intensities and Raman activities are reported. The calculated first hyperpolarizability is comparable with reported values of similar structures which makes this compound an attractive object for future studies of nonlinear optics. The calculated first hyperpolarizability was found to be very high and it is due to the π-electron cloud movement from donor to acceptor which makes the molecule highly polarized and the intermolecular charge transfer interaction which is justified by the FT-IR spectrum due to the presence of strong broad bands in the region 2873–2000cm−1. Optimized geometrical parameters of the compound are in agreement with similar reported structures. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

A substituted amide of pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid was prepared and the IR spectrum was recorded and analysed. The compound prepared was identified by NMR and mass spectra. The vibrational frequencies of the title compound were computed using the Hartree-Fock level of theory using the 6-31G* basis set and compared with the experimental data. The red shift of the NH stretching frequency indicates weakening of the NH bond. The splitting of the NH stretching bond is due to Davidov coupling between neighbouring units. The first hyperpolarizability, infrared intensities, and Raman activities are reported. Methyl substitution affects all the carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bond lengths of the pyrazine ring of the title compound in comparison with the corresponding bonds of pyrazine. An increase in conjugation enhances the infrared intensity of the carbonyl stretching vibration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

IR and Raman spectra of melamine diborate have been recorded and analysed. Band assignments are given based on the vibrations of melamine and boric acid molecules. Three sets of frequencies observed for the N&z.sbnd;H stretching mode region is ascribed to different types of hydrogen bonds in the amino groups of the triazine ring. Due to the lower symmetry of the melamine and boric acid molecules in the crystal, activation of inactive modes and lifting of the degeneracy of certain vibrational modes are observed. Lower symmetry of the melamine molecule in the crystal has resulted in the decrease of intensity of the Raman active melamine band around 1490 cm−1. All the internal modes of boric acid molecule were identified. All the ring breathing modes of melamine molecule show frequency shift towards the high wavenumber side. In other words, hydrogen bonding affects the ring breathing modes of melamine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Raman and FTIR spectra of guanidinium zinc sulphate [C(NH2)3]2Zn(SO4)2 are recorded and the spectral bands assignment is carried out in terms of the fundamental modes of vibration of the guanidinium cations and sulphate anions. The analysis of the spectrum reveals distorted SO4 2− tetrahedra with distinct S–O bonds. The distortion of the sulphate tetrahedra is attributed to Zn–O–S–O–Zn bridging in the structure as well as hydrogen bonding. The CN3 group is planar which is expressed in the twofold symmetry along the C–N (1) vector. Spectral studies also reveal the presence of hydrogen bonds in the sample. The vibrational frequencies of [C(NH2)3]2 and HC(NH2)3 are computed using Gaussian 03 with HF/6-31G* as basis set. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

We report the preparation and results of vibrational spectral analysis, which were obtained using both FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopy, for three 1-alkyl-1-methylpiperazine-1,4-diium salts (AMPSs), where alkyl is benzyl 4a , n -octadecyl 4b , and methyl 4c , respectively. These were prepared by multistep synthesis from piperazine. The acid–base study of AMPSs was performed and corresponding acid–base constants were obtained. Single crystals of AMPSs suitable for XRD-analysis were obtained and analyzed. The complete vibrational assignments of wavenumbers were made on the basis of a potential energy distribution. The HOMO and LUMO analysis was used to determine the charge transfer within the molecules. The calculated first hyperpolarizabilities of AMPSs 4a–4c are 48.34, 57.77 and 123.41 times that of urea. As can be seen from the MEP plots, the negative electrostatic potential regions are mainly localized over the chlorine and oxygen atoms for compounds 4a and 4b and chlorine and iodine atoms of compound 4c , and are possible sites for electrophilic attack.

Abstract: FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of ASnFe(PO4)3 [A=Na2, Ca, Cd] were recorded and analyzed. The bands were assigned in terms of the vibrational group frequencies of SnO6 octahedral and PO4 tetrahedral. The spectral analysis shows that the symmetry of corner shared octahedral (SnO6) and the tetrahedral (PO4) are lowered from their free ion symmetry state. The presence of Fe3+ ions disrupts the S–N–O–S–N chain in the structure. This causes distortion of SnO6 and PO4 in the structure of all the compounds. Also it is seen that there are two distinct PO4 tetrahedra of different P–O bond lengths. One of these tetrahedra is linearly distorted in all the title compounds. The PO4 frequencies and bond lengths are calculated theoretically and are in agreement with the experimental values. The presence of PO4 polyanion in the structure can reduce the redox energy and hence reduce the metal oxygen covalency strength in the structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

FT-IR, FT-Raman and FT-SERS spectra of 4-aminosalicylic acid sodium salt dihydrate (4ASAS) have been recorded and analysed. The vibrational bands due to NH2, OH, carboxyl group, and the benzene ring are identified. The CX ipb(17a, 17b), CC ipb(6,18a) and CH ipb (3,14a, 14b) bands are more enhanced in SERS. Broadening of the inplane carboxyl bend indicates interaction with the silver surface. Further the vC=O, v(C-O)c and v(C-O)h are intense in the SERS spectrum. The rocking and wagging modes of NH2 also show up in SERS. The molecule (O, N donor ligand) is thought to adsorb through the carboxyl oxygen atom with the benzene ring in a 'perpendicular side on orientation' with respect to the silver surface.
