Abstract
- Abstract: Five salts of 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (pyromellitic acid), [C6H2(COO)4H4], have been synthesized and investigated by infrared and Raman spectroscopy and by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods: sodium salt [Na2(H2O)2][C6H2(COO)4H2], potassium salt [K(H2O)3][C6H2(COO)4H3] and transition metal salts [M(H2O)6][C6H2(COO)4H2], which M = Mn, Ni and Zn. Crystal structures of all five compounds show short intramolecular asymmetric hydrogen bonds (SHB) between adjacent carboxyl groups with O···O distance average of 2.40Å. The Raman and infrared spectra reported indicate the presence of short hydrogen bonds in all salts, in agreement with the X-ray data. The O–H stretching mode [ν(Oeen observed at about 2500cm−1. Deuterated analogues were synthesized and their Raman spectra show that ν OH/ν OD ratio average is about unit. The symmetric [ν sym(O··H··O)] and asymmetric [ν asym(O··H··O)] stretching modes have been attributed about 300 and 870cm−1, respectively, in all salts, and for deuterated analogues, the ratio ν OH/ν OD to ν sym(O··H··O, O··D··O) is close to unit like it occurs in ν(Oibrational modes, mainly SHB modes, are tentatively assigned by molecular orbital ab initio calculations of pyromellitic acid and anions [C6H2(COO)4H3]− and [C6H2(COO)4H2]2−. Geometry optimizations showed a good agreement with experimental data. Frequency calculation confirms the assignment of specific vibrational modes. Ab initio calculations show that ν(C=O) and ν sym(COO) are strongly coupled with in plane OH bending [δ(OH)]. In Raman spectra of deuterated analogues is observed a frequency shift of these bands.
