Abstract A series of Hofmann-type complexes containing two nicotinamide(nia) molecules attached to transition metal (II) (M) tetracyanonickelate frame with the formula: M(nia) 2 Ni(CN) 4 (where M=Mn, Co, Ni, Cu or Cd) have been synthesised for the first time. Metal (II) halide complexes of nicotinamide complexes of the type [M(nia) 2 X 2 (M=Cd, Ni, Cu, Hg; X=Cl, Br) and Ni(nia) 4 Br 2 nia=nicotinamide] have also synthesised. The FTIR spectra are reported in the 4000–400 cm −1 region. Vibrational assignments are given for all the observed bands. The analysis of the vibrational spectra indicates that there are some structure–spectra correlations. A pronounced change was observed in the N–H stretching frequencies of the NH 2 group. It is proposed that the amide NH 2 group influence by the intramolecular hydrogen bond in the complexes. The coordination effect on the nicotinamide modes is analysed.

In this work, the experimental and theoretical UV, NMR, and vibrational features of nicotinic acid N-oxide (abbreviated as NANO, C(6)H(5)NO(3)) were studied. The ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectrum of studied compound that dissolved in water was examined in the range of 200-800nm. FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra in solid state were observed in the region 4000-400cm(-1) and 3500-50cm(-1), respectively. The (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra in DMSO were recorded. The geometrical parameters, energies and the spectroscopic properties of NANO were obtained for all four conformers from density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set calculations. There are four conformers, C(n), n=1-4 for this molecule. The computational results identified the most stable conformer of title molecule as the C1 form. The complete assignments were performed on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method. (13)C and (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts of the molecule were calculated by using the gauge-invariant atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The electronic properties, such as excitation energies, absorption wavelengths, HOMO and LUMO energies, were performed by CIS approach. Finally the calculation results were applied to simulate infrared, Raman, and UV spectra of the title compound which show good agreement with observed spectra.

This work presents the characterization of 2,3-difluorophenylboronic acid (abbreviated as 2,3-DFPBA, C(6)H(3)B(OH)(2)F(2)) by quantum chemical calculations and spectral techniques. The spectroscopic properties were investigated by FT-IR, FT-Raman UV-Vis, (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. The FT-IR spectrum (4000-400 cm(-1)) and the FT-Raman spectrum (3500-10 cm(-1)) in the solid phase were recorded for 2,3-DFPBA. The (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra were recorded in DMSO solution. The UV-Vis absorption spectra of the 2,3-DFPBA that dissolved in water and ethanol were recorded in the range of 200-400 nm. There are four possible conformers for this molecule. The computational results diagnose the most stable conformer of the 2,3-DFPBA as the trans-cis form. The structural and spectroscopic data of the molecule were obtained for all four conformers from DFT (B3LYP) with 6-311++G (d,p) basis set calculations. The theoretical wavenumbers were scaled and compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. The complete assignments were performed on the basis of the experimental results and total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method, interpreted in terms of fundamental modes. We obtained good consistency between experimental and theoretical spectra. (13)C and (1)H NMR chemical shifts of the molecule were calculated by using the gauge-invariant atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The electronic properties, such as excitation energies, absorption wavelengths, HOMO and LUMO energies, were performed by time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) approach. Finally the calculation results were analyzed to simulate infrared, Raman, NMR and UV spectra of the 2,3-DFPBA which show good agreement with observed spectra.

The experimental (UV-vis and FT-IR) and theoretical study of 2-aminonicotinic acid (C(6)H(6)N(2)O(2)) was presented in this work. The ultraviolet absorption spectrum of title molecule that dissolved in ethanol and water were examined in the range of 200-400 nm. The FT-IR spectrum of the title molecule in the solid state were recorded in the region of 400-4000 cm(-1). The geometrical parameters and energies of 2-aminonicotinic acid have been obtained for all four conformers/isomers (C1, C2, C3, C4) from DFT (B3LYP) with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set calculations. C1 form has been identified the most stable conformer due to computational results. Therefore, spectroscopic properties have been searched for the most stable form of the molecule. The vibrational frequencies were calculated and scaled values were compared with experimental FT-IR spectrum. The complete assignments were performed based on the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method. Also the molecular structures, vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities were calculated for a pair of molecules linked by the intermolecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond. Moreover, the thermodynamic properties of the studied compound at different temperatures were calculated. Besides, charge transfer occurring in the molecule between HOMO and LUMO energies, frontier energy gap, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) were calculated and presented. The spectroscopic and theoretical results are compared to the corresponding properties for monomer and dimer of C1 conformer. The optimized bond lengths, bond angles, calculated frequencies and electronic transitions showed the agreement with the experimental results.

In this study, a novel compound (S)-N-benzyl-1-phenyl-5-(thiophen-3-yl)-4-pentyn-2-amine (abbreviated as BPTPA) was synthesized and structurally characterized by FT-IR, NMR and UV spectroscopy. The molecular geometry and vibrational frequencies of BPTPA in the ground state have been calculated by using the density functional method (B3LYP) invoking 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The geometry of the molecule was fully optimized, vibrational spectra were calculated. The fundamental vibrations were assigned on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method and PQS program. Total and partial density of state (TDOS and PDOS) and also overlap population density of state (OPDOS) diagrams analysis were given. The energy and oscillator strength of each excitation were calculated by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) results complements with the experimental findings. The NMR chemical shifts ((1)H and (13)C) were recorded and calculated using the gauge invariant atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The dipole moment, linear polarizability and first hyperpolarizability values were also computed. The linear polarizability and first hyper polarizability of the studied molecule indicate that the compound is a good candidate of nonlinear optical materials. Finally, vibrational wavenumbers, absorption wavelengths and chemical shifts were compared with calculated values, and found to be in good agreement with experimental results.

In this study the M(IN)(2)Ni(CN)(4) [where M: Co, Ni, and Cd, and IN: isonicotinic acid, abbreviated to M-Ni-IN] tetracyanonickelate and some metal halide complexes with the following stoichiometries: M(IN)(6)X(2) (M: Co; X: Cl and Br, and M: Ni; X: Cl, Br and I) and Hg(IN)X(2) (X: Cl, Br, and I) were synthesized for the first time. Certain chemical formulas were determined using elemental analysis results. The FT-IR and Raman spectra of the metal halide complexes were reported in the 4000-0 cm(-1) region. The FT-IR spectra of tetracyanonickelate complexes were also reported in the 4000-400 cm(-1) region. Vibrational assignments were given for all the observed bands. For a given series of isomorphous complexes, the sum of the difference between the values of the vibrational modes of the free isonicotinic acid and coordinated ligand was found to increase in the order of the second ionization potentials of metals. The frequency shifts were also found to be depending on the halogen. The proposed structure of tetracyanonickelate complexes consists of polymeric layers of /M-Ni(CN)(4)/(infinity) with the isonicotinic acid molecules bound directly to the metal atom.

We report synthesis of six new bis-nicotinamide metal(II) dihalide complexes [M(nia)(2)Cl(2); M = Mn, Co; nia:nicotinamide, M(nia)(2)Br(2); M = Mn, Hg; M(nia)(2)I(2); M = Cd, Cu], and their characterization by combining infrared spectroscopy with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Infrared spectra indicate that ring-nitrogen is the active donor cite, and the atomic structure of the complexes is determined to be polymeric octahedral or distorted polymeric octahedral. Spin polarized electronic ground state is obtained for Mn, Co, and Cu halide complexes. The colors of the complexes also support the conclusion of octahedral coordination around the metal atoms, in agreement with DFT results.
