FT-IR, molecular structure, first order hyperpolarizability, MEP, HOMO and LUMO analysis and NBO analysis of 4-[(3-acetylphenyl)amino]-2-methylidene-4-oxobutanoic acid

摘要

4-[(3-Acetylphenyl)amino1-2-methylidene-4-oxobutanoic acid is synthesized and the structure of the compound was confirmed by IR, H-1 NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. FT-IR spectrum of 4-[(3-acetylphenyl)amino]-2-methylidene-4-oxobutanoic acid was recorded and analyzed. The crystal structure is also described. The vibrational wavenumbers were computed using HF and DFF methods are assigned with the help of potential energy distribution analysis. The NH stretching frequency is red shifted in the IR spectrum with a strong intensity from the computed frequency, which indicates the weakening of the NH bond resulting in proton transfer to the neighboring oxygen atom. The first hyperpolarizability and infrared intensities are also reported. The stability of the molecule arising from hyper-conjugative interaction and charge delocalization has been analyzed using NBO analysis. The HOMO and LUMO analysis are used to determine the charge transfer within the molecule. Molecular electrostatic potential map was performed by the DFT method. The geometrical parameters of the title compound obtained from XRD studies are in agreement with the calculated (DFT) values. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
