Infrared, Raman and NMR spectral analysis, vibrational assignments, normal coordinate analysis, and quantum mechanical calculations of 2-Amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole

摘要

Raman (3500-55 cm I) and infrared (4000-300 cm(-1)) spectra of 2-Amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (AET; C4H7N3S) have been recorded in the solid phase. In addition, the H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra of PET were obtained in DMSO-d(6). As a result of internal rotations of either methyl and/or ethyl groups around the CC bonds with NH2 moiety being planar (sp2) and/or non-planar (sp(3)) eight structures are theoretically proposed (1-8). The conformational energies and vibrational frequencies have been calculated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with the methods of B3LYP and B3PW91 utilizing 6-31G (d) and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets. And then S-4 (the only conformer with real frequencies) was optimized, to yield 5-9, however the Thiadiazole ring slightly twisted (tilt angle is 0.9 degrees). The H-1 and C-13 NMR chemical shifts were also predicted using a GIAO approximation. at 6-311++G(d,p) basis set utilizing B3LYP and B3PW91 methods with solvent effects using PCM method. The computational outcomes favor S-9; the methyl group being staggered to the lone pair of N-4 and reside trans position to the S atom, whereas NH2 is nonplanar in good agreement with the current study. Aided by the above mentioned DFT computations, a complete vibrational assignment of the observed infrared and Raman bands along with NMR chemical shifts has been proposed. The vibrational interpretations have been supported by normal coordinate analysis and potential energy distributions (PEDs). Finally, NH2, CH3 and C2H5 barriers to internal rotations were carried out using B3LYP/6-31G(d) optimized structural parameters (S-9). The results are reported herein and compared with X-ray structural parameters. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
