Anharmonic vibrational and electronic spectral study of 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidine: A combined experimental (FTIR, FT-Raman, UV-Vis) and theoretical (DFT, MP2) approach

摘要

A combined experimental and theoretical study of the structure, vibrational spectra and electronic spectra of 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidine in the ground electronic state are reported. Anharmonic frequencies for the most stable conformer have been simulated using GVPT2, VSCF and PT2-VSCF methods with potential energy surface calculated using MP2 and DFT level of theory with 6-311G(d,p) basis set. The vibrational spectra (FTIR and FT-Raman) are interpreted in terms of fundamental, combination and overtone bands. It is found that the experimental and the VPT2 computed frequencies are in well agreement. The experimental and the calculated UV-Vis spectrum in gas and ethanol solvent are found comparable. Furthermore, HOMO-LUMO analysis, NLO, MEP, and natural charges of the molecule are also reported. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
