Vibrational spectroscopic and computational study of 1,7,8,9-Tetrachloro-4-(4-bromo-butyl)-10,10-dimethoxy-4-aza-tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)] dec-8-ene-3,5-dione

Abstract

The optimized molecular structure, vibrational frequencies, corresponding vibrational assignments of 1,7,8,9-Tetrachloro-4-(4-bromo-butyl)-10,10-dimethoxy-4-aza-tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)] dec-8-ene-3,5-dione (TDAD) have been investigated experimentally and theoretically using Gaussian09 software package. Potential energy distribution of normal modes of vibrations was done using GAR2PED program. Gauge-including atomic orbital (1)H NMR chemical shifts calculations were carried out and compared with experimental data. The HOMO and LUMO analysis is used to determine the charge transfer within the molecule. The stability of the molecule arising from hyper-conjugative interaction and charge delocalization has been analyzed using NBO analysis. Molecular Electrostatic Potential was performed by the DFT method and infrared intensities and Raman activities are also reported. Mulliken's net charges have been calculated and compared with the atomic natural charges. First hyperpolarizability is calculated in order to find its role in non-liner optics. The calculated geometrical parameters are in agreement with that of similar derivatives.
