Preparation, properties and infrared spectral studies of N-(p-ethylphenyl)thiobenzohydroxamic acid

Synthesis, spectral analysis, molecular docking and DFT studies of 3-(2, 6-dichlorophenyl)-acrylamide and its dimer through QTAIM approach

In this paper, an experimental study of (E)-3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-acrylamide and its associated dimer were analysed with molecular docking, DFT and QTAIM approach. To spot, describe, and measure the non-covalent interactions (NCIs) of the atoms in the molecules of the monomer and its dimer, some important topological parameters of the charge densities, ρ(r) acquired from the Bader's QTAIM tool are determined, quantitatively. The bond paths are shown to persist for a range of five types of NCIs such as weak conventional (C-H···Cl) and nonconventional (C-O···C and N-O···Cl), medium (N-H···Cl) and strong O-H···O NCIs revealed by the existence of BCPs (ranging from 1.921 - 3.259 Å). A comprehensive explanation of the spectroscopic data like vibrational, electronic, and NMR spectra is reported along with the NLO, reactivity. Hydroxamic acid exhibited an excellent nonlinear optical activity (β₀ = 14.8098 × 10⁻³⁰). To predict the various reactive sites in the molecule, molecular electrostatic potential diagrams were displayed.
