The calculated molecular geometry has been compared with experimental data. The detailed interpretation of the vibrational spectra has been carried out by using VEDA program. The hyper-conjugative interactions and charge delocalization have been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The simulated FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra satisfactorily coincide with the experimental spectra. The PES and charge analysis have been made. The molecular docking was done to identify the binding energy and the Hydrogen bonding with the cancer protein molecule.

Vibrational spectral investigation and natural bond orbital analysis of pharmaceutical compound 7-Amino-2,4-dimethylquinolinium formate - DFT approach

The molecular geometry, the normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments, natural bond orbital analysis and the HOMO-LUMO analysis of 7-Amino-2,4-dimethylquinolinium formate in the ground state were performed by B3LYP levels of theory using the 6-31G(d) basis set. The optimised bond lengths and bond angles are in good agreement with the X-ray data. The vibrational spectra of the title compound which is calculated by DFT method, reproduces vibrational wave numbers and intensities with an accuracy which allows reliable vibrational assignments. The possibility of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding was identified using NBO analysis. Natural bond orbital analysis confirms the presence of intramolecular charge transfer and the hydrogen bonding interaction.

Structural conformations and density functional study on the intramolecular charge transfer based on vibrational spectra of 2,4-dihydroxy-N'-(4-methoxybenzylidene)benzohydrazide

The NIR-FT Raman and FT-IR spectra of 2,4-dihydroxy-N'-(methoxybenzylidene) benzohydrazide (DMBBH) molecule have been recorded and analyzed. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level has been used to compute energies of different conformers of DMBBH to find out their stability, the optimized geometry of the most stable conformer and its vibrational spectrum. Information about the size, shape, charge density distribution and site of chemical reactivity of the molecules has been obtained by mapping electron density isosurface with electrostatic potential surfaces (ESP). A complete vibrational analysis has been attempted on the basis of experimental infrared and Raman spectra and calculated vibrational modes and potential energy distribution over the internal coordinates. The vibrational analysis confirm the charge transfer interaction between the phenyl rings through C=N-N skeleton. The broadening of the band at 1631 cm(-1) and the appearance of the band at 1556 cm(-1) strongly suggests the existence of proton equilibrium.

Vibrational spectral investigation and Natural Bond Orbital analysis of anti-rheumatoid drug ethyl 4-nitrophenylacetate--DFT approach

Vibrational analysis of ethyl 4-nitrophenylacetate (ENPA) molecule was carried out using FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopic techniques. The equilibrium geometry, harmonic vibrational wave numbers, various bonding features have been computed using density functional theory. The calculated molecular geometry parameters have been compared with XRD data. The detailed interpretation of the vibrational spectra has been carried out by computing Potential Energy Distribution (PED). Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis. The results show that the charge in the electron density (ED) in the σ(*) and π(*) antibonding orbitals and second order delocalization energies (E(2)) confirm the occurrence of ICT (intramolecular charge transfer) within the molecule. The simulated spectra satisfactorily coincide with the experimental spectra.
