Abstract
The crystal structures of two Schiff base compounds, 2,6-dichlorobenzylidene-2,4-dichloroaniline (1) and 2,4-dichlorobenzylidene-2,4-dichloroaniline (2) have been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized by FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The electronic structures of compounds 1 and 2 in the gas phase were computed by the density functional theory (DFT) method. The obtained theoretical results were supported by the crystallographic data. In addition, theoretical configurations of the title compounds were relaxed and studied in terms of the combined analysis of HOMO–LUMO energy gap, total density of states (DOS), molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), NMR spectra and harmonic vibrational frequencies.
