Experimental (FT-IR and FT-Raman) and theoretical (HF and DFT) investigation, NMR, NBO, electronic properties and frequency estimation analyses on 2,4,5-trichlorobenzene sulfonyl chloride

Abstract

The present work deals with the structural, electronic, and vibrational analyses of the biomolecule 2,4,5-trichlorobenzene sulfonyl chloride (TCBSC). TCBSC is a novel pharmaceutical compound used in dyes, pesticides, pigments, fluorescence brighteners and intermediate for agricultural chemicals in the manufacture of insecticides. Quantum chemical calculation of geometrical structure and energies of TCBSC was carried out by density functional theory (B3LYP) and ab initio (HF) methods at 6-311+G(d,p) and 6-311++G(d,p) standard basis set. The stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interaction and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. NMR analysis shows that the isotropic chemical shifts of carbon and hydrogen atom of TCBSC are giving the reasonable shielding to the molecule. Another interesting property shows nonlinear optical (NLO) behavior. Moreover, we have not only simulated highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) but also determined the transition state and energy band gap.
