Abstract

The interacting nature of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in binary mixtures has been carried out on CH and CSC stretching modes of vibration using chloroform (CLF), chloroform-d (CLFd), acetonitrile (ACN) and acetonitrile-d3 (ACNd) solvents. Peak frequencies of both the stretching modes show blue shift with the increase in solvent concentration. Variation of Raman bandwidth with the solvent concentration was discussed using different mechanisms. Ab initio calculation for geometry optimization and vibrational wavenumber calculation have been performed on monomer and dimer structures of DMSO to explain the experimentally observed Raman spectra. Theoretically calculated values are found in good agreement with the experimental results. Vibrational and reorientational relaxation times have been studied corresponding to solvent concentrations to elucidate the interacting mechanisms of binary mixtures.
