Structural, Spectroscopic (FT-IR, Raman, NMR and UV-Vis.) and Theoretical Investigations of Cyclopentolate

Abstract

In this study, the structural and spectroscopic characterizations (FT-IR, Laser-Raman, 1H and 13C NMR and UV-vis spectra) of cyclopentolate were performed using experimental and theoretical methods. Four conformational structures and optimized molecular geometries of the molecule were examined. The vibrational wavenumbers, proton and carbon-13 NMR chemical shifts, UV-Vis. parameters were theoretically obtained for the most stable form of the molecule and the HOMO-LUMO analyses were performed with DFT/B3LYP method at aug-cc-pVDZ basis set. The weak intra-molecular hydrogen bond interaction in O45-H46…N23 group was determined. The 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts were experimentally and theoretically investigated. The assignments of theoretical vibrational modes were obtained using VEDA 4 software in terms of potential energy distribution (PED). The theoretically and experimentally obtained data were found to be consistent with each other.
