Synthesis, characterization, spectroscopy, X-ray structure and gaussian hybrid computational investigation of (−)-(S)-1-[2-(benzenesulfonamido)-3-phenylpropanoyl]-4-[(4-methyl)phenyl]thiosemicarbazide

Abstract

The molecule (−)-(S)-1-[2-(benzenesulfonamido)-3-phenylpropanoyl]-4-[(4-methyl)phenyl] thiosemicarbazide was synthesized and its structure analyzed by X-ray diffraction to understand its geometry, and inter/intra-molecular interactions. Theoretical calculations were carried out using DFT and TD-DFT methods with B3LYP/6-31G(d, p) and B3LYP/6-31G + (d, p) basis sets. Theoretical bond parameters, harmonic vibration frequencies, and chemical shifts are in good agreement with the experimental results. Electronic properties of the molecule derived from frontier orbitals, molecular electrostatic potential, and theoretical UV-Visible spectrum are validated experimentally.
