Structural Preferences and Vibrational Analysis of 2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one: A Computational and Infrared Spectroscopic Research
Résumé
The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenylpropan-1-one has been measured in the region
4000–700 cm−1. The most stable conformation of title molecule was found after a careful potential energy surfaces study. The
molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies, and infrared intensities have been calculated by using ab initio HF and density
functional theory calculation B3LYP with 6-311+G∗∗ basis set. Scaled frequencies and potential energy distribution were calculated
for band assignment. We found an excellent agreement between the experimental and the simulated spectra. Energy gap between
HOMO and LUMO explains the eventual charge transfer interactions taking place within the molecule.
