HOMO-LUMO, UV, NLO, NMR and vibrational analysis of 3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole using FT-IR, FT-RAMAN FT-NMR spectra and HF-DFT computational methods.

In this paper, the spectral analysis of 3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole is carried out using the FT-IR, FT Raman, FT NMR and UV-Vis spectra with the help of quantum mechanical computations using HF and density functional theories. The different conformers of the compound and their minimum energies are studied using B3LYP functional with 6-311+G (d,p) basis set and the most stable conformer with minimum energy was identified and the same conformer was used for further computations. The computed wave numbers from different methods are scaled so as to agree with the experimental values and the scaling factors are reported.

Conformational, structural, vibrational and quantum chemical analysis on 4-aminobenzohydrazide and 4-hydroxybenzohydrazide--a comparative study.

Experimental and theoretical quantum chemical studies were carried out on 4-hydroxybenzohydrazide (4HBH) and 4-aminobenzohydrazide (4ABH) using FTIR and FT-Raman spectral data. The structural characteristics and vibrational spectroscopic analysis were carried performed by quantum chemical methods with the hybrid exchange-correlation functional B3LYP using 6-31G(**), 6-311++G(**) and aug-cc-pVDZ basis sets. The most stable conformer of the title compounds have been determined from the analysis of potential energy surface.

Quantum chemical studies and vibrational analysis of 4-acetyl benzonitrile, 4-formyl benzonitrile and 4-hydroxy benzonitrile--a comparative study.

The FTIR and FT-Raman vibrational spectra of 4-actetyl benzonitrile, 4-formyl benzonitrile and 4-hydroxy benzonitrile molecules have been recorded in the range 4000-400 and 4000-100 cm(-1), respectively. The complete vibrational assignment and analysis of the fundamental modes of the most stable geometry of the compounds were carried out using the experimental FTIR and FT-Raman data on the basis of peak positions, relative intensities and quantum chemical studies. The observed vibrational frequencies were compared with the theoretical wavenumbers of the optimised geometry of the compounds obtained from the DFT-B3LYP gradient calculations employing the standard 6-31G**, high level 6-311++G** and cc-pVDZ basis sets.
