Vibrational analyses of 1,3-dibenzoyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-2-thione and 1,3-dibenzoyl tetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione by normal coordinate treatment.

Vibrational analyses of 1,3-dibenzoyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-2-thione and 1,3-dibenzoyl tetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione were carried out using normal coordinate analysis. FT-IR spectra were recorded in the region 4000-400 cm(-1). The harmonic vibrational frequencies, molecular geometry and atomic charges have been computed, and NBO analysis has been carried out with the help of B3LYP density functional theory (DFT).

Synthesis, experimental and theoretical characterization of palladium(II) and platinum(II) saccharinate complexes with 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole.

New palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of saccharinate (sac) with 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole (pybim) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques. From the experimental studies, these complexes were formulated as [Pd(pybim)(sac)2] (1), and [Pt(pybim)(sac)2]·4H2O (2). The ground-state geometries of both complexes were optimized using density functional theory (DFT) methods at the B3LYP level.
