Structure and IR Spectroscopic Properties of HNCO Complexes with SO2 Isolated in Solid Argon.

ABSTRACT: FTIR spectroscopy was combined with the matrix isolation technique and quantum chemical calculations with the aim of studying complexes of isocyanic acid with sulfur dioxide. The structures of the HNCO⋯SO2 complexes of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 stoichiometry were optimized at the MP2, B3LYPD3, B2PLYPD3 levels of theory with the 6-311++G(3df,3pd) basis set. Five stable 1:1 HNCO⋯SO2 complexes were found. Three of them contain a weak N-H⋯O hydrogen bond, whereas two other structures are stabilized by van der Waals interactions. The analysis of the HNCO/SO2/Ar spectra after deposition indicates that mostly the 1:1 hydrogen-bonded complexes are present in argon matrices, with a small amount of the van der Waals structures. Upon annealing, complexes of the 1:2 stoichiometry were detected, as well.

Direct IR Absorption Spectra of Propargyl Cation Isolated in Solid Argon.

Project description:The direct infrared (IR) absorption spectra of propargyl cations were recorded. These cations were generated via the electron bombardment of a propyne/Ar matrix sample during matrix deposition. Secondary photolysis with selected ultraviolet (UV) light was used for grouping the observed bands of various products. The band assignment of the propargyl cation in solid Ar was performed according by referring to the previous infrared photodissociation (IRPD) and velocity-map imaging photoelectron (VMI-PE) data, and via theoretical predictions of the anharmonic vibrational wavenumbers, band intensities, and deuterium-substituted isotopic ratios. Almost all the IR active bands with an observable intensity were recorded and the ν11 mode was reported for the first time.

Spectroscopic properties and molecular structure of copper phytate complexes: IR, Raman, UV-Vis, EPR studies and DFT calculations.

Project description:The copper phytate IP6Cu, IP6Cu2 and IP6Cu3 complexes were synthesized changing the phytate to metal mole ratio. The obtained products have been characterized by means of chemical and spectroscopic studies. Spectroscopic ATR/IR, FT-Raman, UV-Vis, EPR and magnetic measurements were carried out. The structures of these compounds have been proposed on the basis of the group theory and geometry optimization taking into account the shape and number of the bands corresponding to the stretching and bending vibrations of the phosphate group and metal-oxygen polyhedron. The role of the inter- and intra-hydrogen bonds in stabilization of the structure has been discussed. EPR studies showed that a local rhombic symmetry of copper ions appears in the studied phytates. Dominant interactions show antiferromagnetic properties depending on the content of paramagnetic ions.

Fourier transform IR spectroscopic study of hydration-induced structure changes in the solid state of omega-gliadins.

Project description:The hydration of omega-gliadins and party deamidated and esterified omega-gliadins has been studied by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy. The secondary structure of the fully hydrated proteins was a mixture of beta-turns and extended chains, with a small amount of intermolecular beta-sheets. The absorption of the glutamine side chain amide groups contributed considerably to the amide I band with two well-defined peaks at 1658 and 1610 cm-1. the amide I band of the dry native sample could not be resolved into single component bands. There the backbone structure seemed to be distorted by extensive hydrogen bonding involving glutamine side chains. With increasing water content, these hydrogen bonds were broken successively by water molecules, resulting in an increase in extended, hydrated structures, which gave rise to the formation of intermolecular beta-sheet structures. Above 35% (w/w) water the beta-sheet content fell sharply and was replaced by extensively hydrated extended structures. An amide I band similar to dissolved poly-L-proline proved that parts of the polymer were in a solution-like state. The replacement of many glutamine side chains in the esterified protein produced more resolved secondary structures even in the dry sample. The beta-sheet content of the dry sample was higher than in the native omega-gliadins, but hydration generally caused very similar changes. At all hydration levels the spectra indicated a more ordered structure than in the native sample. Overall, the modification caused changes that go beyond the simple presence or absence of glutamine bands.

Spectroscopic Properties, Conformation and Structure of Difluorothiophosphoryl Isocyanate in the Gaseous and Solid Phase.

Project description:Difluorothiophosphoryl isocyanate, F2P(S)NCO was characterized with UV/vis, NMR, IR (gas and Ar-matrix), and Raman (liquid) spectroscopy. Its molecular structure was also established by means of gas electron diffraction (GED) and single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) in the gas phase and solid state, respectively. The analysis of the spectroscopic data and molecular structures is complemented by extensive quantum-chemical calculations. Theoretically, the Cs symmetric syn-conformer is predicted to be the most stable conformation. Rotation about the P-N bond requires about 9 kJ mol-1 and the predicted existence of an anti-conformer is dependent on the quantum-chemical method used. This syn-orientation of the isocyanate group is the only one found in the gas phase and contained likewise in the crystal. The overall molecular structure is very similar in gas and solid, despite in the solid state the molecules arrange through intramolecular O⋅⋅⋅F contacts into layers, which are further interconnected by S⋅⋅⋅N, S⋅⋅⋅C and C⋅⋅⋅F contacts. Additionally, the photodecomposition of F2P(S)NCO to form CO, F2P(S)N, and F2PNCO is observed in the solid Ar-matrix.

Structure and IR Spectra of 3(5)-Aminopyrazoles and UV-Induced Tautomerization in Argon Matrix.

Project description:The prototropic tautomerism in 3(5)-aminopyrazoles was investigated by matrix isolation infrared (IR) spectroscopy, supported by DFT(B3LYP)/6-311++G(d,p) calculations. In consonance with the experimental data, the calculations predict tautomer 3-aminopyrazole (3AP) to be more stable than the 5-aminopyrazole (5AP) tautomer (calculated energy difference: 10.7 kJ mol-1; Gibbs free energy difference: 9.8 kJ mol-1). The obtained matrix isolation IR spectra (in both argon and xenon matrices) were interpreted, and the observed bands were assigned to the tautomeric forms with help of vibrational calculations carried out at both harmonic and anharmonic levels. The matrix-isolated compound (in argon matrix) was then subjected to in situ broadband UV irradiation (λ > 235 nm), and the UV-induced transformations were followed by IR spectroscopy. Phototautomerization of the 3AP tautomer into the 5AP form was observed as the strongly prevalent reaction.

Spectroscopic and interfacial properties of myoglobin/surfactant complexes.

Project description:The complexes of horse myoglobin (Mb) with the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and with the cationic surfactants cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and decyltrimethylammonium bromide (DeTAB), have been studied by a combination of surface tension measurements and optical spectroscopy, including heme absorption and aromatic amino acid fluorescence. SDS interacts in a monomeric form with Mb, which suggests the existence of a specific binding site for SDS, and induces the formation of a hexacoordinated Mb heme, possibly involving the distal histidine. Fluorescence spectra display an increase of tryptophan emission. Both effects point to an increased protein flexibility. SDS micelles induce both the appearance of two more heme species, one of which has the features of free heme, and protein unfolding. Mb/CTAC complexes display a very different behavior. CTAC monomers have no effect on the absorption spectra, and only a slight effect on the fluorescence spectra, whereas the formation of CTAC aggregates on the protein strongly affects both absorption and fluorescence. Mb/DeTAB complexes behave in a very similar way as Mb/CTAC complexes. The surface activity of the different Mb/surfactant complexes, as well as the interactions between the surfactants and Mb, are discussed on the basis of their structural properties.

Complexes of Glycolic Acid with Nitrogen Isolated in Argon Matrices. II. Vibrational Overtone Excitations.

Project description:Structural changes of glycolic acid (GA) complex with nitrogen induced by selective overtone excitation of the νOH mode were followed in argon matrices using FTIR spectroscopy. For the most stable SSC1 complex present in different trapping sites directly upon deposition site, selective changes in the νOH region were achieved upon near-infrared irradiation. Simultaneously, new conformers of the GA…N2 complex were formed, giving rise to several sets of bands in the νOH and νC=O regions of the spectra. Both position and intensity of new absorptions appeared to be highly sensitive on the wavelength of radiation used, as well as on the annealing of the matrix. Based on theoretical calculations at different levels of theory, an assignment of the observed bands is proposed and discussed.

Complexes of Glycolic Acid with Nitrogen Isolated in Argon Matrices. I. Structures and Thermal Effects.

Project description:Molecular complexes between glycolic acid and nitrogen were studied in a low-temperature argon matrix with FTIR spectroscopy, and supported by MP2 and BLYPD3 calculations. The calculations indicate 11 and 10 stable complex structures at the MP2 and BLYPD3 levels of theories, respectively. However, only one hydrogen-bonded complex structure involving the most stable SSC conformer of glycolic acid was found experimentally, where the nitrogen molecule is bound with the carboxylic OH group of the SSC conformer. The complex shows a rich site structure variation upon deposition of the matrix in different temperatures and upon annealing experiments, which provide interesting prospects for site-selective chemistry.

Cobaltoceniumselenolate Gold(I) Complexes: Synthesis, Spectroscopic, Structural and Anticancer Properties.

Project description:Cobaltoceniumselenolate is an unusual, highly air-sensitive, mesoionic compound containing a very soft anionic selenium donor atom. Here we explore its coordination chemistry with Au(I) metal centers and show that its hetero- and homoleptic gold complexes are highly colored, air-stable compounds, which were characterized by 1H/13C/31P/77Se NMR, IR, UV-Vis, HR-MS and single crystal XRD. Cytotoxicity of these polar, water-soluble complexes was studied against various standard cancer cell lines (A549MDA-MB-231, HT-29) revealing good anticancer activity of all three complexes.

Detailed molecular structure (XRD), conformational search, spectroscopic characterization (IR, Raman, UV, fluorescence), quantum mechanical properties and bioactivity prediction of a pyrrole analogue.

Project description:Pyrroles are an exciting class of organic compounds with immense medicinal activities. This manuscript presents the structural and quantum mechanical studies of 1-(2-aminophenyl) pyrrole using X-Ray diffraction and various spectroscopic methods like Infra-Red, Raman, Ultra-violet and Fluorescence spectroscopy and its comparison with theoretical simulations. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction values and optimized geometry parameters also were within the agreeable range. A fully relaxed potential energy scan revealed the stability of the possible conformers of this molecule. We present the density functional theory results and assignment of the vibrational modes in the infrared spectrum. The experimental and scaled simulated vibrations matched when density functional theory simulations (B3LYP functional with 6-311++G∗∗). The electronic spectrum was simulated using time-dependent density functional theory with CAM-B3LYP functional in dimethylsulphoxide solvent. The fluorescence spectrum of the compound was studied at different excitation wavelengths in the dimethylsulphoxide solvent. The stability of the molecule by intramolecular electron transfer by hyperconjugation was studied with the natural bond orbital analysis. Frontier molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potentials of the compound gave an idea about the reactive behaviour of the compounds. Prediction of activity spectral studies followed by docking analysis indicated that the molecule is active against arylacetonitrilase inhibitor.
