Synthesis and Structural Study on (1E,2E,1'E,2'E)-3,3'-bis[(4-bromophenyl)-3,3'-(4-methy-1,2-phenylene diimine)] Acetaldehyde Dioxime: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study

OpenAlex English

Tetradentate (1E,2E,1′E,2′E)-3,3′-bis[(4-bromophenyl)-3,3′-(4-methy-1,2-phenylene diimine)] acetaldehyde dioxime which possess N 4 donor sets derived from the condensation of isonitroso- p -bromoacetophenone and 3,4-diaminotoluene are synthesized and characterized. The characterization of tetradentate Schiff base ligand has been deduced from LC-MS, FTIR, 13 C and 1 H NMR spectra and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the molecular geometry, infrared and NMR spectra of the title molecule in the ground state have been calculated by using the quantum chemical computational methods such as density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) methods with the 6–31G(d) and 6–311G(d) basis sets. The computed bond lengths and bond angles by using the both methods show the good agreement with each other. Moreover, the vibrational frequencies have been calculated and the scaled values have been compared with the experimental FTIR spectroscopic data. Assignments of the vibrational modes are made on the basis of potential energy distribution (PED) calculated from by using VEDA program. The correlations between the observed and calculated frequencies are in good agreement with each other as well as the correlation of the NMR data.
