Information on the electronic structure of a molecule and its chemical bonds is encoded in the molecular normal vibrational modes. However, normal vibrational modes result from a coupling of local vibrational modes, which means that only the latter can provide detailed insight into bonding and other structural features. In this work, it is proven that the adiabatic internal coordinate vibration...

The use of accurate quartic force fields together with vibrational configuration interaction recently predicted gas phase fundamental vibrational frequencies of the trans-HOCO radical to within 4 cm(-1) of experimental results for the two highest frequency modes. Utilizing the same approach, we are providing a full list of fundamental vibrational frequencies and spectroscopic constants for the ...

The FT-IR and Raman spectra of 4-Chloro-2-Fluroaniline (4C2FA) were measured. The fundamental vibrational frequencies and intensity of vibrational bands were evaluated using density functional theory (DFT) and standard B3LYP/6-311+G** basis set combination. The vibrational spectra were interpreted, with the aid of normal coordinate analysis based on a scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force field...

We optimized the geometries of the graphene and graphene with hydrogen using PW91VWN, PWCIPL,MPWLYP, G96LYP, G96141.0-210.6-310, 6-31G*Ievels of theory and compared our results with each other.We present the most important structural parameters determined for the addition of a hydrogen atom tographene and the outward movement of the carbon atom that is bonded to hydrogen is 0.48 A Also wecalcul...

We propose a hierarchical approach to model vibrational frequencies of a ligand in a strongly fluctuating inhomogeneous environment such as a liquid solution or when bound to a macromolecule, e.g., a protein. Vibrational frequencies typically measured experimentally are ensemble averaged quantities which result (in part) from the influence of the strongly fluctuating solvent. Solvent fluctuatio...

Vibrational relaxation accounts for absorption and dispersion of acoustic waves in gases that can be significantly greater than the classical absorption mechanisms related to shear viscosity and heat conduction. This vibrational relaxation results from retarded energy exchange between translational and intramolecular vibrational degrees of freedom. Theoretical calculation of the vibrational rel...

in the present work, dft calculations are employed to obtain the optimized structures of 4-acyl pyrazolone tautomers (19 tautomers) using b3lyp/6-311++g** calculations. inaddition, molecular parameters, ir frequencies and relative energies are extracted for alltautomers. the existence of aromatic ring, keto tautomer (versus enol tautomer), n-h bond(versus c-h bond) and c=n double bond (versus n...

Most organic compounds provide vibrational spectra within the CH stretching region, yet the signal is difficult to interpret because of multiple difficulties in experiment and modeling. To better understand various factors involved, the ability of several harmonic and anharmonic computational approaches to describe these vibrations was explored for α-pinene, fenchone, and camphor as test compou...

Most of internal combustion engines have one or two heat shields that have been installed on the exhaust manifold to avoid the heat transfer to upper parts of the engine such as the valve cover. In some engines, this part fails due to the fracture and causes engine noise and other failures in the engine. In this paper, the failure of a heat shield due to vibrational loads of the engine has been...

The vibrational dynamics of oligomers of thiophene is treated theoretically and the experimental infrared and Raman spectra are studied with the main purpose to derive information for the interpretation of the spectra of polythiophene. The optimized geometries and the vibrational force field are calculated for the oligomers Th, (n = 1, 2, 3,4, and 6) and the parameters are used for PTh. For PTh...
