RESUMO
Molecular electronic structure, IR, UV, and NMR spectra of the most popular cathinone, known as mephedrone or 4-methylmethcathinone (4-MMC), is studied thoroughly by quantum chemical calculation in terms of the density functional theory (DFT). Geometry optimization of 4-MMC and its hydrochloride complex is performed with the B3LYP functional, and all vibrational frequencies are analyzed in all details. On this background, the IR and Raman spectra are interpreted. The importance of low-frequency terahertz and Raman spectra is stressed for distinguishing of various MMC isomers. The UV spectrum is calculated by time-dependent DFT method which allows complete interpretation of intense absorption bands at 270 and 210 nm as combinations of various ππ*, nπ*, and charge transfer excitations in amino-phenyl moieties. Very informative analysis of UV absorption and NMR spectra provides useful details on the structure-activity relationship for mephedrone molecule.

In this study, 5-iodosalicylic acid (5-ISA, C7H5IO3) is structurally characterized by FT-IR, FT-Raman, NMR and UV spectroscopies. There are eight conformers, Cn, n=1-8 for this molecule therefore the molecular geometry for these eight conformers in the ground state are calculated by using the ab-initio density functional theory (DFT) B3LYP method approach with the aug-cc-pVDZ-PP basis set for iodine and the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set for the other elements. The computational results identified that the most stable conformer of 5-ISA is the C1 form. The vibrational spectra are calculated DFT method invoking the same basis sets and fundamental vibrations are assigned on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method with PQS program. Total density of state (TDOS) and partial density of state (PDOS) and also overlap population density of state (COOP or OPDOS) diagrams analysis for C1 conformer were calculated using the same method. The energy and oscillator strength are calculated by time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) results complement with the experimental findings. Besides, charge transfer occurring in the molecule between HOMO and LUMO energies, frontier energy gap, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) are calculated and presented. The NMR chemical shifts ((1)H and (13)C) spectra are recorded and calculated using the gauge independent atomic orbital (GIAO) method. Mulliken atomic charges of the title molecule are also calculated, interpreted and compared with salicylic acid. The optimized bond lengths, bond angles and calculated NMR and UV, vibrational wavenumbers showed the best agreement with the experimental results.

The molecular structure and vibrations of 5-[(3-methylphenyl) (phenyl) amino] isophthalic acid (MePIFA) were investigated by infrared and Raman spectroscopies, UV-Vis, (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopic techniques and NBO analysis. FT-IR, FT-Raman and dispersive Raman spectra were recorded in the solid phase. (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra and UV-Vis spectrum were recorded in DMSO solution. HOMO-LUMO analysis and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis were performed. The theoretical calculations for the molecular structure and spectroscopies were performed with DFT (B3LYP) and 6-311G(d,p) basis set calculations using the Gaussian 09 program. After the geometry of the molecule was optimized, vibration wavenumbers and fundamental vibration wavenumbers were assigned on the basis of the potential energy distribution (PED) of the vibrational modes calculated with VEDA 4 program. The total (TDOS), partial (PDOS) density of state and overlap population density of state (OPDOS) diagrams analysis were made using GaussSum 2.2 program. The results of theoretical calculations for the spectra of the title compound were compared with the observed spectra.

Extensive spectroscopic investigations along with theoretical quantum chemical studies on 3,5-dimethyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid (DMMBA) have been consummated. The fundamental vibrational transitions were addressed by experimental FT-IR (4000-400cm(-1)) and FT-Raman (4000-10cm(-1)) techniques and density functional calculations at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311++G(df,pd) levels of theory. The (1)H, (13)C and DEPT 135 NMR spectra of studied compound were recorded in deuterated dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO-d6), and compared with computed data obtained by using gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The electronic absorption spectra in methanol and ethanol solution were evaluated in the range of 200-400nm, and TD-DFT method was chosen for computational study. The spectroscopic and theoretical results were compared to the corresponding properties for monomer and dimer structures for the most stable conformer. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. Moreover, the thermodynamic and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties were evaluated.
