Vibrational spectra and assignments of 5-amino-2-chlorobenzoic acid by ab initio Hartree-Fock and density functional methods.
The Fourier transform Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectra of 5-amino-2-chlorobenzoic acid (5A2CBA) were recorded in the solid phase. Geometry opitimizations were done without any constraint and harmonic-vibrational wavenumber and several thermodynamic parameters were calculated for the minimum energy conformer at ab initio and DFT levels invoking 6-311G(d,p) basis set and the results are compared with the experimental values with the help of three specific scaling procedures, the observed vibrational wavenumbers in FTIR and FT-Raman spectra were analyzed and assigned to different normal modes of the molecule. Most of the modes have wavenumbers in the expected range, the error obtained was in general very low. The appropriate theoretical spectrograms for the FTIR spectra of the title molecule were also constructed.
