title: Antimycobacterial, antimicrobial activity, experimental (FT-IR, FT-Raman, NMR, UV-Vis, DSC) and DFT (transition state, chemical reactivity, NBO, NLO) studies on pyrrole-isonicotinyl hydrazine.
abstract: As part of a study of pyrrole hydrazone, we have investigated quantum chemical calculations, molecular geometry, relative energy, vibrational properties and antimycobacterial/antimicrobial activity of pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde isonicotinyl hydrazone (PCINH), by applying the density functional theory (DFT) and Hartree Fock (HF). Good reproduction of experimental values is obtained and with small percentage error in majority of the cases in comparison to theoretical result (DFT). The experimental FT-IR and Raman wavenumbers were compared with the respective theoretical values obtained from DFT calculations and found to agree well. In crystal structure studies the hydrated PCINH (syn-syn conformer) shows different conformation than from anhydrous form (syn-anti conformer). The rotational barrier between syn-syn and syn-anti conformers of PCINH is 12.7kcal/mol in the gas phase. In this work, use of FT-IR, FT-Raman,1H NMR,13C NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopies has been made for full characterization of PCINH. A detailed interpretation of the vibrational spectrum was carried out with the aid of normal coordinate analysis using single scaling factor. Our results support the hydrogen bonding pattern proposed by reported crystalline structure. The calculated nature of electronic transitions within molecule found to be π→π*. The electronic descriptors study indicates that PCINH can be used as robust synthon for synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds. The first static hyperpolarizability (β0) of PCINH is calculated as 33.89×10-30esu,(gas phase); 68.79×10-30(CHCl3), esu; 76.76×10-30esu (CH2Cl2), 85.16×10-30esu (DMSO). The solvent induced effects on the first static hyperpolarizability were studied and found to increase as dielectric constants of the solvents increases. Investigated molecule shows better NLO value than Para nitroaniline (PNA). The compound PCINH shows good antifungal and antibacterial activity against Aspergillus niger and gram-positive bacteria Bacillus subtilis, respectively. The compound also shows good antituberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv using the microplate alamar blue assay (MABA).
