Structural characterization, solvent effects on nuclear magnetic shielding tensors, experimental and theoretical DFT studies on the vibrational and NMR spectra of 3-(acrylamido)phenylboronic acid

Structural elucidation of 3-(acrylamido)phenylboronic acid (C9H10BNO3) was carried out with H-1, C-3 and HETCOR NMR techniques. Solvent effects on nuclear magnetic shielding tensors were examined with deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide, acetone, methanol and water solvents. The correct order of appearance of carbon and hydrogen atoms on NMR scale from highest magnetic field region to the lowest one were investigated using different types of theoretical levels and the details of the levels were presented in this study. Stable structural conformers and vibrational band analysis of the title molecule (C(9)Fl(10)BNO(3)) were studied both experimental and theoretical viewpoints using FT-IR, Raman spectroscopic methods and density functional theory (DFT). FT-IR and Raman spectra were obtained in the region of 4000-400 cm(-1), and 3700-10 cm(-1), respectively. Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) hybrid density functional theory method with 6-31++G(d, p) basis set was included in the search for optimized structures and vibrational wavenumbers. Experimental and theoretical results show that after application of a suitable scaling factor density functional B3LYP method resulted in acceptable results for predicting vibrational wavenumbers except OH and NH stretching modes which is most likely arising from increasing unharmonicity in the high wave number region and possible intra and inter molecular interaction at OH edges those of which are not fully taken into consideration in theoretical processes. To make a more quantitative vibrational assignments, potential energy distribution (PED) values were calculated using VEDA 4 (Vibrational Energy Distribution Analysis) program. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
