Vibrational spectroscopic (FT-IR, FT-Raman, SERS) and quantum chemical calculations of 3-(10,10-dimethyl-anthracen-9-ylidene)-N,N,N-trimethylpropanaminiium chloride (Melitracenium chloride)

abstract

FT-IR, FT-Raman spectra of Melitracenium chloride were recorded and analyzed. SERS spectrum was recorded in silver colloid. The vibrational wavenumbers were computed using DFT quantum chemical calculations. The data obtained from wavenumber calculations are used to assign vibrational bands obtained in infrared and Raman spectra as well as in SERS of the studied molecule. Potential energy distribution was done using GAR2PED program. The geometrical parameters (SDD) of the title compound are in agreement with the XRD results. The presence anthracene ring modes in the SERS spectrum suggest a tilted orientation with respect to the metal surface. The methyl groups in the title molecule are also close to the metal surface. The first hyperpolarizability, NBO analysis and molecular electrostatic potential results are also reported. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
