Abstract
In this work, we will report a combined experimental and theoretical study on molecular and vibrational structure of 3,4-dimethoxyaniline (3,4-DMA). The Fourier transform infrared and Fourier transform Raman spectra of 3,4-DMA was recorded in the solid phase. The optimized geometry was calculated by HF and B3LYP methods using 6-31G(d,p) and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets. The harmonic vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities, Raman scattering activities and the thermodynamic functions of the title compound were performed at and HF/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theories. The scaled theoretical wavenumber showed very good agreement with the experimental values. A detailed interpretation of the infrared and Raman spectra of 3,4-DMA was reported. The theoretical spectrograms for IR and Raman spectra of the title molecule have been constructed.
