Abstract
The title molecules, N-(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-1H-3-(2H)-pyrazolyl)4-nitrobenzamide (C18H16N4O4·H2O) (I) and 2,2-dimethyl-3-(4-nitrobenzoyl)-5-(phenylamino)-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiyadiazole (C17H16N4O3S) (II), were prepared and characterised by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, infrared spectroscopy (IR) and structural X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The molecular geometries, vibrational frequencies of the title compounds in the ground state have been calculated by using the density functional theory (DFT) method with 6-31G(d) basis set, and compared with the experimental data. The calculated results showed that the optimised geometries from the DFT method agree with the X-ray structures well for both compounds. Theoretical calculations of harmonic vibration frequencies are in good agreement with experimental results. To determine conformational flexibility, the molecular energy profiles of the title compounds were obtained. Besides, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) analysis and thermodynamic properties of the title compounds were investigated by theoretical calculations.
