Abstract
Quantum chemistry calculations have been performed using Gaussian03 program to compute optimized geometry, harmonic vibrational frequency along with intensities in IR and Raman spectra at RHF/6-31++G** and B3LYP/6-31++G** levels for phenobarbitone (C12H12N2O3) in the ground state. The scaled harmonic vibrational frequencies have been compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. Theoretical vibrational spectra of the title compound were interpreted by means of potential energy distributions (PEDs) using MOLVIB program. A detailed interpretation of the infrared spectra of the title compound is reported. On the basis of the agreement between the calculated and observed results, the assignments of fundamental vibrational modes of phenobarbitone were examined and some assignments were proposed. The theoretical spectrograms for FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of the title compound have been constructed.
