Abstract

Objective: This study presents the quantum chemical calculations of 4-(Chloromethy)-7-methoxycoumarin (1) and 4-(Chloromethy)-7-methylcoumarin (2).

Material and Methods: The solid phase FT-IR spectra of compounds 1 and 2 have been recorded in the region 4000–500 cm^-1. The molecular geometry, vibrational frequency of compounds 1 and 2 in the ground state have been calculated by utilizing the density functional method (DFT/B3LYP) with the 6-311G+ (d, p) basis set. The calculated vibrational frequencies are compared with experimental obtained by FT-IR spectra. On the other hand, frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) and molecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) of compounds 1 and 2 were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311G+ (d, p) level of theory.

Results: With the aid of the theoretical calculations, the vibrational frequencies are precisely assigned to their molecular structure.

Conclusion: The theoretical and experimental results support each other.
