pubmed-article:17540615 | pubmed:abstractText | Vibrational frequencies and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) 13C NMR and 1H NMR chemical shift values of 2,6 distyrylpyridine (C21H17N) in the ground state have been calculated by using the Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (B3LYP) with 6-31G(d) basis set. These methods are proposed as a tool to be applied in the structural characterization of 2,6 distyrylpyridine (C21H17N). The title compound has C2v point group, thus providing useful support in the interpretation of experimental IR data. In addition, obtained results were related to the linear correlation plot of experimental 13C NMR, 1H NMR chemical shifts values and IR data. | lld:pubmed |
