Abstract:
Vibrational and electronic spectral measurements were performed for 3-(2-chloro-1,3-thiazol-5-ylmethyl)-5-methyl-1,3,5-oxadiazinan-4-ylidene(nitro) amine (thiamethoxam). Optimized geometrical structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies were calculated with ab initio RHF and DFT (B3LYP, CAMB3LYP, M06 and PBE1PBE) methods with 6-311++G (d, p) basis set. Complete assignments of the observed spectra were proposed. The absorption spectra of the compound were computed in gas-phase using TD-B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) approach and H2O solution using PCM-TD-B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) approach. The calculated results matched well with the experimental values. Temperature dependence of thermodynamic parameters in the range of 100-1000 K were determined. The bond orbital occupancies, contribution from parent natural bond orbital (NBO), the natural atomic hybrids was discussed.
