This study aims to identify the conformational and spectroscopic characteristics of 2,4-xylyl isothiocyanate (C9H9NS) compound via experimental and computational methods. To accomplish this, density functional theory (DFT), with the B3LYP functional was used to determine ground state conformation, vibrational wavenumbers and also isotropic chemical shifts of the title molecule. Experimentally, vibrational features of the compound were evaluated by FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopic analysis in the solid phase. On the basis of these studies, the conformational and spectroscopic behaviors of 2,4-xylyl isothiocyanate were interpreted. The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers as well as their intensities were computed, and a good correlation between experimental and scaled calculated wavenumbers was observed. The polarizability, first hyperpolarizability and dipole moment values of 2,4-xylyl isothiocyanate were calculated at the same level of theory and basis set. The results show that 2,4-xylyl isothiocyanate molecule possesses nonlinear optical (NLO) behavior with non-zero values. Stability of the molecule arising from hyper-conjugative interactions and charge delocalization was analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.

Gabapentin (GP), structurally related to the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), mimics the activity of GABA and is also widely used in neurology for the treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain. It exists in zwitterionic form in solid state. The present communication deals with the quantum chemical calculations of energies, geometrical structure and vibrational wavenumbers of GP using density functional (DFT/B3LYP) method with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. In view of the fact that amino acids exist as zwitterions as well as in the neutral form depending on the environment (solvent, pH, etc.), molecular properties of both the zwitterionic and neutral form of GP have been analyzed. The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers as well as their intensities were calculated and compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. The fundamental assignments were done on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) method. The electric dipole moment, polarizability and the first hyperpolarizability values of the GP have been calculated at the same level of theory and basis set. The nonlinear optical (NLO) behavior of zwitterionic and neutral form has been compared. Stability of the molecule arising from hyper-conjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital analysis. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrum of the title molecule has also been calculated using TD-DFT method. The thermodynamic properties of both the zwitterionic and neutral form of GP at different temperatures have been calculated.
