Abstract
N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine, also known as Salophen, is
a Schiff base which crystallizes in monoclinic structure and space group
P2(1/c), with four molecules per unit cell. It has been intensely
studied in last decades because of its excellent properties with many
potential applications. In the present study, the structural and
vibrational properties of the Salophen were investigated combining
scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), Raman, infrared, nuclear magnetic
resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as experimental techniques and theoretical
calculation based on density functional theory (OFT). The interpretation
of the vibrational modes was carried out by means of potential energy
distribution (PED). The theoretical results are in good agreement with
experimental ones. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
