Experimental and Quantum Chemical Calculations of 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrobenzo[b]Thiophene-3-Carbonitrile

Vibrational frequencies of 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrobenzo[b]Thiophene-3-Carbonitrile were calculated using density functional (DFT/B3YLP) method with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set by Gaussian 09. The assignments of the vibrational frequencies have been done by potential energy distribution analysis, using VEDA 4 software. The density functional theory and time dependent density functional theory methods have been used to study the electronic properties of 2-Amino-4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrobenzo[b]Thiophene-3-Carbonitrile. Isotropic chemical shifts were calculated using the gauge-invariant atomic orbital method. All computed spectroscopic properties were compared with experimental ones. The simulated spectra of the molecule show excellent agreement with the experimental spectra.
