Espectro infravermelho e análise conformacional do composto 3-fenil-2-oxo-1,2,3-oxatiazolidina

The infrared (IR) spectra of the four distict conformers located on the multidimensional potential energy surface (PES) for the 3-phenyl-1,2,3-oxathiazolidine 2-oxide compound have been calculated using the semiempirical quantum-mechanical method PM3. The band spectra are reported and compared directly with the experimental spectrum. The IR intensities are shown to be much more sensitive to conformational changes than the vibrational frequencies and so, the theoretical analysis of the IR spectrum can be used as a tool for helping in the elucidation of the structure of heterocyclic compounds.
