SYNTHESIS, SPECTROSCOPY, X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, AND DFT CALCULATIONS OF (E)-4-{[(2-HYDROXYPHENYL) IMINO]METHYL}PHENYL BENZENESULFONATE N. Özdemi1* and O. Dayan2

The title molecule is prepared by the Schiff base reaction. The structural properties of the compound are described using FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR, and absorption spectroscopies and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Some quantum chemical calculations of the compound (molecular structure, vibrational wavenumbers and gauge including atomic orbital, 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts) are executed using the density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Additionally, electronic spectra of the compound are computed using the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) method under the above conditions. A comparison of the experimental and theoretical findings reveals that a good correlation between them is acquired.

INTRODUCTION Schiff bases may be easily prepared by the reaction between primary amines and aldehydes/ketones. Schiff bases are continuously attracting much attention in the literature because of their biological activities, ligand behavior, and optical properties. For example, recent studies of Schiff bases have shown to exhibit anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, and antimicrobial activities [1-5]. Similarly, Schiff bases are good ligands, especially for transition metals and their complexes frequently used as catalysts, optical materials, etc. [6-9]. The attachment of a functional group to Schiff bases markedly affects the material properties in all of those examples. Among many Schiff bases known in the literature, the ones bearing sulfonate groups are rare. The molecules including sulfonate groups have recently attracted much attention because of promising properties for optical, biological, and catalytic applications [10-13]. In this work, we synthesized a new Schiff base with an arensulfonate group by the reaction of 4-formylphenyl benzenesulfonate and 2-aminophenol in ethanol, and characterized it by structural and spectroscopic techniques. Additionally, some parameters were theoretically investigated at the B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p) level to provide a deeper understanding of its chemical behavior.
