The infrared spectra (3200 to 50 cm−1) of gaseous and solid and Raman spectra (3200 to 10 cm−1) of the liquid and solid N-methylpropargyl amine (4-aza-1-pentyne), HCCCH2N(CH3)H, have been recorded. All three possible conformers, i.e., methyl group (Me-trans) hydrogen atom (H-trans), and lone pair (LP-trans) trans to the ethynyl group, have been identified in the fluid phase with only the conformer with the LP-trans remaining in the solid. Variable temperature (−105 to −150 °C) studies of the infrared spectra of the sample dissolved in liquid krypton have been carried out. From these data the enthalpy difference has been determined to be 360 ± 72 cm−1 (4.31 ± 0.86 kJ mol−1), between the most stable LP-trans conformer and the second most stable Me-trans rotamer. An enthalpy difference of 100 ± 20 cm−1 is estimated between the Me-trans form and the least stable H-trans conformer. These results are in reasonable agreement with the ab initio predictions at all levels of calculations. It is estimated that there is only 8% of the H-trans form and 14% of the Me-trans conformer present at ambient temperature. A complete vibration assignment is proposed for the LP-trans conformer which is based on infrared band contours, infrared intensities, Raman activities, and group frequencies, which is supported by normal coordinate calculations utilizing the force constants from ab initio MP2/6-31G(d) and DFT(B3LYP) calculations. Proposed assignments are also made for several of the fundamentals of the other two conformers. The conformational stabilities, barriers to internal rotation, and fundamental vibrational frequencies which have been determined experimentally are compared to those obtained from ab initio calculations. Utilizing previously reported microwave rotational constants for two isotopomers of the LP-trans rotamer along with ab initio predicted structural values, r0 parameters have been obtained for this conformer. The results are discussed and compare to the corresponding properties of some similar molecules.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
