Publication Metadata only Structural and spectroscopic investigation on antioxidant dipeptide, L-Methionyl-L-Serine: A combined experimental and DFT study(Elsevier Science Bv, Po Box 211, 1000 AE Amsterdam, Netherlands, 2017-06-05) Kecel Gündüz, Serda; Bıçak, Bilge; Çelik, Sefa; Özel, Ayşen E.; AKYÜZ, SEVİM; 110526; 277135; 110147; 10127; 110745The focus of this study is to determine the conformational, structural and vibrational properties of Methionyl-Serine dipeptide (L-Methionyl-L-Serine, Met-Ser), a biological active molecule. To investigate their energetically preferred conformations, molecular mechanics methods were utilized to determine the optimal conformations of the 3402 different dihedral angle values of the backbone and side chains. It was found that the extended (e) backbone shape in the LB conformational range was the most stable LMethionyl-L-Serine dipeptide conformation, with 3.12 kcal/mol of energy. Density Functional Theory (DFT) was used to determine the optimized geometry, the vibrational wavenumbers and modes of the title dipeptide values, with 6-31G (d,p) and 6-311++G (d,p) basis sets. The potential energy distribution data was used to carry out the assignment of the bands. In addition, the vibrational spectra of the most stable conformer and its dimer form were determined and the obtained results were compared with the experimental IR and Raman spectra in the solid phase. To determine the presence of intramolecular charge transfer, molecular dipole moment, polarizability and hyperpolarizability, the Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), HOMO LUMO calculations, the linear polarizability (alpha) and the first order hyperpolarizability (fio) value analyses of the investigated molecule were carried out using the DFT with the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) basis set. This study aims to determine a relatively stable conformation of antioxidant dipeptide and to investigate the molecular geometry, molecular vibrations and hydrogen bonding interactions between monomeric and dimeric forms of Methiony-Serine dipeptide.

The geometry optimization, vibrational wavenumber and intensity calculations of free and coordinated 2,2′-bipyridine were carried out with the Gaussian03 program package by using Hartree–Fock (HF) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP functional and 6-31G (d,p) basis set. The total energy distributions (TED) of the vibrational modes were calculated by using Scaled Quantum Mechanical (SQM) analysis. Fundamentals were characterised by their total energy distributions. Coordination sensitive modes of 2,2′-bipyridine were determined.Publication Metadata only Molecular Structure and Vibrational Assignment of 2-,4-,6-Methylquinoline by Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Ab Initio Hartree-Fock (HF) Calculations(Elsevier, 2006-11-24) Özel, Ayşen E.; Kecel Gündüz, Serda; AKYÜZ, SEVİM; 110745; 110526; 10127The molecular geometry, the normal mode frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of 2-,4-,6-methylquinoline (2-,4-,6-mq) in the ground state were performed by HF and DFT/B3LYP levels of theory using the 6-31++G(d,p) basis set. Harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies were calculated. The complete assignments were performed on the basis of the total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanics (SQM) method by using parallel quantum mechanic solutions program. The general agreements between the observed and calculated frequencies are shown.Publication Metadata only Structural and vibrational study of primidone based on monomer and dimer calculations(Taylor & Francis Inc, 530 Walnut Street, Ste 850, Philadelphia, Pa 19106 USA, 2015-04-03) Çelik, Sefa; Kecel Gündüz, Serda; Özel, Ayşen E.; AKYÜZ, SEVİM; 110526; 110745; 10127Primidone (Mysoline), with the chemical formula 5-ethyl-5-phenyl-hexahydropyrimidine- 4,6-dione (C12H14N2O2), has been a valuable drug in the treatment of epilepsy. In the present work, the experimental IR and Raman spectra of solid phase primidone were recorded, and the results were compared with theoretical wavenumber values of monomer and dimer forms of the title molecule. Vibrational spectral simulations in the dimer form were carried out to improve the assignment of the bands in the solid phase experimental spectra. The possible stable conformers of free molecule were searched by means of torsion potential energy surfaces scan studies through two dihedral angles. The molecular geometries of the monomer and dimer forms of title molecule were optimized using DFT method at B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level of theory. Using PEDs determined the contributions of internal (stretching, bending, etc.) coordinates to each normal mode of vibration. Further, HOMO-LUMO energy gap and NBO properties of the investigated molecule in monomer and dimer forms were also calculated.
