In this paper, we report first, the synthesis and characterisation of three Schiff bases derived from histamine by condensation of histamine with various aldehydes. Then, we present a detailed DFT study based on B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) of geometrical structures and electronic properties of these compounds. The study was extended to the HOMO-LUMO analysis to calculate the energy gap (Δ), Ionisation potential (I), Electron Affinity (A), Global Hardness (η), Chemical Potential (μ), Electrophilicity (ω), Electronegativity (χ) and Polarisability (α). The calculated HOMO and LUMO energy reveals that the charge transfers occurring within the molecule. On the basis of vibration analyses, the thermodynamic properties of the titles compound were also calculated. |
