The present paper undertakes the study of a new organic/inorganic hybrid compound [2-CH3C6H4NH3]HSO4.H2O characterized by the X-ray diffraction, TG-DTA, IR and Raman spectroscopy accomplished with DFT calculation. It is crystallized in the monoclinic system with the centrosymmetric space group P 21/c, with a = 9.445 (5) A, b = 10.499 A, c = 10.073 A, β = 90.627 (5)° and Z = 4. The atomic arrangement can be described as inorganic layers built by infinite chains, parallel to the (a c) planes between which the organic cations are inserted. In this atomic arrangement, hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions between the different species have an important role in the tri-dimensional network cohesion. Besides, the X-ray powder diffraction of the title compound confirms the existence of only one phase at room temperature. The thermal decomposition of precursors studied by thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), the differential thermal analysis (DTA) and the temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction, show crystalline anhydrous compounds upon dehydration. DFT/BHHLYP calculations were performed, using the DZV (d,p) basis set, to determine the harmonic frequencies of the vibrational modes of an optimized cluster structure. The calculated modes were animated using the Molden graphical package to give tentative assignments of the observed IR and Raman spectra. |
