| Sumario: | In this research, a combined study on structures and vibrational spectra of antiviral rimantadine have been performed using hybrid B3LYP/6–311++G∗∗ calculations and the scaled quantum force field (SQMFF) procedure. Harmonic force fields and scaled force constants of Free Base (FB), Cationic (CA) and Hydrochloride (HCl) species derived from the antiviral rimantadine have been calculated in gas phase and in aqueous solution using normal internal coordinates and scaling factors. Good correlations were acquired comparing the theoretical IR, Raman, 1H– 13C-NMR and UV spectra of three species with the analogous experimental ones, suggesting probably, the presence of all them in both phases. The main force constants of three species have evidenced lower values than the corresponding to antiviral amantadine. The ionic character of N1–H33⋯Cl36 bond of HCl species in aqueous solution evidence positive Mulliken charge on N1 atom indicating that this species is as CA one. Rimantadine presents higher solvation energies in water than other antiviral species, such as chloroquin, niclosamide, cidofovir and brincidofovir. The FB and HCl species of rimantadine are slightly less reactive than the corresponding to amantadine while the opposite is observed for the CA species. The predicted ECD spectra for the FB and CA species show positive Cotton effect different from the negative observed for the HCl one. These different behaviours of three species of rimantadine could probably explain the differences observed in the intensities of bands predicted in the electronic spectra of these species. |
