Abstract
A combined experimental and theoretical study for Fourier transform infrared spectra for 2-(pyranoquinolin-4-yl)malononitrile (PQMN) compound has been made. In advance, we investigate many physical characteristics based on DFT/B3LYP using 6-311G(d,p) basis set such as optimum structure, vibrational frequencies, thermo-chemistry, overall dipole moment, HOMO/LUMO Bandgap, nuclear repulsive energy and ionization energies, electronic affinity and chemical potential, global electrophilicity index, global hardness and finally softness (zeta). Also, we studied the non-linear optical (NLO) properties of PQMN. Results emphasize both degeneracy and diamagnetic properties of PQMN. PQMN Frontiers' molecular orbitals (FMOs) split into two distinguished alpha (spin up arrow) and beta (spin down arrow) states with the same energy 3.7 eV, although its singlet spins state. Moreover, the calculated dipole moment (DM) value (13.3 Debye) for PQMN explains the mystery behind its reactive tendency with the nearby media. PQMN is a unique model for a degenerate diamagnetic semiconductor that can be easily used for optoelectronic manufactured devices such as solar cells and spintronic devices.
