Abstract
The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of N-(adamantan-1-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-2-carbothioamide were recorded and investigated. The DFT/M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) method was used to compute the vibrational wavenumbers. The effect of solvents (water, carbon tetrachloride and chloroform) on the dipole moment and polarizability has been evaluated. UV-Vis spectrum of the title compound was recorded and compared with the theoretical spectrum calculated by TD-DFT approach. To investigate the movement of electrons within the system when excited, the difference of the excited and ground state densities has also been plotted. The molecular docking studies reveals that the investigated compound may exhibit HIV-1 Protease inhibitory activity. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
