Abstract:The doubly hydrogen-bonded dimer of pyrrolidinone (γ-lactam) is used as a benchmark for the effect of conjugation on the strength and extent of hydrogen-bonding of the compounds Oxindole and Isoxindole. The experimental portion of this project consists of collecting the FTIR spectrum of γ-lactam, Oxindole and Isoxindole in CCl4. The concentrations and temperatures were varied to determine the thermodynamic properties of ∆Hd, ∆Sd and Kd. In addition, the spectroscopic parameters of the difference of the monomer… Show more
