Raman Spectra of 1,2,4-Triazole-3-carboxylate Solution

Raman spectra of 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylate (TC- anion) and its ring-deprotonated deriva- tive (dpTC2- dianion) in aqueous solutions were measured respectively. The density func- tional theory calculations were performed using MN15 functional and PCM solvent model to investigate their structures, as well as the vibrational frequencies and Raman intensi- ties. With the aid of the calculated spectra, all the observed Raman bands of dpTC2- were clearly assigned, with taking into account the deuteration shifts. Moreover, various protonic tautomers of TC- anion were compared in the present theoretical calculations, and 2H- tautomer was found more stable. The experimental Raman spectrum of TC- solution was roughly consistent with the calculated spectrum of the monomeric 2H-tautomer of TC-, but some splits existed for a few bands when compared to the calculated spectra, which might be contributed by the hydrogen-bonding dimers of TC-.
