In this work, we report a complete analysis by theoretical and spectroscopic methods of the short-time behaviour 4-(dimethylamino)benzonitrile (DMABN) in gas phase as well cyclohexane, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, water solution, after excitation to La state. The properties DMABN were investigated experimentally using UV absorption fluorescence emission spectroscopy. computational study was developed at different electronic structure levels Polarisable Continuum Model (PCM) explicit...
The energetic viability of the previously proposed biogenetic pathway for formation two unique monoterpenoid indole alkaloids, voacafricine A and B, which are present in fruits Voacanga africana, was investigated using density functional theory computations. results these calculations indicate that not only is suggested energetically viable but also an alternative biosynthetic precursor likely.
