Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 8(2), 413-418 (2010-01-13)
The one-electron reduction chemistry of the antituberculosis drug PA-824, together with a series of closely related compounds, has been investigated in irradiated anaerobic propan-2-ol solution. The protic solvent, of low dielectric constant, was chosen to mimic the environment of a

A zero-order normal coordinate analysis of both the in-plane and out-of-plane vibrations was made for 2-chloro, 6-fluorobenzonitrile, s-trichlorobenzonitrile, p- and m-methoxybenzonitriles and m-nitrobenzonitrile, transferring the force constants from our earlier work. The observed and calculated frequencies agree with an average
