The molecular vibrations of 2-mercapto pyrimidine (MP) and 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxy-5-nitroso pyrimidine (DAHNP) were investigated in polycrystalline sample, at room temperature, by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and FT-Raman spectroscopics. In parallel, ab initio and various density functional (DFT) methods were used to
