The infrared and near-infrared spectra of acetylacetone, acetylacetone-d8, and hexafluoroacetylacetone are characterized from experiment and computations at different levels. In the fundamental region, the intramolecular hydrogen bonded OH-stretching transition is clearly observed as a very broad band with substantial structure

The catalytic effect of explicit water molecules on the keto-enol tautomerism in a system of biological interest (enolpyruvate) has been investigated at the B3LYP/6-31++G** level by exploring the potential energy surface in the presence of 1 or 2 water molecules
Journal of molecular modeling, 18(6), 2409-2422 (2011-10-13)
Theoretical and spectroscopic studies of a series of monomeric and dimeric complexes formed through the modification of a zirconium butoxide precursor with acetylacetone and subsequent hydrolysis and/or condensation have been performed by applying DFT/B3LYP/6-31++G(d) and highly accurate RI-ADC(2) methods as

The photochemistry of the chelated enol form of acetylacetone (AcAc) was investigated by UV excitation of the S(2) state at 266 nm in parahydrogen matrices, complemented by experiments in neon and normal hydrogen matrices. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, combined with theoretical
A series of high-spin iron(II) β-diketonato complexes have been prepared and characterized with the intent of modeling the substrate-bound form of the enzyme acetylacetone dioxygenase (Dke1). The Dke1 active site features an Fe(II) center coordinated by three histidine residues in
