Synthesis, Spectroscopic Properties, and Quantum Mechanical Study of 5-Oxo-1-phenyl-4-(piperidin-1-ylmethyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic Acid

The spectroscopic properties of 5-oxo-1-phenyl-4-(piperidin-1-ylmethyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid were investigated using FT-IR, NMR, and UV techniques and quantum chemical methods at different levels of theory. The other properties such as Mulliken charges, HOMO and LUMO energies, thermodynamic parameters, molecular electrostatic potential, intermolecular interactions, dipole moment, polarizability, and first-order polarizability were also simulated.
