摘要:AbstractIn this study, a noveltrans-(1E,2E)-benzil-O,O-dimethylsulfonyl dioxime (BDMDO) monomer was preparedviaa one-step dehydrochlorination reaction. BDMDO was characterized by1H and13C NMR, UV–Vis, and FT-IR spectroscopies, CHN elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and TGA. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the BDMDO crystal structure was solved as atrans-isomer dioxime. The lattice structure was stabilized by two types of H-bonds and a sufficient number of interesting non-covalent supramolecular interactions such as the CH⋯HC bonds. Molecular electrostatic potential measurements and Hirschfeld surface analysis were performed to understand these interaction modes. Thecis–transisomerization in BDMDO as well as the structural, vibrational, NMR, highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital bandgap, density of states, and electronic properties were computed by the density functional theory and subsequently compared with available experimental1H and13C NMR, UV–Vis, and FT-IR spectral data. The thermogravimetric/derivative thermogravimetric behavior of BDMDO was determined experimentally under an open-room atmosphere.
