The fundamental vibrational transitions were addressed by experimental FT-IR (4000-400 cm -1 ) and FT-Raman (4000-10 cm -1 ) techniques and density functional calculations at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311++G(df,pd) levels of theory. The 1 H, 13 C and DEPT 135 NMR spectra of studied compound were recorded in deuterated dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO -d6 ), and compared with computed data obtained by using gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The electronic absorption spectra in methanol and ethanol solution were evaluated in the range of 200-400 nm, and TD-DFT method was chosen for computational study. The spectroscopic and theoretical results were compared to the corresponding properties for monomer and dimer structures for the most stable conformer. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. Moreover, the thermodynamic and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties were evaluated. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.
