Abstract:Raman and surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) spectra of (N-methyl-3-phenyl-3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)propane-1-amine hydrochloride, fluoxetine, have been recorded. Density functional theory with the B3LYP functional was used for optimization of the ground state geometry, calculation of the Raman normal modes of this molecule and the modelling of the SERS effect. Calculated geometrical parameters of fluoxetine fit well with the experimental ones. Based on the recorded data, the DFT results and a normal coordinat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
