The IR spectra of uracil and its derivatives in the carbonyl region are strikingly complex, and extremely sensitive to substitution, particularly at ring nitrogens. The IR spectra of uracil, 1,3-di-deuterouracil, 1-methyluracil, 3-methyluracil and 1,3-dimethyluracil were studied exptl. by low temperature (12 K) matrix isolation IR spectroscopic techniques, and theor. by DFT/B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) quantum mech. methods. Particular attention is focused on the carbonyl region and on the mech. coupling of the C2= and C4=O stretching vibrations with each other, with the N1H and N3H bending motions, and with other motions. This coupling plays a crucial role in determining the frequencies and intensities of the normal modes that determine the spectral patterns in the IR spectrum in the carbonyl region. The extreme sensitivity of the frequencies, intensities and spectral pattern in the carbonyl region to isotopic substitution and methylation (and to the intermol. interactions, particularly H bonding) is attributed, to a large extent, to changes in this coupling. The DFT calculations appear to give quite accurate values for the force constants and allow separation of simple mass effects and chem. substituent effects on the coupling. Fermi resonance in the carbonyl region is an important factor contributing to the observed complexity of this spectral region. Examination of this effect making use of the visualization of normal modes of vibration provides rules for when it may be expected to be important.
