RESUMO
Infrared, Raman and SERS spectra of O,S-Dimethyl phosphoramidothioate, metamidophos, MAP, have been recorded. Density Functional Theory, DFT, with the B3LYP functional was used for the optimization of the ground state geometry and simulation of the infrared and Raman spectra of this molecule. Calculated geometrical parameters fit very well with the experimental ones. Combining the recorded data, the DFT results and a Normal Coordinate Analysis based on a scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) force field approach, a complete vibrational assignment was made for the first time. The comparison of SERS spectra obtained by using colloidal silver nanoparticles, with the corresponding Raman spectrum reveals enhancement and shifts in bands as well as information about the orientation of MAP on the nm-sized metal structures and the importance of the S atom on the SERS effect. DFT modelling of the SERS effect and Molecular Electrostatic Potentials (MEP) confirms the experimental information.

This paper reports a DFT modelling of SERS spectra for benzene and benzonitrile on the basis of a simple noncoordinate substrate-adsorbate model. Assignment of normal modes was obtained from internal force constants and potential energy distribution matrices and used to identify, according the SERS selection rules, the orientation of the optimized molecules on the metallic surface. Calculated band enhancements are in good agreement with experimental observations. The optimized geometry parameters of the molecule-Ag system, changes of HOMO-LUMO energies are discussed to give insight in the different SERS mechanisms for both molecules.

The SERS modelling of o-, m-, and p-methoxybenzonitrile has been performed following the same methodology that in Part I. Optimized structure obtained from DFT calculations in a B3LYP-LANL2DZ level of calculation shows different tilted positions for the isomers under study. From correlations obtained by comparison of Raman and SERS spectra concerning geometrical parameters, frequency shifting, change in band intensity, and force constants is possible to give insight about the different effect of the metal surface on these molecules and the structural reasons of this behaviour. Frontier orbital analysis gives further information and reveals a ligand to metal charge transfer mechanism for all isomers, as well as its relative importance.
