A Raman and IR study of the biomolecule 6-chlorouracil was carried out in the solid state. The unit cell found in the crystal was simulated as a tetramer form by density functional calculations. Specific scale factors and scaling equations deduced from uracil molecule were employed in the predicted wavenumbers of 6-chlorouracil. The scaled wavenumbers were used in the reassignment of the IR and Raman experimental bands. Good reproduction of the experimental wavenumbers is obtained and the % error is very small in the majority of cases. A comparison between the molecular structure and charge distribution of 6-chlorouracil and 5-chlorouracil molecules was presented. The effect of the hydration with the PCM model in the molecular structure and charges was discussed. The optimum tautomers of 6-chlorouracil were optimized and analyzed. Six of them were related to those of uracil molecule. The effect of …
