Abstract
FT-Raman and IR spectra of the nonlinear optic (NLO) crystal, acetoacetanilide have been recorded and analyzed. The detailed interpretation of the vibrational spectra has been carried out with the aid of normal coordinate analysis (NCA) following the scaled quantum mechanical force field methodology. The various intramolecular interactions that is responsible for the stabilization of the molecule was revealed by natural bond orbital analysis. The Kurtz and Perry powder reflection technique appeared to be very effective in studies of second-order nonlinear optical properties of the molecule.
