Calculations were carried out at the CAM-B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level on the geometry calculated at the same level. The contributions with percentage ≥15% of the total (−ω; ω, 0) value were considered.
b : stretching, δ: in-plane bending, τ: torsion.
cThe value in parentheses refers to the CAM-B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ (−ω; ω, 0) value at ħ ω = 0.06563 a.u.
dThe ratios are 0.46 and 0.91 in gas and water solution, respectively.
