signed to the ring CH2 rocking motions. As stated by Spell, [67] this is
one of the most useful bands for detecting the presence of di-substi-

The cyclohexene ring fragment is a sterically strained system. Pre-
sumably, this is the reason for elongation of skeletal CAC bonds,
C1AC2, C2AC3, C3AC4, C5AC6, C6AC1. The CAC bond lengths in the
five member ring (C5AC16, C4AC13) are elongated to a lesser extent.
These may be explained by change of the substitution pattern in
the nitrogen containing five member ring as reported by Tarabara
et al. [47].

1161, 1099, 903, 743 cmꢂ1 theoretically. Two absorptions charac-
teristic for the piperazine ring, at 1130 and 1168 cmꢂ1 and assigned
for the CAN stretching vibrational modes were observed by da Silva
et al. [68]. The shift in the wavenumber may be attributed to the
bulky groups attached to the piperazine ring. The CAC stretching
vibrations in the piperazine ring were reported at 972, 903 cmꢂ1
[66]. For the title compound these vibrations are observed at
1031, 926 cmꢂ1 theoretically, at 936 cmꢂ1 in IR and at 1021,

angles C6AC5AC16 and C3AC4AC13 by 118.7° and 119.2° which are
almost equal as reported in the literature [47]. The conjugation in
the imido group is essentially disturbed; the torsion angles C13
