Aromatic ring-containing amide/urea material, possibly with methacrylate components
Library direction- The amide I, II, and A band pattern is directly supported by the related reference on gelatin and chitosan films [5], where 1653 cm⁻¹ is assigned to Amide I (C=O stretch), 1552 cm⁻¹ to Amide II (N–H bend), and 3310 cm⁻¹ to Amide A (N–H stretch).
- The library top‑15 candidates cluster around aromatic and aliphatic ureas (phenylurea, cyclohexylurea) as well as poly(acrylamide) and poly(methylacrylamide), providing a strong library‑based direction toward amide/urea chemistry with ring components.
- The amide I band at 1653 cm⁻¹ (C=O stretch), amide II at 1552 cm⁻¹ (N–H bend coupled with C–N stretch), and the broad N–H stretching absorption centred near 3310 and 3424 cm⁻¹ form a characteristic amide pattern that closely matches gelatin films [5].
The library’s top hit, tert‑butylurea, is an aliphatic molecule that does not account for the aromatic bands observed at 1514, 1608, and 694 cm⁻¹, so a pure tert‑butylurea identification cannot be upheld.
