Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra of dimethylterephthalate (DMT), as microcrystalline powder, have been investigated. The vibrational spectra were calculated using the AM1 and PM3 semi empirical procedures, and the Møller-Plesset (MP2/DZV), and the Becke-Lee, Yang and Parr gradient-corrected correlation
