Considering O-H group as a point mass, the vibrational spectrum of 2, 6 dibromo Phenol was analyzed and all the normal modes of vibrations were identified by assuming C2v symmetry for the molecule with Z- axis passing through Cring–O bond and y axis perpendicular to the molecule. Normal coordinate analysis was performed to compute the thermo dynamical functions using statistical methods. Variations of thermodynamic functions with temperature were plotted and trend discussed.
