The dianion of [2.2.2]paracyclophene; a 20 π-perimeter species?
1986
Abstract A new synthesis of [2.2.2]paracyclophene (1) is presented on reduction,(1) forms a stable dianion which is neither diatropic. nor paratropic. The apparent high symmetry of the dianion and the observed NMR chemical shifts are best explained by a rapid interconversion of a series of C 2-conformers.
NMR chemical shift calculations within local correlation methods: the GIAO-LMP2 approach
2000
A scheme for the calculation of NMR chemical shifts using local second-order Moller–Plesset (LMP2) perturbation theory together with gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs) is presented. Test calculations on the basis of a preliminary implementation within a conventional GIAO-MP2 code show that the deviations between GIAO-LMP2 and GIAO-MP2 are small, e.g., for 13C typically less than 1 ppm, and that the GIAO-LMP2 approach holds great promise for application to larger molecules.
1H,13C and19F NMR spectroscopy of polyfluorinated ureas. Correlations involving NMR chemical shifts and electronic substituent effects
2005
Seventeen N-(mono-, di-, tri-, tetra- and penta-fluorophenyl)-N′-(3-nitrophenyl)ureas were prepared and characterized. Complete assignment of their 1H, 13C and 19F NMR data was undertaken and the correlation of the chemical shifts of the ureido protons with field-inductive and mesomeric electronic substituent parameters was studied using the Swain–Lupton model. The best correlations were obtained when the study was limited to certain substitution patterns, e.g. non-ortho, mono-ortho- and di-ortho-fluorinated ureas, which reveal probable changes in conformations caused by the degree of ortho fluorination at the phenyl ring. Additionally, there is an excellent linear cross-correlation between…
Substituent Effect in 2-Benzoylmethylenequinoline Difluoroborates Exhibiting Through-Space Couplings. Multinuclear Magnetic Resonance, X-ray Diffract…
2012
The series of nine 2-benzoylmethylenequinoline difluoroborates have been synthesized and characterized by multinuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and computational methods. The through-space spin-spin couplings between (19)F and (1)H/(13)C nuclei have been observed in solution. The NMR chemical shifts have been correlated to the Hammett substituent constants. The crystal structures of six compounds have been solved by XRD. For two derivatives the X-ray wave function refinement was performed to evaluate the character of bonds in the NBF(2)O moiety by topological and integrated bond descriptors.
Experimental and theoretical NMR and IR studies of the side-chain orientation effects on the backbone conformation of dehydrophenylalanine residue
2011
Conformation of N-acetyl-(E)-dehydrophenylalanine N', N'-dimethylamide (Ac-(E)-ΔPhe-NMe(2)) in solution, a member of (E)-α, β-dehydroamino acids, was studied by NMR and infrared spectroscopy and the results were compared with those obtained for (Z) isomer. To support the spectroscopic interpretation, the Φ, Ψ potential energy surfaces were calculated at the MP2/6-31 + G(d,p) level of theory in chloroform solution modeled by the self-consistent reaction field-polarizable continuum model method. All minima were fully optimized by the MP2 method and their relative stabilities were analyzed in terms of π-conjugation, internal H-bonds and dipole interactions between carbonyl groups. The obtained…
Nuclear magnetic shielding constants in the CC2 model
1997
Abstract Test calculations of nuclear magnetic shielding constants in the CC2 model are performed using the gauge-including atomic orbital approach. Absolute shielding constants are reported for reprsentative first-row hydrides, a few multiply bonded molecules and some challenging cases. The performance of CC2 is analyzed by comparison with experimental data and results from calculations employing more sophisticated treatments of electron correlation. In most cases, CC2 shieldings and chemical shifts are close to those obtained at second-order perturbation theory, despite the fact that the CC2 model includes an approximate treatment of orbital relaxation effects at the correlated level.
Electron correlation effects on the calculated 13C NMR spectra of vinyl cations
1997
Abstract A study of calculated 13C NMR chemical shifts in vinyl cations is presented. The sensitivity of predicted isotropic shifts to correlation, basis set and geometry effects is explored. In order to obtain accurate estimates that are reasonably well converged with respect to further improvements in theory, it appears that the CCSD(T) method must be used with a basis of triple-zeta plus polarization quality on the carbon atoms. Second-order many-body perturbation theory performs adequately for all carbons except for that bearing the formal positive charge, while the self-consistent field approximation cannot be relied upon to predict even the correct qualitative ordering in the spectrum…
1H nmr chemical shifts of [14]annulenes and their dianion salts
1987
Abstract The bridged (14]annulene 2 was reduced into its dianion and the structure of the dianion salt was proven by chemical and spectroscopic means. The 1H NMR spectroscopic properties of 2 are similar to those of the structurally related bridged [14]annulene 1 , whereas the corresponding dianions 2 2- and 1 2- are strikingly different. The geometries of 1 and 2 and their dianions were studied by means of a modified π-SCF force field approach. Almost planar perimeters without significant bond length alternation are obtained for the neutral annulenes 1 and 2 , whereas their dianions are characterized by structures with reduced symmetry. The 1H chemical shifts of the bridged [14]annulenes a…
Local aromaticity mapping in the vicinity of planar and nonplanar molecules
2019
We report on nucleus-independent magnetic shielding (NICS) scans over the centers of six- and five-membered rings in selected metal phthalocyanines (MPc) and fullerene C60 for more accurate characterization of local aromaticity in these compounds. Detailed tests were conducted on model aromatic molecules including benzene, pyrrole, indole, isoindole, and carbazole and subsequently applied to H2 Pc, ZnPc, Al(OH)Pc, and CuPc. Similar behavior of three selected magnetic probes, Bq, 3 He, and 7 Li+ , approaching perpendicularly the ring centers, was observed. For better visualization of shielding zone over the centers of aromatic rings, we introduced a simple mathematical procedure: the first a…
Pairwise effects of chlorine substituents on the13C NMR chemical shifts of dichlorobicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes (norbornanes)
1984
The 13C NMR spectra of nine dichlorinated bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes (norbornanes) have been measured and assigned. The pairwise effects of chlorine substituents which cause deviations from the additivity of single-substituent effects were investigated and are discussed. The largest effect found is the high-field shift of carbons bearing vicinal cis substituents. In the case of geminal substitution deviations from additivity were found to be to low field and large in the γ, smaller in the β and negligible in the α chemical shifts. The observed deviations for 1,3-disubstituted cases vary from −3.2 to +1.1 ppm at different carbons, allowing no simple explanation. Replacement of α-hydrogen in a di…
