Halogen effect on structure and 13C NMR chemical shift of 3,6-disubstituted-N-alkyl carbazoles
2013
Structures of selected 3,6-dihalogeno-N-alkyl carbazole derivatives were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2pd) level of theory, and their 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) isotropic shieldings were predicted using density functional theory (DFT). The model compounds contained 9H, N-methyl and N-ethyl derivatives. The relativistic effect of Br and I atoms on nuclear shieldings was modeled using the spin–orbit zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA) method. Significant heavy atom shielding effects for the carbon atom directly bonded with Br and I were observed (~−10 and ~−30 ppm while the other carbon shifts were practically unaffected). The decreasing electronegativity of the haloge…
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‐NMe2) 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 N…
Sensitivity of noble gas NMR parameters to the heterocyclic ring proximity. Density functional theory studies of Ne–furan and Ar–furan complexes
2014
Theoretical modeling of noble gas interaction with furan as a simple heterocyclic ring was performed. The structures of neon–furan and argon–furan complexes were calculated at the MP2, M06-2X, CAM-B3LYP, APFD, and VSXC levels of theory using 6-311++G** basis set. The predicted 21Ne and 39Ar NMR chemical shifts for the Ne–furan and Ar–furan complexes calculated with pcS-3 and aug-pcS-3 basis sets were sensitive to the presence of the aromatic furan ring. Our results indicate a higher sensitivity of the neon and argon NMR probes than the previously reported 3He NMR spectroscopic parameters in studies of small heterocyclic rings containing the oxygen atom.
Convergence of nuclear magnetic shieldings and one‐bond 1J(11 B 1H) indirect spin–spin coupling constants in small boron molecules
2018
Self‐consistent field Hartree–Fock (SCF‐HF), density functional theory (B3LYP, KT1, KT2, and KT3), and coupled‐cluster calculations of the nuclear magnetic shielding constants of BH and BH3 molecules have been conducted to characterize the convergence of individual results obtained with correlation‐ and polarization‐consistent basis sets. The individual 11B and 1H NMR parameters were estimated in the complete basis set limit and compared with benchmark literature results. The SCF‐HF and density functional theory B3LYP predicted boron shieldings and shielding anisotropies of BH significantly differed from the results obtained by coupled‐cluster with single, double, and perturbative treatment…
Impact of the ΔPhe configuration on the Boc-Gly-ΔPhe-NHMe conformation: experiment and theory
2019
Conformational propensities of N-t-butoxycarbonyl-glycine-(E/Z)-dehydrophenylalanine N′-methylamides (Boc-Gly-(E/Z)-ΔPhe-NHMe) in chloroform were investigated by NMR and IR techniques. The low-temperature crystal structure of the E isomer was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the experimental data were elaborated by theoretical calculations using DFT (B3LYP, M06-2X) and MP2 approaches. The β-turn tendencies for both isomers were determined in the gas phase and in the presence of solvent. The obtained results reveal that the configuration of ΔPhe residue significantly affects the conformations of the studied dehydropeptides. The tendency to adopt β-turn conformations is sign…
Modeling 21Ne NMR parameters for carbon nanosystems
2013
The potential of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique in probing the structure of porous systems including carbon nanostructures filled with inert gases is analysed theoretically using accurate calculations of neon (21Ne) nuclear magnetic shieldings. The CBS estimates of 21Ne NMR parameters were performed for single atom, its dimer and neon interacting with acetylene, ethylene and 1,3-cyclopentadiene. Several levels of theory including restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF), Møller-Plesset perturbation theory to the second order (MP2), density functional theory (DFT) with van Voorhis and Scuseria's t-dependent gradient-corrected correlation functional (VSXC), coupled cluster with single and do…
Theoretical prediction of structural, vibrational and NMR parameters of plastic optical fiber (POF) material precursors. Cis and trans perhydro- and …
2014
Abstract Density functional theory (DFT) prediction of cis and trans perhydro- and perfluoro-2-methylene-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolanes structure, supported by vibrational analysis and calculation of multinuclear isotropic nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) shieldings and indirect spin–spin couplings (SSCCs) was performed. The performance of the used methodology was verified on 1,3-dioxolane selected as model compound. The structures of hydrogenated and fluorinated monomers of POF materials were calculated using B3LYP and BLYP density functionals combined with 6-311 ++ G(3df,2pd) basis set. The BLYP/6-311++G(3df,2pd) level of theory was suggested for vibrational analysis. Gauge independent atomi…

2015
Abstract Density functional theory (DFT) studies on adsorption of several gaseous homo- and hetero-diatomic molecules (AB) including H2, O2, N2, NO and CO on external surface of H-capped pristine armchair (5, 5) single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) were conducted. Structures of C70H10 and the corresponding C70H10–AB adducts were fully optimized at the B3LYP/6-311G* level of theory. Calculated HOMO/LUMO energy gaps (Eg), 13C NMR chemical shifts and IR/Raman parameters were analyzed and critically compared with available experimental data. Significant changes of carbon NMR atom chemical shifts (up to −100 ppm) and shielding anisotropies (up to −180 ppm) at sites of addition were observed. Fu…
Toward engineering efficient peptidomimetics. Screening conformational landscape of two modified dehydroaminoacids
2013
Effective peptidomimetics should posses structural rigidity and appropriate interaction pattern leading to potential spatial and electronic matching to the target receptor site. Rational design of such small bioactive molecules could push chemical synthesis and molecular modeling toward faster progress in medicinal chemistry. Conformational properties of N-t-butoxycarbonyl-glycine-(E/Z)-dehydrophenylalanine N′,N′-dimethylamides (Boc-Gly-(E/Z)-ΔPhe-NMe2) in chloroform were studied by NMR and IR spectroscopy. The experimental findings were supported by extensive calculations at DFT(B3LYP, M06-2X) and MP2 levels of theory and the β-turn tendency for both isomers of the studied dipeptide were d…
