magnesium oxide nanotubes of finite length are investigated by the density functional theory (dft) at the b3lyp/6-31g (d) level. the (6, 0) zigzag and (4, 4) armchair of mgo nanotubes were considered and nuclear magnetic resonance properties including isotropic and anisotropic chemical shielding parameters (csi and csa) were calculated for 25mg and 17o atoms of the optimized structures for the ...

Recently, we introduced a new density-functional theory ~DFT! approach for the calculation of NMR shielding constants. First, a hybrid DFT calculation ~using 5% exact exchange! is performed on the molecule to determine Kohn–Sham orbitals and their energies; second, the constants are determined as in nonhybrid DFT theory, that is, the paramagnetic contribution to the constants is calculated from...

DFT computations of various possible reaction pathways in asymmetric hydrogenation of methyl (Z-α)acetylaminocinnamate catalysed by Rh-TangPHOS complex revealed the clear preference of the dihydride pathway. This conclusion was explicitly confirmed by the structure of the monohydride intermediate intercepted in the low temperature NMR hydrogenation experiments. DFT analysis of the origin of ena...

Bis(acetoxy)iodobenzene and related acyloxy derivatives of hypervalent I(III) were studied by variable temperature solution-state ¹⁷O-NMR and DFT calculations. The ¹⁷O-NMR spectra reveal a dynamic process that interchanges the oxygen atoms of the acyloxy groups. For the first time, coalescence events could be detected for such compounds, allowing the determination of activation free energy data...

We compare the NMR indirect nuclear spin-spin coupling constants in strychnine calculated using density functional theory (DFT) with the semiempirical relativistic force field (RFF) method of Kutateladze and Mukhina (KM) (J. Org. Chem. 2015, 80, 10838-10848). DFT values significantly more accurate than those obtained by KM for their comparison with RFF values can be obtained, at a lower cost, b...

We report X-ray crystallographic and 19 F NMR studies of the G-protein RhoA complexed with MgF3- , GDP, and RhoGAP, which has the mutation Arg85'Ala. When combined with DFT calculations, these data permit the identification of changes in transition state (TS) properties. The X-ray data show how Tyr34 maintains solvent exclusion and the core H-bond network in the active site by relocating to rep...

A p-xylyl-based macrocycle L has been synthesized and its binding properties with halides have been investigated by (1)H NMR titrations, single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. As investigated by (1)H NMR titrations, the ligand preferentially binds a halide in a 1:2 binding mode, with the association constants (in log K2) of 2.82, 2.70, 2.28,...

compound (n,n-bis (salicylidene) 1,2-diaminophenylene) was prepared by condensation of ethanolsolution of 2-hydroxybanzaldehyde and 1,2-diaminophenylene. the compound was characterized by1h nmr, infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir) data and analytical data. the geometrical parameters andenergies have been obtained from density functional theory (dft) b3lyp method and hartree-fock (hf) method with 3-21...

This study represents an integrated approach towards understanding the vibrational, electronic, NMR, and structural aspects, and reactivity of 1-(4-chloro-phenyl)-3-phenyl-succinimide (CPPS). A detailed interpretation of the FT-IR, UV and NMR spectra were reported. The equilibrium geometry, bonding features, and harmonic vibrational frequencies have been investigated with the help of density fu...

A combination of charge density studies and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 1JNC coupling measurements supported by periodic functional theory (DFT) calculations is used to characterise the transition from an n–π* interaction bond formation between a nucleophilic nitrogen atom electrophilic sp2 carbon in series crystalline peri-substituted naphthalenes. As N⋅⋅⋅C distance reduces th...
