Designing Foldamer–Foldamer Interactions in Solution: The Roles of Helix Length and Terminus Functionality in Promoting the Self‐Association of Aminoisobutyric Acid Oligomers

The biological activity of antibiotic peptaibols has been linked to their ability to aggregate, but the structure–activity relationship for aggregation is not well understood. Herein, we report a systematic study of a class of synthetic helical oligomer (foldamer) composed of aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) residues, which mimic the folding behavior of peptaibols. NMR spectroscopic analysis was used to quantify the dimerization constants in solution, which showed hydrogen‐bond donors at the N terminus promoted aggregation more effectively than similar modifications at the C terminus. Elongation of the peptide chain also favored aggregation. The geometry of aggregation in solution was investigated by means of titrations with [D₆]DMSO and 2D NOE NMR spectroscopy, which allowed the NH protons most involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonds in solution to be identified. X‐ray crystallography studies of two oligomers allowed a comparison of the inter‐ and intramolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions in the solid state and in solution and gave further insight into the geometry of foldamer–foldamer interactions. These solution‐based and solid‐state studies indicated that the preferred geometry for aggregation is through head‐to‐tail interactions between the N and C termini of adjacent Aib oligomers.     

Hydrogen Bonds, Tautomers, and Conformation in 2-Hydroxyphenyl 2-hydroxy-2-(β-naphthyl)vinyl Ketone

Single crystal X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy have been used to study the conformation of 2-hydroxyphenyl 2-hydroxy-2-(-naphthyl)vinyl ketone in solid state. It was found that one of the two possible enol tautomeric forms is stabilized in the crystal. The 1-hydroxy-3-oxo-1,3-propenylene moiety, O=C—CH=C—OH, shows a strong intramolecular H bond with a definite character of reasonance-assisted hydrogen bond in spite of being in competition with ring intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The comparison of the present results with solution NMR data indicates that the molecular geometry in solid state and in solution are similar.     

Naryl-substituted anthranilamides with intramolecular hydrogen bonds

Hydrogen bonding interaction as one type of non-covalent force has proven itself to be highly efficient for constructing structurally unique artificial secondary structures. Here, the structure of N_aryl-substituted anthranilamide in solution is demonstrated by various NMR technique, the intramolecular hydrogen bonds between amide attached to arylamine of the same ring is proposed, which is supported by its crystal structure in the solid phase. The substituent on the nitrogen atom of arylamine plays an important role in forming the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The chemical shift of the N_aryl-H downfield changes obviously, due to the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds and the deshielding effect of oxygen, and the neighboring C–H is activated and shows downfield protonic signal too. The presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds probably provides the explanation for the transformation from N_aryl-substituted anthranilamide to imine, which could be converted into 2-aryl quinazolinone finally.     

Molecular hydrogen tweezers: structure and mechanisms by neutron diffraction, NMR, and deuterium labeling studies in solid and solution

The mechanism of reversible hydrogen activation by ansa-aminoboranes, 1-N-TMPH-CH(2)-2-[HB(C(6)F(5))(2)]C(6)H(4) (NHHB), was studied by neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric mass-spectroscopic experiments in the solid state as well as with NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy in solution. The structure of the ansa-ammonium borate NHHB was determined by neutron scattering, revealing a short N-H···H-B dihydrogen bond of 1.67 ?. Moreover, this intramolecular H-H distance was determined in solution to be also 1.6-1.8 ? by (1)H NMR spectroscopic T(1) relaxation and 1D NOE measurements. The X-ray B-H and N-H distances deviated from the neutron and the calculated values. The dynamic nature of the molecular tweezers in solution was additionally studied by multinuclear and variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy. We synthesized stable, individual isotopic isomers NDDB, NHDB, and NDHB. NMR measurements revealed a primary isotope effect in the chemical shift difference (p)Δ(1)H(D) = δ(NH) - δ(ND) (0.56 ppm), and hence supported dihydrogen bonding. The NMR studies gave strong evidence that the structure of NHHB in solution is similar to that in the solid state. This is corroborated by IR studies providing clear evidence for the dynamic nature of the intramolecular dihydrogen bonding at room temperature. Interestingly, no kinetic isotope effect was detected for the activation of deuterium hydride by the ansa-aminoborane NB. Theoretical calculations attribute this to an "early transition state". Moreover, 2D NOESY NMR measurements support fast intermolecular proton exchange in aprotic CD(2)Cl(2) and C(6)D(6).     

Chirality organization of ferrocenes bearing podand dipeptide chains: synthesis and structural characterization

A variety of ferrocenes bearing podand dipeptide chains have been synthesized to form an ordered structure in both solid and solution states and have been investigated by 1H NMR, FT-IR, CD, and X-ray crystallographic analyses. Conformational enantiomerization through chirality organization was achieved by the intramolecular hydrogen bondings between the podand dipeptide chains. The single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the ferrocene 2 bearing the podand dipeptide chains (-D-Ala-D-Pro-OEt) revealed two C2-symmetric intramolecular hydrogen bondings between CO (Ala) and NH (another Ala) of each podand dipeptide chain to induce the chirality-organized structure. The molecular structures of the ferrocene 1 composed of the podand L-dipeptide chains (-L-Ala-L-Pro-OEt) and 2 are in a good mirror image relationship, indicating that they are conformational enantiomers. An opposite helically ordered molecular arrangement was formed in the crystal packing of 2 as compared with 1. The ferrocene 2 exhibited induced circular dichroism (CD), which appeared at the absorbance of the ferrocene moiety. The mirror image of the CD signals between 1 and 2 was observed, suggesting that the chirality-organized structure via intramolecular hydrogen bondings is present even in solution. The ferrocene 4 bearing the podand dipeptide chains (-Gly-L-Leu-OEt) also showed an ordered structure in the crystal based on two intramolecular hydrogen bondings between CO (Gly) and NH (another Gly) of each podand dipeptide chain, together with intermolecular hydrogen bondings between CO adjacent to the ferrocene unit and NH (neighboring Leu) to create the highly organized self-assembly. A different self-assembly was observed in the crystal of the ferrocene 5 composed of the podand dipeptide chains (-Gly-L-Phe-OEt), wherein each molecule is bonded to two neighboring molecules through two pairs of symmetrical intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form a 14-membered intermolecularly hydrogen-bonded ring. These ordered structures based on the intramolecular hydrogen bondings in the solution state are also confirmed by 1H NMR and FT-IR.     

Synthesis and Hydrogen Bonding Capabilities of Biphenyl-Based Amino Acids Designed To Nucleate beta-Sheet Structure

The syntheses of 3'-(aminoethyl)-2-biphenylpropionic acid (1) and 2-amino-3'-biphenylcarboxylic acid (2) are described. These residues were designed to nucleate beta-sheet structure in aqueous solution when incorporated into small, amphiphilic peptides in place of the backbone of the i + 1 and i + 2 residues of the beta-turn. N-Benzyl-3'-(2-(benzylamido)ethyl)-2-biphenylpropamide (3) and N-benzyl-(2-benzylamido)-3'-biphenylamide (4) were synthesized and studied as model compounds to investigate the hydrogen-bonding capabilities of residues 1 and 2, respectively. The X-ray crystal structure of 3 indicates that a 13-membered intramolecular hydrogen-bonded ring is formed, while the remaining amide proton and carbonyl are involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Infrared and variable-temperature NMR experiments indicate that, in solution (CH(2)Cl(2)), 3 exists as an equilibrium mixture of the 13- and the 15-membered intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded conformers with the 15-membered ring conformer being favored. Amide 4 was shown to exist in solution (CH(2)Cl(2)) as an equilibrium mixture of the 11-membered intramolecular hydrogen-bonded ring and a nonbonded conformation. No contribution from the 9-membered hydrogen-bonded ring conformation was observed. The X-ray crystal structure of 4 indicated the absence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the solid state.     

Intramolecular hydrogen bonding and calixarene-like structures in p-cresol/formaldehyde resins

The nature of the strong hydrogen bonds found in p-cresol/formaldehyde (PCF) resins, compared to ordinary phenolic compounds, is studied. The evidence from FTIR spectroscopy indicates that this strong interaction is due to intramolecular hydrogen bonding from “calixarene-like” structures. The formation of this structure in PCF is enabled by its “linear” (all-ortho-linkage) structure, which is not present in branched resins. Additionally, a transition is observed at around 175 to 200°C where the intramolecular hydrogen bonded structure is lost. This structure cannot be recovered upon cooling or annealing due to restrictions on conformational rotations that are coupled to a new pattern of intermolecular hydrogen bonding. However, the structure is reformed by dissolving the resin in solution and casting new films.     

Tautomerism in the solid state and in solution of a series of 6-aminofulvene-1-aldimines

To study systems able to sustain intramolecular proton-transfer, we have prepared a series of six aminofulvene aldimines including several labeled with (15)N and (2)H. These compounds show coupling constants through the hydrogen bond, (1h)J((15)N- (1)H) and (2h)J((15)N-(15)N). The position of the tautomeric equilibria, i.e., on what nitrogen atom is the proton, was determined in the solid state and in solution. The crystal structure of N[[5-[(phenylamino)methylene]-1,3-cyclopentadien-1-yl]methylene]pyrrole-1-amine (3) has been determined by X-ray analysis. In solution, both N-H and C-H tautomers were observed and their structures assigned by NMR spectroscopy. Particularly useful is the value of the (1)J((15)N-(1)H) coupling constant.     

Tracking the Amide I and αCOO− Terminal ν(C=O) Raman Bands in a Family of l-Glutamic Acid-Containing Peptide Fragments: A Raman and DFT Study

The E-hook of β-tubulin plays instrumental roles in cytoskeletal regulation and function. The last six C-terminal residues of the βII isotype, a peptide of amino acid sequence EGEDEA, extend from the microtubule surface and have eluded characterization with classic X-ray crystallographic techniques. The band position of the characteristic amide I vibration of small peptide fragments is heavily dependent on the length of the peptide chain, the extent of intramolecular hydrogen bonding, and the overall polarity of the fragment. The dependence of the E residue’s amide I ν(C=O) and the αCOO− terminal ν(C=O) bands on the neighboring side chain, the length of the peptide fragment, and the extent of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the structure are investigated here via the EGEDEA peptide. The hexapeptide is broken down into fragments increasing in size from dipeptides to hexapeptides, including EG, ED, EA, EGE, EDE, DEA, EGED, EDEA, EGEDE, GEDEA, and, finally, EGEDEA, which are investigated with experimental Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) computations to model the zwitterionic crystalline solids (in vacuo). The molecular geometries and Boltzmann sum of the simulated Raman spectra for a set of energetic minima corresponding to each peptide fragment are computed with full geometry optimizations and corresponding harmonic vibrational frequency computations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(2df,2pd) level of theory. In absence of the crystal structure, geometry sampling is performed to approximate solid phase behavior. Natural bond order (NBO) analyses are performed on each energetic minimum to quantify the magnitude of the intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The extent of the intramolecular charge transfer is dependent on the overall polarity of the fragment considered, with larger and more polar fragments exhibiting the greatest extent of intramolecular charge transfer. A steady blue shift arises when considering the amide I band position moving linearly from ED to EDE to EDEA to GEDEA and, finally, to EGEDEA. However, little variation is observed in the αCOO− ν(C=O) band position in this family of fragments.
