Mid-infrared vibrational unpolarised absorption and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of CCl4 solutions of tert-butyl methyl sulfoxide (1) are reported. The spectra are compared to ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations carried out using two functionals, B3PW91 and B3LYP, and two basis sets, 6-31G* and TZ2P. The VCD spectra are calculated using Gauge-invariant atomic orbitals (GIAOs). The analysis of the VCD spectrum confirms the R(-)/S(+) absolute configuration of 1. The advantages and disadvantages of VCD spectroscopy in determining the absolute configurations of chiral sulfoxides are discussed. 相似文献

[reaction: see text] The Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of (+)-(1R,5S)-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,7-dione, 1, can lead to four keto-lactone products, 2a-d. A single isomer is obtained experimentally. We have used IR and VCD spectroscopies to identify the structure of this product. DFT calculations of the IR and VCD spectra of 2a-d show unambiguously that the experimental product is (+)-(1R,6R)-2a, and not the expected product 2b. NMR studies, including comparison of DFT and experimental 1H and 13C spectra, support this conclusion. This work provides the first example of the use of VCD spectroscopy to discriminate between structural isomers of a chiral molecule. The specific rotation of (+)-(1R,6R)-2a, predicted using TDDFT methods, is negative demonstrating that absolute configurations determined from TDDFT calculations of specific rotations are not 100% reliable. 相似文献

We report the determination of the absolute configuration (AC) of the chiral sulfoxide, 1-(2-methylnaphthyl) methyl sulfoxide, 1, using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy. The VCD of 1 has been measured in the mid-IR spectral region in CCl(4) solution. Analysis employs the ab initio DFT/GIAO methodology. DFT calculations predict two stable conformations of 1, E and Z, Z being lower in energy than E by <1 kcal/mol. In both conformations the S-O bond is rotated from coplanarity with the naphthyl moiety by 30-40 degrees. The predicted unpolarized absorption ("IR") spectrum of the equilibrium mixture of the two conformations permits assignment of the experimental IR spectrum in the mid-IR spectral region. The presence of both E and Z conformations is clearly evident. The VCD spectrum predicted for S-1 is in excellent agreement with the experimental spectrum of (-)-1, unambiguously defining the AC of 1 as R(+)/S(-). 相似文献

The absolute configurations (ACs) of the iridoid natural products, plumericin (1) and isoplumericin (2), have been re-investigated using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy, and optical rotatory dispersion (ORD). Comparison of DFT calculations of the VCD spectra of 1 and 2 to the experimental VCD spectra of the natural products, (+)-1 and (+)-2, leads unambiguously to the AC (1R,5S,8S,9S,10S)-(+) for both 1 and 2. In contrast, comparison of time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) calculations of the ECD spectra of 1 and 2 to the experimental spectra of (+)-1 and (+)-2 does not permit definitive assignment of their ACs. On the other hand, TDDFT calculations of the ORD of (1R,5S,8S,9S,10S)-1 and -2 over the range of 365-589 nm are in excellent agreement with the experimental data of (+)-1 and (+)-2, confirming the ACs derived from the VCD spectra. Thus, the ACs initially proposed by Albers-Sch?nberg and Schmid are shown to be correct, and the opposite ACs recently derived from the ECD spectra of 1 and 2 by Els?sser et al. are shown to be incorrect. As a result, the ACs of other iridoid natural products obtained by chemical correlation with 1 and 2 are not in need of revision. 相似文献

The enantiomers of tert-butyl(dimethylamino)phenylphosphine-borane complex 2 have been separated by HPLC using cellulose tris-p-methylbenzoate as chiral stationary phase. The borane protection could be removed without racemization and the P-configuration of the free aminophosphine 1 has shown to be stable in solution. Infrared (IR) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra have been measured in CD2Cl2 solution for both enantiomers. B3LYP/6-31+G(d) DFT calculations allowed a prediction that complex (S)-2 exists as three conformers in equilibrium and computed population-weighted IR and VCD spectra. Predicted and experimental IR and VCD spectra compared very well and indicate that enantiomer (+)-2 has the S absolute configuration. This assignment has been confirmed by an X-ray diffraction study on a single crystal of (+)-2. The crystal structure of enantiomerically pure 2 appears to be very close to the most stable computed conformer which proved to be predominant in solution. 相似文献

We demonstrate that derivatization of the OH group of endo-borneol, 1, leads to conformational rigidification. Conformational analysis (CA) of 1 and its methyl, acetate, tert-butyl, and trimethylsilyl derivatives, 2-5, is carried out using ab initio density functional theory (DFT). The number of thermally accessible stable conformations is reduced from 3 in 1, to 2 in 2, and to 1 in 3-5. Comparison of IR and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of 1 and 3-5, calculated using DFT, to experimental spectra unambiguously confirms the DFT CA. The determination of absolute configurations (ACs) of chiral molecules via analysis of chiroptical spectra using DFT methods increases in complexity and decreases in reliability as the number of populated conformations increases. Our results for endo-borneol support the conclusion that, in the case of chiral alcohols, derivatization can lead to substantial rigidification and, as a result, significantly facilitate the determination of ACs. 相似文献

The enantiomers of 2-(2-chlorophenoxy) propanoic acid and 2-(3-chlorophenoxy) propanoic acid were resolved on a chiral HPLC column and investigated using mid-infrared vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). Experimental infrared vibrational absorption and VCD spectra were measured in CDCl3 solution in the 2000-900 cm-1 region and compared with the ab initio predictions of absorption and VCD spectra. The predicted spectra were obtained with density functional theory using B3LYP/6-31G* basis set for the stable and dominant conformers. But the predicted spectra did not provide unambiguous structural information due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in solution. To eliminate the hydrogen bonding effects, the acids were converted to the corresponding methyl esters and the experimental absorbance and VCD spectra of methyl esters were measured. B3LYP predicted spectra were also obtained for the stable and dominant conformers of the esters. From a comparison of the experimental VCD spectra of methyl esters with corresponding ab initio predictions, the absolute configurations of esters, and therefore of their parent acids, are unambiguously determined to be (+)-(R). 相似文献

Vibrational absorption and circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of (-)-(1S,3R)-camphanic acid have been measured in deuterated chloroform solutions at different concentrations (0.005, 0.045, and 0.200 M) in the mid-infrared spectral range. Experimental spectra have been compared with the density functional theory (DFT) absorption and VCD spectra, calculated using the B3PW91 functional and cc-pVTZ basis set for three conformers of both the monomer and the dimer forms of (-)-(1S,3R)-camphanic acid. These calculations indicate that, in the dilute solution, the conformer with intramolecular hydrogen-bonding between the hydroxyl and lactone groups is of lowest energy and represents 70% of the different monomer conformers at room temperature, whereas, in concentrated solution, the dimer formed by intermolecular hydrogen-bonding of carboxyl groups of the two distinct monomer conformations is stabilized. The vibrational absorption and circular dichroism spectra calculated from the Boltzmann population of the individual monomer and dimer conformers are in very good overall agreement with the corresponding experimental spectra, allowing the absolute conformation and configuration of (-)-(1S,3R)-camphanic acid in dilute and concentrated solution, respectively. Experiments were also performed on (-)-(1S,3R)-camphanic chloride for which the populations predicted by DFT calculations are found to be in disagreement with those deduced from experimental spectra. 相似文献

The Absolute configuration (AC) of the chiral alkane D3-anti-trans-anti-trans-anti-trans-perhydrotriphenylene (PHTP), 1, is determined by comparison of density functional theory (DFT) calculations of its vibrational circular dichroism (VCD)
and optical rotation (OR) to the experimental VCD and OR of (+)−1, obtained in high enantiomeric excess using chiral gas chromatography. Conformational analysis of 1 demonstrates that the all-chair (CCCC) conformation is the lowest in energy and that other conformations are too high in
energy to be significantly populated at room temperature. The B3PW91/TZ2P calculated IR spectrum of the CCCC conformation
of 1 is in excellent agreement with the experimental IR spectrum, confirming the conformational analysis and demonstrating the
excellent accuracy of the B3PW91 functional and the TZ2P basis set. The B3PW91/TZ2P calculated VCD spectrum of the CCCC conformation
of S-1 is in excellent agreement with the experimental VCD spectrum of (+)−1, unambiguously defining the AC of 1 to be S(+)/R(−). The B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ calculated OR of S-1 over the range 589–365 nm has the same sign and dispersion as the experimental OR of (+)−1, further supporting the AC S(+)/R(−). Our results confirm the AC proposed earlier by Farina and Audisio. This study provides
a further demonstration of the excellent accuracy of VCD spectra predicted using Stephens’ equation for vibrational rotational
strengths together with the ab initio DFT methodology, and further documents the utility of VCD spectroscopy in determining
the ACs of chiral molecules. 相似文献

The infrared (IR) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of S-2,2'-dimethyl-biphenyl-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid, S-1, in CDCl(3) solution are concentration-dependent, showing that oligomerization occurs with increasing concentration. DFT calculations support the conclusion that the oligomer formed is the cyclic tetramer (S-1)(4), in which S-1 monomers are linked by hydrogen(H)-bonded (COOH)(2) moieties. Due to the existence of two inequivalent tautomeric conformations of each (COOH)(2) moiety, six inequivalent conformations of (S-1)(4) are possible. B3LYP/6-31G* DFT calculations predict that the conformation "aaab", possessing three equivalent (COOH)(2) conformations, a, and one tautomeric conformation, b, has the lowest free energy. B3LYP/6-31G* IR and VCD spectra vary substantially with conformation. The B3LYP/6-31G* IR and VCD spectra of the C=O stretch modes of "aaab" are in excellent agreement with the experimental spectra, while those of all other conformations exhibit poor agreement, confirming the prediction that the "aaab" conformation is the predominant conformation. Comparison of the calculated IR and VCD spectra of the six conformations to the experimental spectra in the range 1100-1600 cm(-1) further supports this conclusion. The study is the first to use VCD spectroscopy to determine the structure of a supramolecular species. 相似文献

The absolute configuration of the (+)-1,1-dimethyl-2-phenylethyl phenyl sulfoxide is determined to be (R), using three different chiroptical spectroscopic methods, namely vibrational circular dichroism (VCD), electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and specific rotation. Four solution conformations are identified for 1,1-dimethyl-2-phenylethyl phenyl sulfoxide. In each of the methods used, experimental data for the enantiomers of 1,1-dimethyl-2-phenylethyl phenyl sulfoxide were measured in the solution phase and concomitant quantum mechanical calculations of corresponding properties were carried out using density functional theory with B3LYP functional and 6-31G* and 6-31+G basis sets. Additional VCD and ECD calculations were also undertaken with 6-311G(2d,2p) basis set. A comparison of theoretically predicted data with the corresponding experimental data has allowed us to elucidate the absolute configuration and predominant conformations of (+)-1,1-dimethyl-2-phenylethyl phenyl sulfoxide. 相似文献

The development of density functional theory (DFT) methods for the calculation of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD), electronic circular dichroism (ECD), and transparent spectral region optical rotation (OR) has revolutionized the determination of the absolute configurations (ACs) of chiral molecules using these chiroptical properties. We report the first concerted application of DFT calculations of VCD, ECD, and OR to the determination of the AC of a natural product whose AC was previously undetermined. The natural product is the alkaloid schizozygine, isolated from Schizozygia caffaeoides. Comparison of DFT calculations of the VCD, ECD, and OR of schizozygine to experimental data leads, for each chiroptical technique, to the AC 2R,7S,20S,21S for the naturally occurring (+)-schizozygine. Three other alkaloids, schizogaline, schizogamine, and 6,7-dehydro-19beta-hydroxyschizozygine, have also been isolated from S. caffaeoides and shown to have structures closely related to schizozygine. Assuming a common biosynthetic pathway, their ACs are defined by that of schizozygine. 相似文献

Enantiopure (+)-2,5-dimethylthiolane and (-)-2,5-dimethylsulfolane were prepared using literature procedures and investigated using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). Experimental absorption and VCD spectra of (+)-2,5-dimethylthiolane and (-)-2,5-dimethylsulfolane in CCl(4) solution in the 2000-900 cm(-)(1) region were compared with the ab initio predictions of absorption and VCD spectra obtained with density functional theory using the B3LYP/6-311G(2d, 2p) basis set for different conformers of (2R,5R)-2,5-dimethylthiolane and (2R,5R)-2,5-dimethylsulfolane. This comparison indicates that (+)-2,5-dimethylthiolane is of the (2R,5R)-configuration and has two predominant conformations in CCl(4) solution. In addition, (-)-2,5-dimethylsulfolane is of (2R,5R)-configuration and has only one predominant conformation. The stereochemical assignment is in agreement with literature. 相似文献

Vibrational absorption (IR) and circular dichroism (VCD) measurements of trans-(3S,4S)-d6-cyclopentene in the gas phase were performed in the C-H, C-D, and mid-infrared regions. In this study, we report the first VCD spectra recorded at high spectral resolution (up to 0.5 cm(-1)) with a very good signal-to-noise ratio (differential absorbance lower than 5 x 10(-6)). The quality of the experimental spectra allows us the observation of the vibration-rotation structure of the bands in both absorption and VCD spectra. Experimental spectra have been compared with the density functional theory (DFT) absorption and VCD spectra, calculated using B3LYP functional and cc-pVTZ basis set for the axial, equatorial, and planar conformers. Lorentzian and PQR band profiles have been used to convert the calculated dipolar and rotational strengths. In the mid-infrared (<2000 cm(-1)) region, predicted (population-weighted) spectra were in excellent agreement with experiment, allowing the determination of the absolute configuration of this molecule. Above 2000 cm(-1), a reasonable agreement was obtained even if anharmonicity was not considered and if Fermi resonance occurs in the C-D stretching region. Finally, a more precise analysis of the absorption spectrum has been achieved by taking into account anharmonicity of the C-H stretching and its coupling with the ring-puckering motion. 相似文献

The technique of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) has very recently been applied to the calculation of both transparent spectral region optical rotations and electronic circular dichroism (CD). Here, we report the concerted application of the new methodologies to the determination of the absolute configuration (AC) of [3(2)](1,4)barrelenophanedicarbonitrile, 1, the first optically active barrelenophane. 1 is conformationally flexible: the two three-carbon bridges of 1 can each exhibit two conformations, leading to three inequivalent conformations of 1: a, b, and c. Conformational structures and energies are predicted using DFT at the B3LYP/6-31G level. Comparison of the calculated structures to structures obtained via X-ray crystallography of (+)-1 shows that (remarkably) all three conformations a-c are simultaneously present in crystalline (+)-1. The sodium D line specific rotations, [alpha](D), and CD spectra of a-c are calculated using TDDFT at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level. Comparison of the conformationally averaged specific rotation and CD spectrum to the experimental data of Matsuda-Sentou and Shinmyozu leads to the AC 9S,12S(+)/9R,12R(-). The same AC is obtained both from [alpha](D) and from the CD, strongly supporting its reliability. 相似文献

An unprecedented methodology was developed to simultaneously assign the relative percentages of the major chiral compounds and their prevailing enantiomeric form in crude essential oils (EOs). In a first step the infrared (IR) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of the crude essential oils were recorded and in a second step they were modelized as a linear weighted combination of the IR and VCD spectra of the individual spectra of pure enantiomer of the major chiral compounds present in the EOs. The VCD spectra of enantiomer of known enantiomeric excess shall be recorded if they are not yet available in a library of VCD spectra. For IR, the spectra of pure enantiomer or racemic mixture can be used. The full spectra modelizations were performed using a well known and powerful mathematical model (least square estimation: LSE) which resulted in a weighting of each contributing compound. For VCD modelization, the absolute value of each weighting represented the percentage of the associate compound while the attached sign addressed the correctness of the enantiomeric form used to build the model. As an example, a model built with the non-prevailing enantiomer will show a negative sign of the weighting value. For IR spectra modelization, the absolute value of each weighting represented the percentage of the compounds without of course accounting for the chirality of the prevailing enantiomers. Comparison of the weighting values issuing from IR and VCD spectra modelizations is a valuable source of information: if they are identical, the EOs are composed of nearly pure enantiomers, if they are different the chiral compounds of the EOs are not in an optically pure form. The method was applied on four samples of essential oil of Artemisia herba-alba in which the three major compounds namely (−)-α-thujone, (+)-β-thujone and (−)-camphor were found in different proportions as determined by GC–MS and chiral HPLC using polarimetric detector. In order to validate the methodology, the modelization of the VCD spectra was performed on purpose using the individual VCD spectra of (−)-α-thujone, (+)-β-thujone and (+)-camphor instead of (−)-camphor. During this work, the absolute configurations of (−)-α-thujone and (+)-β-thujone were confirmed by comparison of experimental and calculated VCD spectra as being (1S,4R,5R) and (1S,4S,5R) respectively. 相似文献

The absolute configuration and conformation of 1-phenylethanol (1-PhEtOH) have been determined by matrix-isolation infrared (IR) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy combined with quantum chemical calculations. Quantum chemical calculations have identified that there are three conformers, namely, I, II, and III, in which characteristic intramolecular interactions are found. The IR spectrum-conformation correlation for 1-PhEtOH has been developed by the Ar matrix-isolation IR measurement and used for the assignments of the observed IR bands. In a dilute CCl(4) solution, 1-PhEtOH exists predominantly as conformer I along with a trace amount of conformer II. By considering conformations and intermolecular hydrogen-bonding in the spectral simulation for (S)-1-PhEtOH, we have successfully reproduced the VCD spectrum of (-)-1-PhEtOH observed in a dilute CS(2) solution. Thus, (-)-1-PhEtOH is of S-configuration and conformer I in the dilute solution. The same method has been applied to analyze the VCD spectra measured in the liquid state of (-)-1-PhEtOH. The absolute configuration of 1-PhEtOH in the condensed phase is enabled by identifying VCD bands that are insensitive to conformational changes and intermolecular interactions. The present work provides a combinatorial procedure for determination of both the absolute configuration and the conformation of chiral molecules in a dilute solution and condensed phase. 相似文献

This paper presents a discussion of the interaction energies, conformations, vibrational absorption (VA, harmonic and anharmonic) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra for conformers of monomeric chiral d(-)-lactic acid and their complexes with water at the DFT(B3LYP)/aug-cc-pVDZ and DFT(B3LYP)/aug-cc-pVTZ levels. A detailed analysis has been performed principally for the two most stable complexes with water, differing by lactic acid conformation. The VCD spectra were found to be sensitive to conformational changes of both free and complexed molecules, and to be especially useful for discriminating between different chiral forms of intermolecular hydrogen bonding complexes. In particular, we show that the VCD modes of an achiral water molecule after complex formation acquire significant rotational strengths whose signs change in line with the geometry of the complex. Using the theoretical prediction, we demonstrate that the VCD technique can be used as a powerful tool for structural investigation of intermolecular interactions of chiral molecules and can yield information complementary to data obtained through other molecular spectroscopy methods. 相似文献

The vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of the acetate derivative, 3, of 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-chromen-4-one, 1, and the acetate derivative, 4, of 6-bromo-2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-chromen-4-one, 2, in the CO stretching region are reported. Density functional theory (DFT) predictions of the VCD spectra of the CO stretching modes of (R)-3 and (R)-4 are in excellent agreement with the experimental spectra for (+)-3 and (+)-4, demonstrating that the absolute configurations of both molecules are (R)-(+)/(S)-(−). Since acetylation of (+)-1 and (+)-2 yields (+)-3 and (+)-4, this in turn leads to (R)-(+)/(S)-(−) for both 1 and 2. The absolute configurations of (−)-1 and (−)-2 were previously determined using X-ray crystallography to be R and S, respectively. Our results lead to the conclusion that the previously reported absolute configuration of 1 is incorrect.This work is the first to apply the ‘conformational rigidification via chemical derivatisation’ methodology to the determination of absolute configuration using VCD spectroscopy and illustrates its utility in determining the absolute configurations of chiral alcohols and, by extension, other classes of chiral molecules containing flexible functional groups. 相似文献

The absolute configuration of jatropholone A 1 and B 2, including the possibility to observe the vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) capacity to differentiate between two epimeric compounds in the presence of an inherently dissymmetric chromophore, which normally dominates VCD and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, followed after comparison of their experimental and DFT calculated VCD spectra, allowed us to conclude that although non-local (M/P) chirality generated by atropisomerism dominates over local chirality generated by an (R/S) change, the stereogenic center can confidently be assigned by VCD after DFT calculations. In addition, the absolute configurations of jatrophatrione 3 and citlalitrione 4, a compound proposed as a taxonomic marker for the genus Jatropha, were assigned by contrasting their respective calculated and experimental IR and VCD spectra. The evaluation of Flack and Hooft parameters obtained from the single-crystal X-ray diffraction data of jatropholone B acetate 6, and of 4 independently confirmed the absolute configurations of these molecules. 相似文献
