We have determined the absolute configuration of the chiral sulfoxide 1-thiochroman S-oxide 1 using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy. The VCD spectrum of a CCl4 solution of 1 was analyzed using density functional theory (DFT), which predicts three stable conformations of 1, separated by <1 kcal/mol. The VCD spectrum predicted using the DFT/GIAO methodology for the equilibrium mixture of the three conformations of (S)-1 is in excellent agreement with the experimental spectrum of (+)-1. The absolute configuration of 1 is therefore (R)-(−)/(S)-(+). (+)-1 and (−)-1 of high enantiomeric excess (e.e.) were synthesized in high yields via asymmetric oxidation of 1-thiochroman 2 using Ti(iso-PrO)4/(R,R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diol/H2O/tert-butyl hydroperoxide and Ti(iso-PrO)4/l-diethyl tartrate/H2O/cumene hydroperoxide, respectively.  相似文献

The absolute configuration of rhizopine, an opine‐like natural product present in nitrogen‐fixing nodules of alfalfa infected by rhizobia, is elucidated using a combination of state‐of‐the‐art analytical and semi‐preparative supercritical fluid chromatography and vibrational circular dichroism spectroscopy. A synthetic peracetylated racemate was fractionated into its enantiomers and subjected to absolute configuration analysis revealing that natural rhizopine exists as a single enantiomer. The stereochemistry of non‐derivatized natural rhizopine corresponds to (1R,2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)‐4‐amino‐6‐methoxycyclohexane‐1,2,3,5‐tetraol.  相似文献

A new oxathiane, derived from 5-hydroxy-1-tetralone has been synthesized in eight steps, fully characterized as cis-fused rings by 1D and 2D NMR and resolved by preparative chiral chromatography (CHIRALCEL OD-R). The second eluting (+, MeOH)-isomer was assigned (S,S)-configuration by VCD-ab initio simulation.  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

The three possible dimethylsubstituted phenyloxiranes (cis, trans and geminal) were synthesized in both racemic (mCPBA) and enantiomerically enriched forms (Shi epoxidation) and subjected to a vibrational circular dichroism study. The experimental spectra were compared to theoretical spectra obtained using DFT/B3LYP calculations, and the differences between experiment and theory are discussed. The absolute configuration at the benzylic position was established as being (R), (S) and (R) for the cis, trans and geminal dimethylsubstituted phenyloxiranes, respectively. In all three cases the configuration of the major enantiomer was in accordance with a simple transition state model based on the spiro reaction mode.

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

Fumonisins are mycotoxins produced by Fusarium moniliforme (Sheldon) and other related fungi that are common contaminants of corn and other grains throughout the world. The circular dichroism (CD) exciton chirality method was applied to determine the absolute configuration of the terminal part of the backbone of fumonisins. Using the p-dimethylaminobenzoate chromophore, the structure of FB1 was confirmed to be 2S, 3S and 5R, while that of FB3 is described for the first time to be 2S and 3S.  相似文献

The stereochemistry of products obtained via a chemical reaction may not always be obvious from the reaction scheme utilized. The identification of convenient methods to determine the stereochemistry in such cases is highly desirable. To identify these methods, we considered a substituted 4-vinyl-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-3-en-7-one that undergoes spontaneous oxidation in the atmosphere at room temperature, yielding an epoxide with unknown absolute configuration. To determine the absolute configuration of the resulting epoxide, three different approaches have been utilized: (a) experimental NOE measurements; (b) experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopic measurements and their analysis using corresponding quantum chemical predictions at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level; (c) experimental vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopic measurements and their analysis using corresponding quantum chemical predictions at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level. It was found that the NOE data could not provide enough proof for assigning the absolute configuration, while ECD data could not provide enough discrimination to distinguish between the two possible stereoisomers. On the other hand, VCD spectroscopic analysis provided enough discrimination to distinguish between the two possible stereoisomers, and the absolute configuration could be assigned with confidence.  相似文献

The host/guest complexation between cyclodextrins (CDs) and aromatic compounds was studied by vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy in mid-IR region. Benzoic acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid, and 2,6-naphthalene-dicarboxylic acid acting as the guests with aromatic skeleton, cause the significant changes in VCD patterns of CD, which indicate that the secondary hydroxyl groups of the CDs are involved in the host/guest complexation. In addition, the intensities and dissymmetry factors (deltaA/A) of the VCD bands, which belong to skeletal CD vibrations, depend on the sizes of the guest molecules. Our results indicate that the formation of the CD inclusion complexes can be followed by VCD spectroscopy.  相似文献

Chiroptical techniques are increasingly employed for assigning the absolute configuration of chiral molecules through comparison of experimental spectra with theoretical predictions. For assignment of natural products, electronic chiroptical spectroscopies such as electronic circular dichroism (ECD) are routinely applied. However, the sensitivity of electronic spectral parameters to experimental conditions and the theoretical methods employed can lead to incorrect assignments. Vibrational chiroptical methods (vibrational circular dichroism, VCD, and Raman optical activity, ROA) provide more reliable assignments, although they, in particular ROA, have been little explored for assignments of natural products. In this study, the ECD, VCD, and ROA chiroptical spectroscopies are evaluated for the assignment of the absolute configuration of a highly flexible natural compound with two stereocenters and an asymmetrically substituted double bond, the marine antibiotic Synoxazolidinone A (SynOxA), recently isolated from the sub-Arctic ascidian Synoicum pulmonaria. Conformationally averaged nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ECD, Raman, ROA, infrared (IR) and VCD spectral parameters are computed for the eight possible stereoisomers of SynOxA and compared to experimental results. In contrast to previously reported results, the stereochemical assignment of SynOxA based on ECD spectral bands is found to be unreliable. On the other hand, ROA spectra allow for a reliable determination of the configuration at the double bond and the ring stereocenter. However, ROA is not able to resolve the chlorine-substituted stereogenic center on the guanidinium side chain of SynOxA. Application of the third chiroptical method, VCD, indicates unique spectral features for all eight SynOxA isomers in the theoretical spectra. Although the experimental VCD is weak and restricted by the limited amount of sample, it allows for a tentative assignment of the elusive chlorine-substituted stereocenter. VCD chiroptical analysis of a SynOxA derivative with three stereocenters, SynOxC, results in the same absolute configuration as for SynOxA. Despite the experimental challenges, the results convincingly prove that the assignment of absolute configuration based on vibrational chiroptical methods is more reliable than for ECD.  相似文献

The (+)-enantiomers of the o-Br, m-F and p-CH3 derivatives of trans phenyl glycidic acid have been obtained from the corresponding trans cinnamic acid derivatives using Oxone and the tri-keto bile acid dehydrocholic acid. Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy of their methyl esters has been used to determine their absolute configurations. In each case, the absolute configurations of both methyl ester and parent acid were shown to be (2S,3R)-(+)/(2R,3S)-(−).  相似文献

Experimental vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra for the dextrorotatory enantiomer and theoretical VCD spectra obtained with localized molecular orbital theory using 6-31G* basis set for the (R) configuration of 2-methylthiirane-3,3-d(2) in the 700-1500 cm(-1) region are presented. The observed and predicted VCD signs are in very good agreement suggesting that the dextrorotatory enantiomer has the (R) configuration. This conclusion is also supported by the optical rotational data.  相似文献

The absolute configuration of(+)-(1,5)-diamino-triptycene has been determined by calculation of the CD spectrum of the molecule and comparison with the experimental results of Tanaka et al.4 To achieve this the exciton theory of Weigang and Nugent3 has been extended to include terms representing the retardation of the electro-magnetic wave in the chromophores. The final results of the present study are in contradiction with those of Tanaka et al.4a,b,c  相似文献

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra were recorded with a tunable external-cavity quantum-cascade laser (QCL). In comparison with standard thermal light sources in the IR, QCLs provide orders of magnitude more power and are therefore promising for VCD studies in strongly absorbing solvents. The brightness of this novel light source is demonstrated with VCD and IR absorption measurements of a number of compounds, including proline in water.  相似文献

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

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 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
