31P NMR chemical shifts in hypervalent oxyphosphoranes and polymeric orthophosphates

We report the first quantum chemical investigation of the solid- and solution-state 31P NMR chemical shifts in models for phosphoryl transfer enzyme reaction intermediates and in polymeric inorganic phosphates. The 31P NMR chemical shifts of five- and six-coordinate oxyphosphoranes containing a variety of substitutions at phosphorus, as well as four-coordinate polymeric orthophosphates and four-coordinate phosphonates, are predicted with a slope of 1.00 and an R2= 0.993 (N = 34), corresponding to a 3.8 ppm (or 2.1%) error over the entire 178.3 ppm experimental chemical shift range, using Hartree-Fock methods. For the oxyphosphoranes, we used either experimental crystallographic structures or, when these were not available, fully geometry optimized molecular structures. For the four-coordinate phosphonates we used X-ray structures together with charge field perturbation, to represent lattice interactions. For the three-dimensional orthophosphates (BPO4, AlPO4, GaPO4 we again used X-ray structures, but for these inorganic systems we employed a self-consistent charge field perturbation approach on large clusters, to deduce peripheral atom charges. For pentaoxyphosphoranes, the solvent effect on 31P NMR chemical shieldings was found to be very small (<0.5 ppm). The 31P NMR chemical shielding tensors in the pentaoxyphosphoranes were in most cases found to be close to axially symmetric and were dominated by changes in the shielding tensor components in the equatorial plane (sigma22 and sigma33). The isotropic shifts were highly correlated (R2= 0.923) with phosphorus natural bonding orbital charges, with the larger charges being associated with shorter axial P-O bond lengths and, hence, more shielding. Overall, these results should facilitate the use of 31P NMR techniques in investigating the structures of more complex systems, such as phosphoryl transfer enzymes, as well as in investigating other, complex oxide structures.     

Prediction of 31P nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts for phosphines

Quantitative relationships of the (31)P NMR chemical shifts of the phosphorus atoms in 291 phosphines with the atomic ionicity index (INI) and stereoscopic effect parameters (epsilon(alpha), epsilon(beta), epsilon(gamma)) were primarily investigated in this paper for modeling some fundamental quantitative structure-spectroscopy relationships (QSSR). The results indicated that the (31)P NMR chemical shifts of phosphines can be described as the quantitative equation by multiple linear regression (MLR): delta(p)(ppm)= -174.0197-2.6724INI+40.4755epsilon(alpha)+15.1141epsilon(beta)-3.1858epsilon(gamma), correlation coefficient R=0.9479, root mean square error (rms)=13.9, and cross-validated predictive correlation coefficient was found by using the leave-one-out procedure to be Q(2)=0.8919. Furthermore, through way of random sampling, the estimative stability and the predictive power of the proposed MLR model were examined by constructing data set randomly into both the internal training set and external test set of 261 and 30 compounds, respectively, and then the chemical shifts were estimated and predicted with the training correlation coefficient R=0.9467 and rms=13.4 and the external predicting correlation coefficient Q(ext)=0.9598 and rms=10.8. A partial least square model was developed that produced R=0.9466, Q=0.9407 and Q(ext)=0.9599, respectively. Those good results provided a new, simple, accurate and efficient methodology for calculating (31)P NMR chemical shifts of phosphines.     

Quantum-chemical calculation of NMR chemical shifts of organic molecules: III. Intramolecular coordination effects on the 31P NMR chemical shifts of phosphorylated N-vinylazoles

Theoretical and experimental studies on magnetic shielding of the phosphorus nucleus in trichloro-[2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethenyl]phosphonium hexachlorophosphate(V) and 1,1,1,1-tetrachloro-1H-1λ⁶-pyrazolo-[1,2-a][1,2,3]diazaphosphol-8-ium-1-ide showed that intramolecular coordination of the phosphorus atom in the chlorophosphonium group to the nitrogen atom in the pyrazole ring leads to upfield shift of the phosphorus signal (to δ_P 170 ppm) and that the contribution of the spin-orbital contribution to the ³¹P chemical shift reaches 15%. Relativistic effects and effects of the medium are determining in the theoretical calculation of ³¹P NMR chemical shifts.     

Electronic properties of furyl substituents at phosphorus and their influence on 31P NMR chemical shifts

The electronic properties of 2-furyl and 3-furyl substituents attached to phosphanes and phosphonium salts were studied by means of IR spectroscopy and experimental and computational (31)P NMR spectroscopy. The heteroaromatic systems proved to be electron withdrawing with respect to phenyl substituents. However, phosphorus atoms with attached furyl substituents are strongly shielded in NMR. The reason for this phenomenon was studied by solid state (31)P MAS NMR experiments. The chemical shift tensor was extracted, and the orientation within the molecules was determined. The tensor component sigma(33), which is effected the most by furyl systems, is oriented perpendicular to the P-C bonds of the substituents. P-furyl bonds are shorter than P-phenyl bonds. We assume therefore a lower ground-state energy of the molecules, because of the electron withdrawing properties of the 2-furyl systems. The sigma(para) component of the (31)P NMR magnetic shielding is therefore smaller, which results in an overall increase of the magnetic shielding.     

Quantum chemical calculations of NMR chemical shifts of organic molecules: XI. Conformational and relativistic effects on the 31P and 77Se chemical shifts of phosphine selenides

Conformational and relativistic effects on the ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se chemical shifts of phosphine selenides were analyzed in terms of the ZORA-GIAO-B1PW91/TZP approach. The effect of conformation of phosphine selenides related to internal rotation about the single P-C bonds was found to be insignificant, while the contribution of relativistic spin-orbit interaction to the calculated values of ⁷⁷Se chemical shifts did not exceed 10 ppm. On the other hand, relativistic effects arising from magnetic shielding of the phosphorus nucleus in the P=Se fragment by selenium are fairly strong (25–30 ppm), which indicates the necessity of including the contribution of relativistic spin-orbit interaction in the calculation of ³¹P chemical shifts in phosphine selenides.     

Aminodiphenylphosphanes: Isotope‐induced chemical shifts 1Δ14/15N(31P), coupling constants 1J(31P,15N), and chemical shifts δ15N and δ31P

A series of aminodiphenylphosphanes 1 [Ph₂P‐N(H)tBu ( a ), ‐NEt₂ ( b ), ‐NiPr₂ ( c )], 2 [Ph₂P‐NHPh ( a ), ‐NH‐2‐pyridine ( b ), ‐NH‐3‐pyridine ( c ), ‐NH‐4‐pyridine ( d ), NH‐pyrimidine ( e ), NH‐2,6‐Me₂‐C₆H₃ ( f ), NH‐3‐Me‐2‐pyridine ( g )], 3 [Ph₂P‐N(Me)Ph ( a ), ‐NPh₂ ( b )], and N‐pyrrolyldiphenylphosphane 4 (Ph₂P‐NC₄H₄) was prepared and studied by NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, ¹⁵N NMR) spectroscopy. The isotope‐induced chemical shifts ¹Δ^14/15N(³¹P) were determined at natural abundance of ¹⁵N by using HEED INEPT experiments. A dependence of ¹Δ^14/15N(³¹P) on the substituents at nitrogen was found (alkyl < H < aryl; increasingly negative values). The magnitude and sign of the coupling constants ¹J(³¹P,¹⁵N) (positive sign) are dominated by the presence of the lone pair of electrons at the phosphorus atom. The X‐ray structural analysis of 2b is reported, showing the presence of dimers owing to intermolecular hydrogen bridges in the solid state. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Linear correlation of the barriers to pyramidal inversion of phosphorus with the31P chemical shifts of acylphosphines

Conclusions A linear correlation was obtained between the barriers to pyramidal inversion of the phosphorus and the³¹P chemical shifts of acyldiisopropylphosphines. It was shown that it can be applied to various acyl-, diacyl-, triacyl-, and cyanophosphines if the increments of the³¹P chemical shifts of the substituents are taken into account.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1769–1776, August, 1981.     

1H and 31P NMR spectra of substituted methylphosphonic acids with indirect determination of 31P shifts

Proton and phosphorus magnetic resonance spectra of substituted methylphosphonic acids have been determined as a function of pH. A method has been developed for measuring the ³¹P shift indirectly by optimal heteronuclear decoupling of the ¹H spectra of samples and standards. Control experiments have demonstrated the broad applicability of this technique to the characterization of low milligram samples of N-phosphonomethylglycine and potential metabolites.     

Phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts of phosphoric acid derivatives

(31)P nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts of alkyi and alkylaryl phosphates, condensed phosphates, phosphoric arids and their salts, are reported. These are listed by classes of compounds so that relationships between chemical shifts and the substituent groups on phosphorus atoms can be recognized. These relationships are useful for qualitative identification of the specific compounds listed and of related compounds by extrapolation.     

Comparison of steric effects on 31P chemical shifts in some 7-norbornyl, 7-norbornenyl and cyclohexyl phosphorus compounds

Phosphorus-31 NMR spectra were obtained on both syn and anti isomers of norbornenes with the 7-position bearing Cl₂P-, Me₂P-, Me₂(S)P- and Me₃P as substituents. Norbornanes with 7-Cl₂P- and 7-Me₂P- were also studied. Just as is true for ¹³C shifts for 7-Me in these bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives, the ³¹P shifts all fall noticeably upfield of published values for comparable cyclohexane derivatives. Consistent also with the ¹³C effect, a slight shielding of ³¹P in Me₂P- (1.1 ppm) was noted when this group was syn to the double bond of the norbornene system, relative to the value for the anti compound, suggesting the sensitivity of ³¹P to a diamagnetic effect from the double bond. However, the more space-demanding Cl₂P group when moved from the crowded anti to the less crowded syn position experienced a strong deshielding effect, as did the Me₂(S)P- and Me₃P- groups. The opposite is seen when these same groups are moved from the crowded axial to the less crowded equatorial position of cyclohexane, and a new structural influence appears to be operating in this system. A recent proposal that steric compression causes bond angles about phosphorus to increase and that this is the cause of the γ-shielding effect is not supported by published NMR and X-ray structural data for cis- and trans-1-methyl-4-tert-butyl-4-phosphorinanol. Bond angles about phosphorus are virtually identical in these isomers, yet ³¹P shifts differ by 6.9 ppm.

Conclusions The isotropic²⁷Al NMR chemical shifts in alumophosphates in the solid state and alumophosphate complexes in solution vary additively upon substitution of water by phosphate ions in the aluminum coordination sphere, while the³¹P NMR chemical shifts of phosphate vary additively depending on the number of coordinated aluminum atoms.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2340–2342, October, 1987.
