We have developed a two-layer Molecules-in-Molecules (MIM2) fragmentation-based quantum chemical method including an efficient solvation model for the prediction of NMR chemical shifts with a target accuracy of ∼0.30 ppm for 1H and ∼2–3 ppm for 13C.

The origin in deshielding of 29Si NMR chemical shifts in R3Si–X, where X = H, OMe, Cl, OTf, [CH6B11X6], toluene, and OX (OX = surface oxygen), as well as iPr3Si+ and Mes3Si+ were studied using DFT methods.

The 13C NMR resonances corresponding to the C-Me group of C-6 and/or C-8 C-methylated-flavonoids absorb between 6.7–10.0 ppm and typically between 6.7–8.7 ppm. A comparative 13C NMR study reflects that the 13C NMR chemical shifts reported for 6-hydroxy-5-methyl-3′,4′,5′-trimethoxyaurone-4-O-α-L-rhamnoside from Pterocarpus santalinus and 8-C-methyl-5,7,2′,4′- tetramethoxyflavanone from Terminalia alata are inconsistent with the assigned structures, and therefore need reconsideration.

In the [ABrnIm] (A = C, Si, Ge, Sn; n + m = 4) compounds, with the heavier halido ligands bonded to the central IV group elements, the 13C, 29Si, 73Ge and 119Sn NMR chemical shifts were found to be linearly related to the bonded halides ionic radii overall sum, ∑(rh). The 207Pb NMR chemical shift of the unstable [PbH4] hydride could be calculated.

Displacement of the CO ligand in CpV(NO)2CO (Cp = η5-cyclopentadienyl) by various Lewis bases (L) in solution leads to a series of (28) complexes CpV(NO)2L which were characterised by the 51V NMR chemical shift, the 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts of the cyclopentadienyl ring, and by the NO stretching frequencies of the two nitrosyl ligands. The chemical shift δ(51V) varies over the range of ca. -1300 and -500 ppm depending on the nature of L, whereas δ(13C) of the cyclopentadienyl ring varies only between 98 and 102 ppm. The shielding of the 51V and 13C nuclei decreases as the electronegativity of the ligand atom bound to the metal increases in the order P <S <N <O

Abstract We previously demonstrated that the δ NMR chemical shift of central NMR active atoms (A), in simple halido [AXn] (A=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, Pt; Xn = combination of n halides, n = 4 or 6) derivatives, could be directly related to X radii overall sum, Σ(rL). Further correlation have also been observed for tetrahedral [AX4] (A=C, Si; X4 = combination of four halides) compounds where the X Pauling electronegativities sum, $\Sigma (\chi _L^{{\rm{Pau}}}),$ exceeds a specific value (≈12.4). In this work, we focused on these latter systems considering the H vs. X substitution. The analysis of the literature reported δ(13C) and δ(29Si) NMR chemical shift for the mono hydrogenated derivatives and in particular for [CHF3] and [SiHF3], characterized by the lowest Σ(rL) and the highest $\Sigma (\chi _L^{{\rm{Pau}}}),$ suggests a revised value for the H electronegativity ranking with respect to Pauling’s.

We present a combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) molecular dynamics–statistical approach for the interpretation of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shift patterns in phycocyanobilin (PCB). These were originally associated with colour tuning upon photoproduct formation in red/green-absorbing cyanobacteriochrome AnPixJg2 and red/far-red-absorbing phytochrome Cph1Δ2. We pursue an indirect approach without computation of the absorption frequencies since the molecular geometry of cofactor and protein are not accurately known. Instead, we resort to a heuristic determination of the conjugation length in PCB through the experimental NMR chemical shift patterns, supported by quantum chemical calculations. We have found a characteristic correlation pattern of 13C chemical shifts to specific bond orders within the π-conjugated system, which rests on the relative position of carbon atoms with respect to electron-withdrawing groups and the polarisation of covalent bonds. We propose the inversion of this regioselective relationship using multivariate statistics and to apply it to the known experimental NMR chemical shifts in order to predict changes in the bond alternation pattern. Therefrom the extent of electronic conjugation, and eventually the change in absorption frequency, can be derived. In the process, the consultation of explicit mesomeric formulae plays an important role to qualitatively account for possible conjugation scenarios of the chromophore. While we are able to consistently associate the NMR chemical shifts with hypsochromic and bathochromic shifts in the Pg and Pfr, our approach represents an alternative method to increase the explanatory power of NMR spectroscopic data in proteins.

Substituted derivatives of 2- and 3-formylchromone were synthesized and studied by IR, 13C and 1H NMR spectroscopy and the AM1 quantum chemical method. Energy and electron distribution calculations confirm the preference of the synplanar conformation in 3-formylchromones. The calculated charges on the carbon atoms correlate well with the experimental 13C chemical shifts. Substituents bonded to the aromatic nucleus have only small effect on the electron structure of the pyrone ring.
