Substituent Effects on NMR Spectroscopy of 2,2-Dimethylchroman-4-one Derivatives: Experimental and Theoretical Studies.

ABSTRACT: The attribution of 1H and 13C NMR signals of a library of 5-, 6- and 7-substituted 2,2-dimethylchroman-4-one derivatives is reported. Substituent effects were interpreted in terms of the Hammett equation, showing a good correlation for carbons para- to the substituent group, not for the meta- ones. Similarly, the Lynch correlation shows the additivity of the substituent chemical shifts in the case of both H and C nuclei, again with the exception of the carbons in the meta- position. Density Functional Theory (DFT)-predicted 1H and 13C chemical shifts correspond closely with experimentally observed values, with some exceptions for C NMR data; however, the correlation is valid only for the aromatic moiety and cannot be extended to the heterocyclic ring of the chroman-4-one scaffold.

Project description:The below article presents the results of spectroscopic research, theoretical (time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT)), microbiological, and antioxidative calculations for three compounds from the group of 1,3,4-thiadiazoles: 2-amino-5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (TB), 2-amino-5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (TS), 2-amino-5-(2-hydroxy-5-sulfobenzoyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (TSF). In the fluorescence emission spectra (TS) of solutions with varying concentrations of hydrogen ions, a particularly interesting effect of dual fluorescence was observed. The aforementioned effect was observed even more clearly in the environment of butan-1-ol, relative to the compound's concentration. Depending on the modification of the resorcylic substituent (TS and TSF), we observed the emergence of two separate, partially overlapping, fluorescence emission spectra or a single emission spectrum. Interpretation of the obtained spectra using stationary and time-resolved spectroscopy allowed the correlation of the effect's emergence with the phenomenon of molecular aggregation (of a particular type) as well as, above all, the structure of the substituent system. The overlap of said effects most likely induces the processes related to the phenomenon of charge transfer (in TS) and is responsible for the observed fluorescence effects. Also, the position of the -OH group (in the resorcylic ring) is significant and can facilitate the charge transfer (CT). The determinations of the changes in the dipole moment and TD-DFT calculations further corroborate the above assumption. The following paper presents the analysis (the first for this particular group of analogues) of the fluorescence effects relative to the changes in the structure of the resorcylic group combined with pH effects. The results of biological studies also indicate the highest pharmacological potential of the analogue in the case where the effects of dual fluorescence emission are observed, which predisposes this particular group of fluorophores as effective fluorescence probes or potential pharmaceuticals with antimycotic properties.

Project description:The current study investigates the influence of several R substituents (e.g., Me, SiH3, F, Cl, Br, OH, NH2, etc.) on the aromaticity of borazine, also known as the "inorganic benzene". By performing hybrid DFT methods, blended with several computational techniques, e.g., Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM), Gauge-Including Magnetically Induced Current (GIMIC), Nucleus-Independent Chemical Shift (NICS), and following a simultaneous evaluation of four different aromaticity indices (para-delocalization index (PDI), multi-centre bond order (MCBO), ring current strength (RCS), and NICS parameters), it is emphasized that the aromatic character of B-substituted (B3R3N3H3) and N-substituted (B3H3N3R3) borazine derivatives can be tailored by modulating the electronic effects of R groups. It is also highlighted that the position of R substituents on the ring structure is crucial in tuning the aromaticity. Systematic comparisons of calculated aromaticity index values (i.e., via regression analyses and correlation matrices) ensure that the reported trends in aromaticity variation are accurately described, while the influence of different R groups on electron delocalization and related aromaticity phenomena is quantitatively assessed based on NBO analyses. The most relevant interactions impacting the aromatic character of investigated systems are (i) the electron conjugations occurring between the p lone pair electrons (LP) on the F, Cl, Br, O or N atoms, of R groups, and the π*(B=N) orbitals on the borazine ring (i.e., LP(R)→π*(B=N) donations), and (ii) the steric-exchange (Pauli) interactions between the same LP and the π(B=N) bonds (i.e., LP(R)↔π(B=N) repulsions), while inductive/field effects influence the aromaticity of the investigated trisubstituted borazine systems to a much lesser extent. This work highlights that although the aromatic character of borazine can be enhanced by grafting electron-donor substituents (F, OH, NH2, O-, NH-) on the N atoms, the stabilization due to aromaticity has only a moderate impact on these systems. By replacing the H substituents on the B atoms with similar R groups, the aromatic character of borazine is decreased due to strong exocyclic LP(R)→π*(B=N) donations affecting the delocalization of π-electrons on the borazine ring.
