In this study at the MP2/6-311++G(2df,pd)//B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of quantum-mechanical theory it was explored conformational variety of the isolated quercetin molecule due to the mirror-symmetrical hindered turnings of the O3H, O5H and O7H hydroxyl groups, belonging to the A and C rings, around the exocyclic C–O bonds. These dipole active conformational transformations proceed through the 72 transition states (TSs; C1 point symmetry) with non-orthogonal orientation of the hydroxyl groups relatively the plane of the A or C rings of the molecule (HO7C7C8/HO7C7C6 = ±(89.9–93.3), HO5C5C10 = ±(108.9–114.4) and HO3C3C4 = ±(113.6–118.8 degrees) (here and below signs ‘±’ corresponds to the enantiomers)) with Gibbs free energy barrier of activation ΔΔGTS in the range 3.51–16.17 kcal·mol−1 under the standard conditions (T = 298.1 K and pressure 1 atm): ΔΔGTSO7H (3.51–4.27) < ΔΔGTSO3H (9.04–11.26) < ΔΔGTSO5H (12.34–16.17 kcal mol−1). Conformational dynamics of the O3H and O5H groups is partially controlled by the intramolecular specific interactions O3H…O4, C2′/C6′H…O3, O3H…C2′/C6′, O5H…O4 and O4…O5, which are flexible and cooperative. Dipole-active interconversions of the enantiomers of the non-planar conformers of the quercetin molecule (C1 point symmetry) is realized via the 24 TSs with C1 point symmetry (HO3C3C2C1 = ±(11.0–19.1), HC2′/C6′C1′C2 = ±(0.6–2.9) and C3C2C1′C2′/C3C2C1′C6′ = ±(1.7–9.1) degree; ΔΔGTS = 1.65–5.59 kcal·mol−1), which are stabilized by the participation of the intramolecular C2′/C6′H…O1 and O3H…HC2′/C6′ H-bonds. Investigated conformational rearrangements are rather quick processes, since the time, which is necessary to acquire thermal equilibrium does not exceed 6.5 ns.
