Protonations of isaxonine phosphate are studied by performing CNDO/2 and CNDO/S molecular orbital calculations. Results are compared with previously published data. Wiberg's bond indices and S character percentages calculated using electronic populations are shown to correctly predict variations of bond lengths and bond angles as well as [Formula: see text] coupling constants. A good prediction of proton chemical shift variations using a calculation of the screening constant was obtained.

The magnitude of a one-bond C–H coupling constant depends upon the chemical environment of the hydrogen atom and, especially, upon its stereochemical relationship to vicinal lone electron pairs. However, a lone electron pair is not essential for the observation of a stereoelectronic effect, since even cyclohexane exhibits different axial and equatorial C–H coupling constants. We propose the name "Perlin Effect" to describe such observations. An analysis of the extensive experimental data regarding the Perlin Effect reveals that, in cyclohexane and in six-membered rings having one or more heteroatoms of the first row attached to the carbon of interest, 1JC–H is always larger for an equatorial hydrogen than for an axial hydrogen. The magnitude of the Perlin Effect is reduced when the carbon carrying the hydrogen of interest is attached to first row and second row atoms or heteroatoms, and it reverses when the carbon atom carries two heteroatoms from below the first row.The existence of the Perlin Effect in nuclear magnetic resonance spectra is reminiscent of an infrared effect known as the Bohlmann bands, whose origin has previously been explained by quantitative perturbational molecular orbital (PMO) theory in terms of the effects of lone electron pairs upon the lengths and strengths and, therefore, the chemical reactivities of vicinal C—H bonds. Since the magnitude of a one-bond C–H coupling constant is expected to vary inversely with bond length, the origins of the Perlin Effect and of the Bohlmann bands would seem to be the same, i.e., the longer (weaker) C—H bond has the smaller one-bond coupling constant. This expectation has now been confirmed: for 25 molecules, representing a total of 35 different kinds of C—H bonds, the bond lengths, stretching force constants, and charge distributions have been determined from fully optimized 6-31G* molecular orbital calculations. In nine of ten cases for which experimental data exist for pairs of diastereomeric or diastereotopic hydrogens, the shorter C—H bond of the pair has the larger coupling constant; in the tenth case, the experimental difference is only 1–2 Hz. Moreover, a global analysis of the data in terms of the equation J = A + BqCqH + C/r, where J is an experimental coupling constant, q is a total atomic charge, and r is a C—H bond length, correlates 23 different types of C—H bonds linearly with a correlation coefficient of 0.915. The C parameter is the leading term of the correlation. Among the systems studied theoretically are eight molecules of the type CH3CHXY (Y = OH, SH; X = F, Cl, OH, SH), which are representative of systems containing both endocyclic and exocyclic first row and second row anomeric effects. The exocyclic effect is found to be very similar for first row and second row substituents, but the endocyclic effect is larger for the first row substituent. Both findings agree with experimental data in solution. Finally, quantitative PMO analysis has been employed to analyse the origins of the different C—H bond lengths in the various molecules of the study. Keywords: anomeric effect, PMO analysis, NMR, stereochemistry, molecular orbital calculations.

The Difference

Abinitio molecular orbital calculations are reported for several cyclic and acyclic sulfones. The geometries of XSO2Y, where X, Y = H, F, or CH3 are optimized at the STO-3G* level. Similar calculations are reported for the smallest cyclic sulfone, thiirane-1,1 -dioxide, as well as the corresponding sulfoxide, thiirane-1-oxide, and the parent sulfide, thiirane. Where comparison with experiment is possible, the agreement is satisfactory. In order to consider the possibility of substantial differences between axial and equatorial S—O bonds in the gas phase, as observed in the crystal structure of 5H,8H-dibenzo[d,f][1,2]-dithiocin-1,1-dioxide, STO-3G* calculations are reported for a six-membered ring, thiane-1,1-dioxide, and a model eight-membered ring. Limited geometry optimization of the axial and equatorial S—O bonds in the chair conformations of the six- and eight-membered rings leads to bond lengths of 1.46 Å with the difference being less than 0.01 Å.

The influence of overlap interactions between the bridging ligands and the metal d orbitals on the super-exchange coupling constant are studied by means of ab-initio restricted Hartree-Fock molecular orbital calculations. The interaction between the magnetic d orbitals and the HOMOs of the carboxylate oxygen atoms are investigated in homologous asymmetrically dibridged dicopper(II) complexes which have significantly different - 2J values (the energy separation between the spin-triplet and spin-singlet states). In order to determine the nature of the fronter orbitals, extended Hückel molecular orbital (EHMO) calculations are also reported. The differences in the magnitude of the coupling constants and magnetic behaviour are rationalized in terms of the bridging ligand orbital complementary / countercomplementary concept.

The exact analysis of the ABC type absorption due to the —CH2OH group of 3β-acetoxy-5β,6β-oxidocholestan-19-ol provides two vicinal HCOH coupling constants for dihedral angles of 80° and 160°. A least squares fit of these and previous data in the literature to a "Karplus" relation provides values for the coefficients in such an equation. The theoretical justification for such a relation has been obtained by extended Hückel molecular orbital calculations for methanol with different dihedral angles. The practical limitations in, and applications of the relation are discussed. An effect of solvent on the vicinal coupling constants is also noted and discussed.

Spin Spin Coupling

Molecular orbital calculations, at the INDO level, of the spin–spin coupling constants over three bonds between carbon-13 and protons are reported for a number of simple molecules. In propane the coupling depends on dihedral angle in the Karplus manner. Fluorine substituents cause changes in the computed coupling which are best described as alternating with the number of bonds intervening between the substituent and the coupled nuclei. Finer details of this phenomenon are discussed and calculations on propyllithium are performed. Replacement of a central carbon atom in propane by a heteroatom does not radically alter the computed couplings. The presence of a carbonyl group in the coupling path results in an overestimate of the magnitude of the coupling. In propene the coupling between 13C in position 1 and a methyl proton displays a maximum when the C—H bond of the methyl group lies parallel to the π orbitals. In toluene the coupling to a methyl proton is insensitive to the dihedral angle over half its range, a result of importance to structural studies. Among other molecules under consideration are methylacetylene, propionaldehyde, and the strained bicyclobutane. It is suggested that in certain instances the mean of the predictions from the INDO and CNDO/2 procedures may agree better with experiment than will the prediction from either procedure alone. Calculations on fluorobenzene and 1,2-difluorobenzene suggest that the main experimental trends of the couplings between carbon and protons within the benzene ring are reproduced. Such is perhaps not true for the five-membered heterocycles.

ABSTRACTMolecular orbital calculations on hydroxyacid molecules with first- and secondrow X-cations (X = Li through N and Na through S) yield bond lengths and angles that mimic those of chemically similar minerals. These bond lengths are used to find a formula giving bond length as a function of a bond-strength parameter that reproduces XO bond lengths in crystals with main-group X-cations from all six rows of the periodic table within 0.05Å on average. The molecular orbital calculations also provide insights into reaction energies, physical properties of crystals such as electron density distributions, and data not amenable to direct measurement. They also provide a basis from which computational models for mineral structures may be constructed.
