Naphthazarin Derivatives in the Light of Intra- and Intermolecular Forces.

ABSTRACT: Our long-term investigations have been devoted the characterization of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in cyclic compounds. Our previous work covers naphthazarin, the parent compound of two systems discussed in the current work: 2,3-dimethylnaphthazarin (1) and 2,3-dimethoxy-6-methylnaphthazarin (2). Intramolecular hydrogen bonds and substituent effects in these compounds were analyzed on the basis of Density Functional Theory (DFT), Møller-Plesset second-order perturbation theory (MP2), Coupled Clusters with Singles and Doubles (CCSD) and Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics (CPMD). The simulations were carried out in the gas and crystalline phases. The nuclear quantum effects were incorporated a posteriori using the snapshots taken from ab initio trajectories. Further, they were used to solve a vibrational Schrödinger equation. The proton reaction path was studied using B3LYP, ωB97XD and PBE functionals with a 6-311++G(2d,2p) basis set. Two energy minima (deep and shallow) were found, indicating that the proton transfer phenomena could occur in the electronic ground state. Next, the electronic structure and topology were examined in the molecular and proton transferred (PT) forms. The Atoms In Molecules (AIM) theory was employed for this purpose. It was found that the hydrogen bond is stronger in the proton transferred (PT) forms. In order to estimate the dimers' stabilization and forces responsible for it, the Symmetry-Adapted Perturbation Theory (SAPT) was applied. The energy decomposition revealed that dispersion is the primary factor stabilizing the dimeric forms and crystal structure of both compounds. The CPMD results showed that the proton transfer phenomena occurred in both studied compounds, as well as in both phases. In the case of compound 2, the proton transfer events are more frequent in the solid state, indicating an influence of the environmental effects on the bridged proton dynamics. Finally, the vibrational signatures were computed for both compounds using the CPMD trajectories. The Fourier transformation of the autocorrelation function of atomic velocity was applied to obtain the power spectra. The IR spectra show very broad absorption regions between 700 cm-1-1700 cm-1 and 2300 cm-1-3400 cm-1 in the gas phase and 600 cm-1-1800 cm-1 and 2200 cm-1-3400 cm-1 in the solid state for compound 1. The absorption regions for compound 2 were found as follows: 700 cm-1-1700 cm-1 and 2300 cm-1-3300 cm-1 for the gas phase and one broad absorption region in the solid state between 700 cm-1 and 3100 cm-1. The obtained spectroscopic features confirmed a strong mobility of the bridged protons. The inclusion of nuclear quantum effects showed a stronger delocalization of the bridged protons.

Project description:Intra- and intermolecular forces competition was investigated in the 9,10-anthraquinone (1) and its derivatives both in vacuo and in the crystalline phase. The 1,8-dihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone (2) and 1,8-dinitro-4,5-dihydroxy-anthraquinone (3) contain Resonance-Assisted Hydrogen Bonds (RAHBs). The intramolecular hydrogen bonds properties were studied in the electronic ground and excited states employing Møller-Plesset second-order perturbation theory (MP2), Density Functional Theory (DFT) method in its classical formulation as well as its time-dependent extension (TD-DFT). The proton potential functions were obtained via scanning the OH distance and the dihedral angle related to the OH group rotation. The topological analysis was carried out on the basis of theories of Atoms in Molecules (AIM-molecular topology, properties of critical points, AIM charges) and Electron Localization Function (ELF-2D maps showing bonding patterns, calculation of electron populations in the hydrogen bonds). The Symmetry-Adapted Perturbation Theory (SAPT) was applied for the energy decomposition in the dimers. Finally, Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics (CPMD) simulations were performed to shed light onto bridge protons dynamics upon environmental influence. The vibrational features of the OH stretching were revealed using Fourier transformation of the autocorrelation function of atomic velocity. It was found that the presence of OH and NO2 substituents influenced the geometric and electronic structure of the anthraquinone moiety. The AIM and ELF analyses showed that the quantitative differences between hydrogen bonds properties could be neglected. The bridged protons are localized on the donor side in the electronic ground state, but the Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer (ESIPT) was noticed as a result of the TD-DFT calculations. The hierarchy of interactions determined by SAPT method indicated that weak hydrogen bonds play modifying role in the organization of these crystal structures, but primary ordering factor is dispersion. The CPMD crystalline phase results indicated bridged proton-sharing in the compound 2.

Project description:The intra- and intermolecular interactions of selected quinolone carboxylic acid derivatives were studied in monomers, dimers and crystals. The investigated compounds are well-recognized as medicines or as bases for further studies in drug design. We employed density functional theory (DFT) in its classical formulation to develop gas-phase and solvent reaction field (PCM) models describing geometric, energetic and electronic structure parameters for monomers and dimers. The electronic structure was investigated based on the atoms in molecules (AIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) theories. Special attention was devoted to the intramolecular hydrogen bonds (HB) present in the investigated compounds. The characterization of energy components was performed using symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). Finally, the time-evolution methods of Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics (CPMD) and path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) were employed to describe the hydrogen bond dynamics as well as the spectroscopic signatures. The vibrational features of the O-H stretching were studied using Fourier transformation of the autocorrelation function of atomic velocity. The inclusion of quantum nuclear effects provided an accurate depiction of the bridged proton delocalization. The CPMD and PIMD simulations were carried out in the gas and crystalline phases. It was found that the polar environment enhances the strength of the intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The SAPT analysis revealed that the dispersive forces are decisive factors in the intermolecular interactions. In the electronic ground state, the proton-transfer phenomena are not favourable. The CPMD results showed generally that the bridged proton is localized at the donor side, with possible proton-sharing events in the solid-phase simulation of stronger hydrogen bridges. However, the PIMD enabled the quantitative estimation of the quantum effects inclusion-the proton position was moved towards the bridge midpoint, but no qualitative changes were detected. It was found that the interatomic distance between the donor and acceptor atoms was shortened and that the bridged proton was strongly delocalized.
