After the geometry optimization at B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level,the calculations of the NMR chemical shifts of a series of stilbene analogues were carried out by means of Gauge Including Atomic Orbitals(GIAO) method at HF/6-31+G(d) level and B3LYP/6-311G+(2d,p) level,respectively.The 13C NMR chemical shifts calculated at both HF/6-31+G(d) and B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) levels are in agreement with the observed values.By virtue of a series of linear correction equations(δpred.=a+bδcalcd.) of the 13C chemical shifts,accurate prediction of 13C chemical shifts was achieved for the new stilbene compounds.For the 13C NMR chemical shifts calculated at HF/6-31+G(d) level,the linear correlation of δpred.with δexptl.is excellent,and the square of correlation coefficient,r2,is 0.9985.The maximum absolute difference between δpred.and δexptl.,Δδ,is 2.3,and the root-mean-square error between δpred.and δexptl.is 0.98.In the meantime,for those obtained at B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level,the linear correlation of δpred.with δexptl.is also excellent,and the square of correlation coefficient,r2,is up to 0.9987.The maximum absolute difference between δpred.and δexptl.,Δδ,is 2.2,and the root-mean-square error between δpred.and δexptl.is only 0.88.
