Effect of 1,10-phenanthroline aromaticity in carboxylic acids:H-1 NMR spectroscopy, GIAO calculations and thermodynamic properties

摘要

Hydrogen bonding represents a class of chemical interactions, which are directly responsible for several physical properties, such as: energetic stabilities, boiling points, vibrational modes, bond lengths, etc. In this article, we examine from the point of view of H-1 NMR spectroscopy and GIAO calculations, the effects associated with the process of formation of the hydrogen bonds as they appear in the chemical shifts of the acidic hydrogens in the complexes between nitrogenated compounds, PHEN, BIPY and DIBIPY, and carboxylic acids, HOOCH, HOOCCH3 and HOOCC6H3. All computational simulations were performed using the quantum chemical methods B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) and omega B97X-D/def2-TZVP. The H-1 NMR spectroscopy results showed that, in both cases, the hydrogen nucleus of the OH group is the most affected in the process of hydrogen bond formation. For the complexes involving PHEN we observed that the hydrogen nucleus is more strongly shielded when compared with this signal in the corresponding complexes involving BIPY and DIBIPY.
