Systematic Gauge-Including Atomic Orbital-Hybrid Density Functional Theory Linear Regressions for 13C NMR Chemical Shifts Calculation

摘要

Density-functional theory calculations of the magnetic shielding for nuclear magnetic resonance provide an important contribution to understand the experimental values obtained in laboratory for chemical shifts present in the samples. From of a comparative of the performance of tenhybrid functional within of the framework of the density-functional theory using 10 different hybrid functionals with 3-21G (B1), 6-31G(d) (B2) and 6-31+ G(d, p) (B3) basis set, with intuit of evaluating of performance of the 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance from a representativeof the terpene class and a heterocyclic compound, (–)-loliolide ((7aR)-6-hydroxy-4,4,7a-trimethyl-6,7-dihydro-5H1-benzofuran-2-one). This molecule, satisfactorily, represents the main structure of this class, with conformational freedom, optical activity and a benzofuran nucleus. TheωB97X-D, MPW1K and HSEH1PBE functionals presented the best calculation performance. It is interesting to note that after the use of linear regressions all root mean square error values for ωB97X-D were lower than 3 ppm. These are 2.91 ppm (B1), 2.46 (B2) ppm and 2.62 ppm (B3).The information contained in this work can be used for the assignment of experimental nuclear magnetic resonance spectra and will motivate further studies involving the theoretical calculation of the chemical shift of 13C.
