Characteristic Amide Vibrations

I - Most useful;

IR intense, less interference

(by solvent, other modes,etc)

Less mix (with other modes)

II - IR intense III - Raman Intense A – often obscured by solvent IV – VII – difficult to detect, discriminate ~3300 cm-1 ~1650 cm-1 1500-50 cm-1 1300-1250 cm-1 700 cm-1 mix

Also Raman Not Raman, unless RR Weak IR Multiple bands

Peptide conformation depends on f, y angles

Far UV absorbance broad, little fluorescence—coupling impact small

Detection requires method sensitive to amide coupling If (f,y) repeat, they determine secondary structure

Chromophores – amides are locally achiral CD has little signal without coupling, ideal for detection

  • - IR, Raman

Combining Techniques: Vibrational CD

“CD” in the infrared region

Probe chirality of vibrations  goal stereochemistry Many transitions / Spectrally resolved / Local probes Technology in place -- separate talk Weak phenomenon - limits S/N / Difficult < 700 cm-1 Same transitions as IR same frequencies, same resolution Band Shape from spatial relationships neighboring amides in peptides/proteins Relatively short length dependence AAn oligomers VCD have DA/A ~ const with n vibrational (Force Field) coupling plus dipole coupling Development -- structure-spectra relationships Small molecules – theory / Biomolecules -- empirical, Recent—peptide VCD can be simulated theoretically

SLIDE 11

Tiffany and Krimm in 1968 noted similarity of Proline II and poly-lysine ECD and suggested “extended coil” Problem -- CD has local sensitivity to chiral site

  • -IR not very discriminating

Nature of the peptide random coil form

Dukor and Keiderling 1991 with ECD, VCD, and IR showed Pron oligomers have characteristic random coil spectra Suggests -- local order, left-handed turn character

  • - no long range order in random coil form

Same spectral shape found in denatured proteins, short

  • ligopeptides, and transient forms

Relationship to “random coil” - compare Pron and Glun

IR ~ same, VCD - same shape, half size -- partially ordered

Shift frequency by  ~ (k/m)1/2 Tends to decouple from other modes, and can disrupt their exciton coupling Not intense, compare to polymer repeat Isolated oscillator (transition) in other modes Requirement: High S/N, good baseline focus on one band  dispersive VCD?
