NMR Spectroscopy – Fluorinated organic compounds

Growing interest of Fluorinated organic compounds: Biological activity Fluorine incorporated to:

Alpha-helices, proteins and bioactive small molecules as NMR probes for aggregation, microenvironmental structure and binding site interactions.

Unusually large F-F couplings in unsaturated compounds Previous studies on the application of NMR as quantum computers (QC) Nuclear spins as quantum bits The need for nonvanishing J-couplings in molecules of reasonable size.

NMR quantum computers

The inherent power of a QC relies on the fact that the dimension of the Hilbert space

grows exponentially with the number of particles allowing large-scale parallelization by exploiting the superposition principle of QM. Madi et al. JCP 109, 10603 (1998).

Design of molecular NMR quantum computers: Several criteria:

  • 1. Prefered nuclei: 1H, 13C, 15N, 19F (I = ½ and high natural abundance)
  • 2. Solubility.
  • 3. Large J coupling between every pair of spins used as qubits.
  • 4. Chemical shift not close between qubits.
  • 5. Long enough spin-spin relaxation time. Liquid systems are the most

suitable.

NMR Spectroscopy – H-bonded nucleic acid

Hidrogen bonds Stabilization of protein and nucleic acid secondary structure Modulate the speed and specificity of enzymatic reactions NMR parameters J coupling through H bonds is very important for structure determination. Trans-hydrogen bond 3hJNC exist in proteins, like human ubiquitin (J ~ 0.25 to 0.92 Hz);

Cornilescu et al JACS 121, 2949 (1999), Cordier and Grzesiek JACS 121, 1601 (1999).

Which are the mechanisms that controls the trans-hydrogen bonds in proteins? Is it possible to predict their values?

Theoretical analysis of ... Summary

Measurable NMR spectroscopic parameters in unsaturated fluorinated compounds

We have predicted measurable long-range F-F and C-F J-couplings (J > 1 Hz) in unsaturated

compounds for distances longer than 1.2 nm.

The number of bond-separation between measurable coupled F-F and C-F nuclei is N > 9, which

is longer than previous findings.

Fluorine substituted polyenes and polyynes are good candidates to be used as NMR QC.

... H-bonded aminoacids (Formamide-Formamide; Formamide-Formamidine)

Correlated ab initio calculations of NMR spectroscopic parameters of fragments of H-bonded

aminoacids are available and give reliable results.

H-bonded H, O and C change their magnetic properties for Fa-Fa and Fa-Fi in such a way that it

can be used not only for conformational studies but as a magnetic sensor.
