Calculation of intramolecular hydrogen bonding strength and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis of naphthazarin with chlorine substitution

Publication year: 2011 Source: Computational and Theoretical Chemistry, Available online 1 October 2011 M. Zahedi-Tabrizi, R. Farahati The hydrogen bond strength, geometry optimization andH NMR for naphthazarin (NZ) and its chlorine substitutions have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G∗∗ theoretical level.The calculated chemical shifts of the chelated proton for all molecules, using GIAO method, are well correlate with the calculated geometrical parameters results.According to the calculated results, substitutions near the hydroxyl groups and near the carbonyl groups increases and decreases the strength of the hydrogen bond, respectively.By natural bond orbital (NBO) method, the effect of substitution on the hydrogen bond strength, the charge distributions, steric effects, and electron delocalization in the studied compounds were investigated. The natural bond orbital analysis very well explains the calculated results of substitution of chlorine atoms on the hydrogen bond strength
