NMR chemical shifts of urea loaded copper benzoate. A joint solid-state NMR and DFT study

Assessment of DFT functionals with NMR chemical shifts

Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations of the magnetic shielding for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in solids provide an important contribution for understanding the experimentally observed chemical shifts. It is known that the calculated NMR shielding parameters for a particular nucleus in a series of compounds correlate well with the experimentally measured chemical shifts; however, t...

A DFT study of NMR parameters for MgO nanotubes

Magnesium oxide nanotubes of finite length are investigated by the Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level. The (6, 0) zigzag and (4, 4) armchair of MgO nanotubes were considered and nuclear magnetic resonance properties including isotropic and anisotropic chemical shielding parameters (CSI and CSA) were calculated for 25Mg and 17O atoms of the optimiz...

Contribution of high-energy conformations to NMR chemical shifts, a DFT-BOMD study.

This paper highlights the relevance of including the high-energy conformational states sampled by Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) in the calculation of time-averaged NMR chemical shifts. Our case study is the very flexible glycerol molecule that undergoes interconversion between conformers in a nonrandom way. Along the sequence of structures from one backbone conformer to another, tr...
