A new method for refinement of 3D molecular structures by geometry optimization is presented. Prerequisites are a force field and a very fast procedure for the calculation of chemical shifts in every step of optimization. To the energy, provided by the force field (COSMOS force field), a pseudoenergy, depending on the difference between experimental and calculated chemical shifts, is added. In ...

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of atomic (129/131)Xe is used as a versatile probe of the structure and dynamics of various host materials, due to the sensitivity of the Xe NMR parameters to intermolecular interactions. The principles governing this sensitivity can be investigated using the prototypic system of interacting Xe atoms. In the pairwise additive approximation (PAA), the binary NMR ...

Sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate found in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables. it is an antioxidantand anti-cancer agent, and reduces blood pressure, and also has anti-allergic Effects.In this article, six theoretical methods have been used for calculation of physical parameters insolforaphane and several similar compounds. We calculated physical parameters like atomic charges.energy (AE) ...

Mass-independent isotope fractionations driven by differences in volumes and shapes of nuclei (the field shift effect) are known in several elements and are likely to be found in more. All-electron relativistic electronic structure calculations can predict this effect but at present are computationally intensive and limited to modeling small gas phase molecules and clusters. Density functional ...

We report the 470-MHz (11.7 T) 19F solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of 2-, 3-, and 4-fluorophenylalanine incorporated into the egg white lysozymes (EC 3.2.1.17) of chicken, pheasant, and duck, as well as spectra of 4-fluorotryptophan incorporated into chicken, California valley quail, and Bob White quail and 5- and 6-fluorotryptophan-labeled chicken lysozyme. The 19F solution N...
