The absolute configurations (AC) of natural occurring 6-hydroxyeuryopsin (1), of its acetyl derivative 2, and of eremophilanolide 8 were confirmed by comparison of the experimental vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra with theoretical curves generated from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Initial analyses were carried out using a Monte Carlo searching with the MMFF94 molecular mechanics force field. All MMFF94 conformers were further optimized using DFT at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory, followed by calculations of their vibrational frequencies at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p); the VCD spectra of 2 and 8 were also calculated at the B3PW91/DGDZVP level of theory. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental VCD curves unambiguously verified the 4S,5R,6S absolute configuration for 1 and 2, and the 1S,4S,5R,6S,8S,10S configuration for 8.
通过将实验振动圆二色性(VCD)光谱与密度泛函理论(DFT)计算生成的理论曲线进行比较,确定了天然存在的6 - 羟基广木香素(1)、其乙酰衍生物2和桉叶烷醇内酯8的绝对构型(AC)。初始分析使用MMFF94分子力学力场进行蒙特卡罗搜索。所有MMFF94构象异构体均在B3LYP/6 - 31G(d)理论水平下使用DFT进一步优化,随后在B3LYP/6 - 31G(d,p)水平计算其振动频率;2和8的VCD光谱也在B3PW91/DGDZVP理论水平下进行计算。理论和实验VCD曲线之间的良好一致性明确验证了1和2的4S,5R,6S绝对构型以及8的1S,4S,5R,6S,8S,10S构型。
