Abstract
In the pursuit of improved compound identification and database search tasks, this study explores heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) spectra simulation and matching methodologies. HSQC spectra serve as unique molecular fingerprints, enabling a valuable balance of data collection time and information richness. We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the following four HSQC simulation techniques: ACD/Labs (ACD), MestReNova (MNova), Gaussian NMR calculations (DFT), and a graph-based neural network (ML). For the latter two techniques, we developed a reconstruction logic to combine proton and carbon 1D spectra into HSQC spectra. The methodology involved the implementation of three peak-matching strategies (minimum-sum, Euclidean-distance, and Hungarian distance) combined with three padding strategies (zero-padding, peak-truncated, and nearest-neighbor double assignment). We found that coupling these strategies with a robust simulation technique facilitates the accurate identification of correct molecules from similar analogues (regio- and stereoisomers) and allows for fast and accurate large database searches. Furthermore, we demonstrated the efficacy of the best-performing methodology by rectifying the structures of a set of previously misidentified molecules. This research indicates that effective HSQC spectral simulation and matching methodologies significantly facilitate molecular structure elucidation. Furthermore, we offer a Google Colab notebook for researchers to use our methods on their own data (https://github.com/AstraZeneca/hsqc_structure_elucidation.git).

Characteristic chromanone acids from Calophyllum membranaceum: Determination of C-3 configuration and anti-inflammatory activity. PHYTOCHEMISTRY 2024; 217:113902.

Abstract
One undescribed homologous furanochromanone (1) featuring a 6/6/5/3 tetracyclic skeleton and four highly oxidized pyranochromanones (2-5), along with a set of four pyranochromanone stereoisomers [(±)-6a and (±)-6b], were isolated from the leaves of Calophyllum membranaceum Gardn. Et Champ. Their structures were elucidated by using spectroscopic data, Snatzke's method, quantum-chemical calculations, and X-ray crystallographic analysis. The correlation of characteristic Cotton effects and specific chemical shifts with C-3 configuration provided a convenient approach to assign the C-3 configuration of 2,3-dimethylchromanones. The stereochemical assignments of 3-OH substituted pyranochromanones by quantum-based NMR methods following single/double MTPA derivatization were consistent with the ECD/NMR prediction, which verified the feasibility and reliability of the proposed empirical rule. The underlying mechanism was further clarified by conformational and molecular orbital analyses. Moreover, biological evaluation and binding assays demonstrated that compound 3 (KD = 0.45 μM) tightly binds to the TLR4-MD2 target, thereby inhibiting the TLR4/MyD88-dependent and -independent signal pathways. This study provides the first evidence that Calophyllum chromanones are a novel structural type of TLR4 inhibitors, exerting their anti-inflammatory effects by disrupting the binding between TLR4 and MD2.

Abstract
New sulfonate-based chiral salts were prepared from amino alcohols and sodium hydroxymethanesulfonate, vinyl sulfonate, or sultone. The synthesis started with different amino acids from the chiral pool and gave the desired products in just four steps. After cation metathesis, the salts were explored as chiral solvating agents (CSAs) in NMR studies. The new chiral ionic liquids (CILs) were successfully able to interact with different chiral guest molecules and formed diastereomeric aggregates. In some cases, baseline separation was observed. The influence of the structural differences in the CIL as well as the structural requirements of the guest molecule is discussed.

Abstract
A new flexible germacranolide (1, lobatolide H) was isolated from the aerial parts of Neurolaena lobata. The structure elucidation was performed by classical NMR experiments and DFT NMR calculations. Altogether, 80 theoretical level combinations with existing 13C NMR scaling factors were tested, and the best performing ones were applied on 1. 1H and 13C NMR scaling factors were also developed for two combinations utilizing known exomethylene containing derivatives, and the results were complemented by homonuclear coupling constant (JHH) and TDDFT-ECD calculations to elucidate the stereochemistry of 1. Lobatolide H possessed remarkable antiproliferative activity against human cervical tumor cell lines with different HPV status (SiHa and C33A), induced cell cycle disturbance and exhibited a substantial antimigratory effect in SiHa cells.

Abstract
Structural elucidation has always been challenging, and misassignment remains a stringent issue in the field of natural products. The growing interest in discovering unknown, complex natural structures accompanies the increasing awareness concerning misassignments in the community. The combination of various spectroscopic methods with molecular modeling has gained popularity in recent years. In this work, we demonstrated, for the first time, its power to fully elucidate the 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional structures of two epimers in an epimeric mixture of 6-hydroxyhippeastidine. DFT calculation of chemical shifts was first performed to assist the assignment of planar structures. Furthermore, relative and absolute configurations were established by three different ways of computer-assisted structure elucidation (CASE) coupled with ORD/ECD/VCD spectroscopies. In addition, the significant added value of OR/ORD computations to relative and absolute configuration determination was also revealed. Remarkably, the differentiation of two enantiomeric scaffolds (crinine and haemanthamine) was accomplished via OR/ORD calculations with cross-validation by ECD and VCD.

Abstract
NMR data prediction is increasingly important in structure elucidation. The impact of force field selection was assessed, along with geometry and energy cutoffs. Based on the conclusions, we propose a new approach named mix-J-DP4, which provides a remarkable increase in the confidence level of complex stereochemical assignments-100% in our molecular test set-with a very modest increment in computational cost.

Abstract
The reported synthesis of stemara-13(14)-en-18-ol, which revealed that the structure of this natural product was misassigned, prompted an investigation using density functional theory methods into the structural reassignment of this natural product and related diterpenoids extracted from Calceolaria plants. 1H and 13C chemical shift predictions led to the reassignment of relative configuration, and in one case the carbon skeleton, of several diterpenoids from Calceolaria. In many of these cases, the chemical shift of the vinylic hydrogen was found to be diagnostic.

Abstract
Diaportholides A (1) and B (2), two polyketides with ɑ-pyrone moieties, were isolated from the cultures of an endophytic Diaporthe sp. ECN371 isolated from Orixa japonica, together with four known polyketides, phomopsolide B (3), phomopsolidones A (4) and B (5), and 5-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-γ-oxo-2-furanbutanoic acid (6). The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by extensive analysis of NMR and MS spectroscopic data. Furthermore, the structure of 2 was confirmed by analyzing the single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The luciferase reporter gene assay revealed that among all isolated compounds (1-6), 3, a known ɑ-pyrone derivative, exhibited agonistic activity against the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ɑ, which is an important regulator of lipid metabolism in humans.

Abstract
A benchmark density functional theory (DFT) study of 1H NMR chemical shifts for data sets comprising 200 chemical shifts, including complex natural products, has been carried out to assess the performance of DFT methods. Two new benchmark data sets, NMRH33 and NMRH148, have been established. The meta-GGA revTPSS performs remarkably well against the NMRH33 benchmark set (mean absolute deviation (MAD), 0.10 ppm; maximum deviation (max), 0.26 ppm) with the smallest MAD of all evaluated functionals. The best-performing double-hybrid density functional (DHDF), revDSD-BLYP (MAD, 0.16 ppm; max, 0.35 ppm), performs similarly to hybrid-GGA methods (e.g., mPW1PW91/6-311G(d) (MAD, 0.15 ppm; max, 0.36 ppm)), but at a considerably higher computational cost. The results indicate that currently available double-hybrid DFT methods offer no benefit over GGA (including hybrid and meta) functionals in the calculation of 1H NMR chemical shifts.

Abstract
Covering: 2015 up to the end of 2020Even in the golden age of NMR, the number of natural products being incorrectly assigned is becoming larger every day. The use of quantum NMR calculations coupled with sophisticated data analysis provides ideal complementary tools to facilitate the elucidation process in challenging cases. Among the current computational methodologies to perform this task, the DP4+ probability is a popular and widely used method. This updated version of Goodman's DP4 synergistically combines NMR calculations at higher levels of theory with the Bayesian analysis of both scaled and unscaled data. Since its publication in late 2015, the use of DP4+ to solve controversial natural products has substantially grown, with several predictions being confirmed by total synthesis. To date, the structures of more than 200 natural products were determined with the aid of DP4+. However, all that glitters is not gold. Besides its intrinsic limitations, on many occasions it has been improperly used with potentially important consequences on the quality of the assignment. Herein we present a critical revision on how the scientific community has been using DP4+, exploring the strengths of the method and how to obtain optimal results from it. We also analyze the weaknesses of DP4+, and the paths to by-pass them to maximize the confidence in the structural elucidation.

Abstract
Penitol A (1), a new citrinin derivative with a rare tricyclic spiro skeleton, was isolated from a coral-derived strain of the fungus Penicillium citrinum. In addition, penicitols E-I (2-6), five new citrinin analogues, were coisolated. Their structures were determined by an analysis of 1D/2D NMR and HRESIMS data, statistical DP4+ analyses based on DFT-GIAO NMR calculations, quantum chemistry ECD calculations, and a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The structures of penicitol A (7) and two related synthetic intermediates were revised. Biological evaluation results revealed that penitol A (1) exhibited cytotoxic activity against K562 tumor cells, with an IC50 value of 8.8 μM. A proposed route of formation of compounds 1-7 was reported.

Abstract
Aquiledine and cheliensisine are flavoalkaloids isolated from Aquilegia ecalcarata and Goniothalamus cheliensis, respectively. Different structures have been proposed for these flavoalkaloids; however, their 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic data were virtually identical. In this study, the structures of aquiledine and cheliensisine were revised on the basis of the DFT calculation of NMR data including DP4+ and J-DP4 analysis, as well as specific rotations. Similarly, the structure of isoaquiledine, a regioisomer of aquiledine, was also revised. A biosynthetic pathway of these flavoalkaloids is proposed.
