Abstract
Short strong hydrogen bonds (SSHBs) play crucial role in many chemical processes. Recently, as the representative of SSHBs, [F-H-F]- was experimentally observed. [F-H-F]- has a symmetric structure, which can be described as a H+ acid shared by two terminal F- donors (F--H+-F-). To explore whether two identical donors are bound to result in SSHBs, we performed theoretical studies on a series of compounds (L-H+-L) with two identical electron donors (L corresponds to donors containing group 14, 15, 16 and 17 elements). The results show that identical donors do not definitely lead to SSHBs. Instead, typical hydrogen bonds also exist. We found that both electronegativity and basicity contribute to the patterns of hydrogen bonds, where more electronegative and weaker donors benefit to SSHBs. Besides, it was found that zero-point energies also respond to the hydrogen bonding systems. This systemic work is expected to provide more insights into SSHBs.

[PMID: 32711086 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2020.104081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2020] [Revised: 05/19/2020] [Accepted: 07/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
A new series of thiosemicarbazones were designed and synthesized. Their structures were confirmed by spectral characterization and single crystal XRD studies. Compounds MTSC-2 and ETSC-3 crystallized in the orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pbc21 andPca21respectively. Density functional theory computational studies were performed on MTSC-2 and ETSC-3 along with natural bond orbital analysis and Mulliken population analysis to study the structural and electronic properties of the thiosemicarbazones. The HOMOs of the two thiosemicarbazones are -5.2943 and -5.1133 eV respectively while the LUMOs are -1.6879 and -1.6398 eV respectively. The energy gap is 3.6064 and 3.4736 eV respectively. Molecular docking studies were performed to determine the binding mode of the thiosemicarbazones against β-tubulin. The theoretical studies were further supplemented with tubulin polymerization inhibition assay. All the four thiosemicarbazones proved effective in inhibiting the polymerization of α- and β-tubulin heterodimers into microtubules. The anticancer activity of these compounds showed their extreme potency against A549 and HepG2 cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 0.051 - 0.189 µm and 0.042 - 0.136 µm respectively. Compound PTSC-4 showed the highest activity both against tubulin and the two cancer cell lines. This was in correlation with the theoretical studies. Hence, these four compounds, specifically PTSC-4, can be considered to be potential leads in the development of non-metallic anticancer agents.

Abstract
Distinguishing the functionality of C-H···O hydrogen bonds (HBs) remains challenging, because their properties are difficult to quantify reliably. Herein, we present a study of the model methane-formaldehyde complex (MFC). Six stationary points on the MFC potential energy surface (PES) were obtained at the CCSD(T)/ANO2 level. The CCSDT(Q)/CBS interaction energies of the conformers range from only -1.12 kcal mol-1 to -0.33 kcal mol-1, denoting a very flat PES. Notably, only the lowest energy stationary point (MFC1) corresponds to a genuine minimum, whereas all other stationary points-including the previously studied ideal case of ae(C-H···O) = 180°-exhibit some degree of freedom that leads to MFC1. Despite the flat PES, we clearly see that the HB properties of MFC1 align with those of the prototypical water dimer O-H···O HB. Each HB property generally becomes less prominent in the higher-energy conformers. Only the MFC1 conformer prominently exhibits (1) elongated C-H donor bonds, (2) attractive C-H···O═C interactions, (3) n(O) → σ*(C-H) hyperconjugation, (4) critical points in the electron density from Bader's method and from the noncovalent interactions method, (5) positively charged donor hydrogen, and (6) downfield NMR chemical shifts and nonzero 2J(CM-HM···OF) coupling constants. Based on this research, some issues merit further study. The flat PES hinders reliable determinations of the HB-induced shifts of the C-H stretches; a similarly difficult challenge is observed for the experiment. The role of charge transfer in HBs remains an intriguing open question, although our BLW and NBO computations suggest that it is relevant to the C-H···O HB geometries. These issues notwithstanding, the prominence of the HB properties in MFC1 serves as clear evidence that the MFC is predominantly bound by a C-H···O HB.
