Abstract

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters of 17O, 14N/15N, and 2H/1H nuclei were evaluated in two available neutron crystalline structures of N-methylacetamide (NMA) at 250 and 276 K, NMA-I and NMA-II, respectively. Density functional theory calculations were performed by B3LYP method and 6-311++G** and IGLO-II type basis sets to calculate the electric field gradient (EFG) and chemical shielding (CS) tensors at the sites of mentioned nuclei. In order to investigate hydrogen bonds (HBs) effects on NMR tensors, calculations were performed on four-model systems of NMA: an optimized isolated gas-phase, crystalline monomers, crystalline dimers, and crystalline trimers. Comparing the calculated results reveal the influence of N–H···O=C and C–H···O=C HB types on the NMR tensors which are observable by the evaluated parameters including quadrupole coupling constant, C Q, and isotropic CS, σ iso. Furthermore, the results demonstrate more influence of HB on the EFG and CS tensors of NMA at 276 K rather than that of 250 K.
