Abstract

The long-range scalar coupling constant between proton and fluorine nuclei, (5)J(HF), is observed to be larger than (3)J(HF) in the pyrimidinyl moiety of voriconazole. A set of smaller molecules is chosen (fluorobenzene, N-methyl-2-fluoropyridine, N-methyl-3-fluoropyridine, 3-fluoropyridine, 5-pyrimidine, and 2-fluoropyridine) to evaluate the influence of the nitrogen atom in the experimental J(HF) values. Spectral aliased pure shift heteronuclear single quantum coherence spectroscopy (SAPS-HSQC) is applied to determine the relative sign between the J(CF) and J(HF) scalar couplings. Theoretical calculations show that the (3)J(HF) and (5)J(HF) coupling constants can be described mainly by a Fermi contact (FC) transmission mechanism. A decomposition analysis of J(HF) in terms of localized molecular orbital (LMO) contributions allows us to determine that the interaction involving the nitrogen lone pair (LPN) is the main reason for the larger (5)J(HF) compared to (3)J(HF). Our analysis indicates that delocalization of LPN has a positive contribution to the long-range coupling, while a negative one is observed for (3)J(HF). (AU)
