Popis: | The effect of hydrogen bonding on the amide group vibrational spectra has traditionally been rationalized by invoking a resonance model where hydrogen bonding impacts the amide functional group by stabilizing its [(-)O-C=NH (+)] structure over the [O=C-NH] structure. However, Triggs and Valentini's UV-Raman study of solvation and hydrogen bonding effects on epsilon-caprolactum, N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMA), and N-methylacetamide (NMA) ( Triggs, N. E.; Valentini, J. J. J. Phys. Chem. 1992, 96, 6922-6931) casts doubt on the validity of this model by demonstrating that, contrary to the resonance model prediction, carbonyl hydrogen bonding does not impact the AmII' frequency of DMA. In this study, we utilize density functional theory (DFT) calculations to examine the impact of hydrogen bonding on the C=O and N-H functional groups of NMA, which is typically used as a simple model of the peptide bond. Our calculations indicate that, as expected, the hydrogen bonding frequency dependence of the AmI vibration predominantly derives from the C=O group, whereas the hydrogen bonding frequency dependence of the AmII vibration primarily derives from N-H hydrogen bonding. In contrast, the hydrogen bonding dependence of the conformation-sensitive AmIII band derives equally from both C=O and N-H groups and thus, is equally responsive to hydrogen bonding at the C=O or N-H site. Our work shows that a clear understanding of the normal mode composition of the amide vibrations is crucial for an accurate interpretation of the hydrogen bonding dependence of amide vibrational frequencies. |
