ABSTRACT

Results of the DFT and MP2 theoretical investigation of 2-pyridin-2-yl1H-benzimidazole intramolecular dynamics are presented. Structural parameters of 2-pyridin-2-yl-1H-benzimidazole conformers were obtained by these methods; barriers of internal rotation were estimated. GIAO-calculated NMR chemical shifts (1H and 13C) as obtained at various computational levels are reported for the 2-pyridin-2-yl1H-benzimidazole conformers. Comparative analysis of experimental and computer NMR spectroscopy results revealed that the GIAO method with B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory and the PCM approach can be used to estimate the NMR 1H and 13C spectra parameters of the 2-pyridin-2-yl-1H-benzimidazole.
