Abstract

V originále

This study aims to cast light on the physico-chemical nature and energetic of the non-conventional CH...O/N H-bonds in the biologically important natural nucleobase pairs using a comprehensive quantum-chemical approach. As a whole, the 36 biologically important pairs, involving canonical and rare tautomers of nucleobases, were studied by means of all available up-to-date state-of-the-art quantum-chemical techniques along with quantum theory “Atoms in molecules” (QTAIM), Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis, Grunenberg’s compliance constants theory, geometrical and vibrational analyses to identify the CH...O/N interactions, reveal their physico-chemical nature and estimate their strengths as well as contribution to the overall base-pairs stability.
