Abstract
Computational investigation at the BHandHLYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory of the gas-phase tautomerism of 2- and 4-pyridones confirmed the slight prevalence of lactim in the case of the former, but its dominance in the case of the latter, as shown previously. Examination of aromaticity by using HOMA, EDDB, NBOdel, NICS and AICD led to the conclusion that tautomerization of 4-pyridone results in greater aromaticity gain. It is also driven by the Pauli repulsion relief, which was revealed by the tautomerization energy decomposition analysis. By contrast, in the case of 2-pyridone, lactim is favoured by orbital and electrostatic interactions and disfavoured by the Pauli repulsion. Aromaticity gain in this case is smaller. The position of the tautomeric equilibrium can be modulated by substituent inductive effects (Cl and F), inductive and resonance effects (NH2 and NO2), hydrogen bonding (NO2), and medium polarity, the increase of which increases lactam population.

Quantum-chemical study on the relative stability of sildenafil tautomers. Struct Chem 2021.

Abstract
AbstractThe tautomeric equilibrium of sildenafil molecule was theoretically studied using B3LYP and M06-2X density functional theory (DFT) methods in connection with aug-cc-pVDZ correlation consistent basis set. Calculations were performed for gas phase and water solution conditions modelled by polarizable continuum model (PCM). Three tautomeric forms are possible. Two keto forms: A — where the tautomeric proton in more distant from carbonyl group and B — where it is closer, and one enol form denoted, C. Both DFT methods qualitatively give similar tautomer stability order: B > A > C. The B tautomer is dominant in gas phase and water environment, whereas the C tautomer is too high in energy to be present in the tautomeric mixture. Regarding the A tautomer, it is not present in the gas phase but is present in small amounts in water solution. According to B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ, the relative Gibbs-free energies for A and C relative to B are 10.05 kcal/mol and 11.91 kcal/mol for gas phase and 5.49 kcal/mol and 12.49 kcal/mol for water solution. According to M06-2X/aug-cc-pVDZ, the relative Gibbs-free energies for A and C are 9.12 kcal/mol and 10.60 kcal/mol for gas phase and 4.27 kcal/mol and 10.23 kcal/mol for water solution. Therefore, for in vivo conditions, we expect that the B tautomer is dominant, and there may exist small amounts of the A tautomer. The C enol tautomer is not present at all. This picture is very different from the parent tautomeric system: 4-hydroxypyrimidine/4-pyrimidinone where the C enol tautomer is less stable than keto B only by about 1 kcal/mol in the gas phase and the A keto tautomer is the least stable and not present in the tautomeric mixture. In order to understand these differences, we performed additional calculations for a series of parent molecules starting from 4-hydroxypyrimidine/4-pyrimidinone, going through two in-between model molecules and ending at Sildenafil molecule. We found that the most important reasons of C form destabilization are dearomatization of the 6-membered ring caused by the fusion with pyrazole ring, lack of strong intramolecular hydrogen bond in C form of sildenafil and presence of destabilizing steric interaction of oxygen and nitrogen atoms of two 6-memberd rings in this tautomer.

Abstract
Vibrational spectra of 1:1 clusters of 2-pyridone (2PY) with water, ammonia, and other hydrogen bond-forming molecules have been measured by several experimental groups over the past two decades. Complex vibrational signatures associated with the N-H stretching fundamental at 3 μm are often observed. Several anharmonic coupling schemes have been proposed; however, the origin of these commonly seen complex features remains unclear. In this work, we present our theoretical analysis on the structure and vibrational spectra of these clusters using ab initio random search and ab initio anharmonic algorithms, respectively. Low-energy conformers were found to be hydrogen-bonded clusters and their vibrational spectra at 3 μm were simulated with ab initio anharmonic algorithms. We demonstrate that simple anharmonic mechanisms of Fermi resonance (FR), coupling between NH stretching modes, and overtone/combinations of skeleton modes of 2PY can lead to the complex vibrational signatures observed experimentally. Since this vibrational coupling scheme is inherent to the cis-amides with adjacent N-H and C═O groups when a hydrogen bond is formed with 2PY as the donor and acceptor, we believe that such a phenomenon is general to other hydrogen-bonding systems with the same functional group.

Abstract
There is no experimental information about the tautomerism of Favipiravir (T-705). Therefore, its tautomeric state was predicted by using density functional theory in gas phase and in solution (toluene, acetonitrile and water). The results have shown that, in neutral state, the enol form is strongly dominating in both gas phase and solution. The carboxamide group is easily protonated in the presence of acid, which leads to shift of the tautomeric equilibrium toward the keto tautomer. In order to validate the theoretical predictions, 2-hydroxy pyridine and 2-hydroxy pyrazine were also included in the set of studied compounds. The available experimental data about their tautomerism are in very good agreement with the theoretical predictions, which validate the conclusions made for T-705.

Abstract
The prototropic tautomeric equilibrium in 2-hydroxypyridine serves as a prototype model for the study of nucleobases' behaviour. The position of such an equilibrium in parent and chlorine monosubstituted 2-hydroxypyridine compounds in the gas phase was determined using synchrotron based techniques. The lactim tautomer is dominant for the 5- and 6-substituted compounds, whereas the parent, 3- and 4-substituted isomers have comparable populations for both tautomers. Information was obtained by measuring valence band and core level photoemission spectra at the chlorine L-edge and carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen K-edges. The effect of chlorine on the core ionization potentials of the atoms in the heterocycle was evaluated and reasonable agreement with a simple model was obtained. Basic considerations of resonance structures correctly predicts the tautomeric equilibrium for the 5- and 6-substituted compounds. The vibrationally resolved structure of the low energy portion of the valence band photoionization spectra is assigned based on quantum-chemical calculations of the neutral and charged species followed by simulation of the vibronic structure. It is shown that the first ionization occurs from a π orbital of similar shape for both tautomers. In addition, the highly distinctive vibronic structure observed just above the first ionization of the lactim, for three of the five species investigated, is assigned to the second ionization of the lactam.

Abstract
The C, N and O 1s excitation and ionization processes of 5X-uracil (X = F, Cl, Br, and I) were investigated using near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) and X-ray photoemission (XPS) spectroscopies. This study aims at the fine assessment of the effects of the functionalization of uracil molecules by halogen atoms having different electronegativity and bound to the same molecular site. Two DFT-based approaches, which rely on different paradigms, have been used to simulate the experimental spectra and to assign the corresponding features. The analysis of the screening of the core holes of the different atoms via electronic charge density plots has turned out to be a useful tool to illustrate the competition between the partially aromatic and partially conjugate properties of this class of molecules.

Abstract
Protomeric tautomerism is analyzed in view of the topological charge stabilization rules. Based on Hückel molecular orbital considerations and modern DFT calculations, it was found that the branching of amino or hydroxyl groups significantly contributes to the stability of major species through the first- and second-order perturbations with respect to the isoelectronic hydrocarbon. While amino-imino tautomerism is almost completely dominated by topological charge stabilization, hydroxyl-oxo tautomerism is affected by changes in the resonance integral of C-O/C═O bonds. Nevertheless, apart from side effects such as hydrogen bonds or solvent effects, a quantitative preference rule for the prediction of the tautomeric stability can be developed using topological π-electron energetics. As well as the analyses of simple bases, applications to complex or extended systems are exemplified analyzing purine bases, polyguanide, and polyuret. The present approach can be useful in conjunction with chemical intuition that comes from conventional valence bond theory.

Abstract
The Fourier transform microwave spectra of the hydrated forms of the tautomeric pair 2-pyridinone/2-hydroxypyridine (2PO/2HP) have been investigated in a supersonic expansion. Three hydrated species, 2PO-H₂O, 2HP-H₂O, and 2PO-(H₂O)₂, have been observed in the rotational spectrum. Each molecular complex was confidently identified by the features of the ¹⁴N quadrupole hyperfine structure of the rotational transitions. The presence of water affects the tautomeric equilibrium -N═C(OH)- ↔ -NH-C(═O)-, which is shifted to the enol form for the bare molecules 2PO/2HP but to the keto tautomer for the hydrated forms.

Abstract
The inner shell excitation of pyrimidine and some halogenated pyrimidines near the C and N K-edges has been investigated experimentally by near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and theoretically by density functional theory calculations. The selected targets, 5-Br-pyrimidine, 2-Br-pyrimidine, 2-Cl-pyrimidine, and 5-Br-2-Cl-pyrimidine, allow the effects of the functionalization of the pyrimidine ring to be studied either as a function of different halogen atoms bound to the same molecular site or as a function of the same halogen atom bound to different molecular sites. The results show that the individual characteristics of the different spectra of the substituted pyrimidines can be rationalized in terms of variations in electronic and geometrical structures of the molecule depending on the localization and the electronegativity of the substituent.

Abstract
The inner shell ionization of pyrimidine and some halogenated pyrimidines has been investigated experimentally by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and theoretically by density functional theory (DFT) methods. The selected targets-5-Br-pyrimidine, 2-Br-pyrimidine, 2-Cl-pyrimidine, and 5-Br-2-Cl-pyrimidine-allowed the study of the effect of the functionalization of the pyrimidine ring by different halogen atoms bound to the same molecular site, or by the same halogen atom bound to different molecular sites. The theoretical investigation of the inductive and resonance effects in the C(1s) ionization confirms the soundness of the resonance model for a qualitative description of the properties of an aromatic system. Moreover, the combination of the experimental results and the theoretical analysis provides a detailed description of the effects of the halogen atom on the screening of a C(1s) hole in the aromatic pyrimidine ring.

Abstract
Tautomerization paths of 2(and 4)-hydroxypyridine (called here HP) to 2(and 4)-pyridone (called here PY) with water molecules were investigated by the use of density functional theory calculations. Potential energies were compared for a number of water molecules. The 2-HP molecule was found to be isomerized most readily and concertedly to the 2-PY one via proton relays with two water molecules. The reaction pattern is invariant even when outer water molecules are added. The 4-HP(H(2)O)(n) --> 4-PY(H(2)O)(n) reaction model did not give small activation energies. However, a reaction of (4-HP)(2)(H(2)O)(2) --> (4-PY)(2)(H(2)O)(2) was found to occur readily through a transient ion-pair intermediate. The conversion processes of (2-PY)(2) to the tautomerization reacting system were discussed. The hydrogen-bond directionality regulates the tautomerization paths.

Abstract
Intramolecular hydrogen-atom migrations in 2-hydroxy-3-nitropyridine have been investigated by low-temperature matrix-isolation infrared (IR) spectroscopy with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculation. An IR spectrum measured after deposition was assigned to an enol isomer, the conformation of which is anti in relation to OH versus N in the pyridine ring. When the matrix sample was exposed to UV and visible light (lambda>350 nm), an IR spectrum consistent with a keto product was observed. During the irradiation, an IR spectrum of a transient species, a photoreaction intermediate between anti-enol and keto, was observed, which was assigned to syn-enol. The bands of syn-enol disappeared completely when the irradiation was stopped, while those of the original isomer, anti-enol, reappeared. No reverse isomerization was observable in the corresponding deuterated species. This led to the conclusion that the isomerization from syn to anti occurs through hydrogen-atom tunneling. On the other hand, an aci-nitro form was produced by UV irradiation (lambda=365+/-10 nm) without visible light. The conformation around the aci-nitro group was determined to be cis-cis by comparison with the spectral patterns obtained by the DFT/B3LYP/6-31++G** calculation. The dynamics of the hydrogen-atom migrations between anti- and syn-enols, syn-enol and keto, and anti-enol and aci-nitro are discussed in terms of the potential surfaces obtained by the DFT calculation.

Abstract
4-Hydroxypyrimidine (4HP) has two conformational forms (the hydroxyl hydrogen cis or trans with respect to the adjacent nitrogen), which are in tautomeric equilibrium with two ketonic forms, 4-pyrimidinone (4PO) and 6-pyrimidinone (6PO). We have investigated the free jet absorption millimeterwave spectrum of this system, assigning the rotational spectra of 4HPcis and 4PO; the latter species is more stable by 2.0(9) kJ/mol. No lines corresponding to the trans isomer of 4-hydroxypyridine and to 6PO have been observed.

Abstract
The proton-transfer mechanism in the isolated, mono, dehydrated forms and dimers of 2-pyridone and the effect of hydration or self-assistance on the transition state structures corresponding to proton transfer from the keto form to the enol form have been investigated using B3LYP and BH-LYP hybrid density functional methods at the 6-311++G (2d, 2p) basis set level. The barrier heights for both H2O-assisted and self-assisted reactions are significantly lower than that of the bare tautomerization reaction from 2-pyridone to 2-hydroxypyridine, implying the importance of the superior catalytic effect of H2O and (H2O)2 and the important role of 2-pyridone itself for the intramolecular proton transfer. Long-range solvent effects have also been taken into account by using the continuum model (Onsager model and polarizable continuum model (PCM)) of water. The tautomerization energies and the potential energy barriers are increased both for the water-assisted and for the self-assisted reaction because of the bulk solvent, which imply that the tautomerization of PY becomes less favorable in the polar solvent.

Abstract
The relative energies of the energetically low-lying tautomers of pyridone, cytosine, uracil, thymine, guanine, and iso-cytosine are studied by a variety of different quantum chemical methods. In particular, we employ density functional theory (DFT) using the six functionals HCTH407, PBE, BP86, B-LYP, B3-LYP, and BH-LYP, and the ab initio methods Hartree-Fock (HF), standard second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), an improved version of it (SCS-MP2), and quadratic configuration interaction including single and double excitations (QCISD) and perturbative triple corrections [QCISD(T)]. A detailed basis set study is performed for the formamide/formamidic acid tautomeric pair. In general, large AO basis sets of at least valence triple-zeta quality including f-functions (TZV) are employed, which are found to be necessary for an accurate energetic description of the various structures. The performance of the more approximate methods is evaluated with QCISD(T)/TZV(2df,2dp) data taken as reference. In general it is found that DFT is not an appropriate method for the problem. For the tautomers of pyridone and cytosine, most density functionals, including the popular B3-LYP hybrid, predict a wrong energetic order, and only for guanine, the correct sequence of tautomers is obtained with all functionals. Out of the density functionals tested, BH-LYP, which includes a rather large fraction of HF exchange, performs best. A consistent description of the nonaromatic versus aromatic tautomers seems to be a general problem especially for pure, nonhybrid functionals. Tentatively, this could be assigned to the exchange potentials used while the functional itself, including the correlation part, seems to be appropriate. Out of the ab initio methods tested, the new SCS-MP2 approach seems to perform best because it effectively reduces some outliers obtained with standard MP2. It outperforms the much more costly QCISD method and seems to be a very good compromise between computational effort and accuracy.
