Collaborative Computational Project in NMR Crystallography

Lead Research Organisation: University of Oxford
Department Name: Materials

Abstract

Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is capable of providing extremely detailed insights into the structure and dynamics of a wide range of materials - from organic systems such as pharmaceutical compounds and supramolecular arrays to inorganic materials for next-generation batteries and safe storage of nuclear waste. Such information is crucial for harnessing the properties of increasingly complex new materials, needed to address major challenges across the physical sciences. However, the true potential of this experimental technique is only realized through combination with advanced computational methods. These range from first-principles electronic structure predictions of the key NMR interaction tensors through to the simulation of nuclear spin interactions for direct comparison with experimental spectra. In tackling challenging problems, the emerging field of NMR Crystallography also benefits from close interaction with the related methods of powder X-ray diffraction and crystal structure prediction.

The Collaborative Computational Project for NMR Crystallography supports a multidisciplinary community of NMR spectroscopists, crystallographers, materials modellers and application scientists, both within academia and industry. We develop overarching software tools enabling a largely experimentally focused community to deploy advanced computational techniques.

Planned Impact

We have identified a number of pathways by which the outputs of the proposed research will impact more widely than the more obvious academic research implications (which is detailed in the "Academic Beneficiaries" section). These additional routes include both economic and educational impact.

A direct impact is to companies who use solid-state NMR in-house for characterisation of solid forms. For example, the pharmaceutical companies such as GSK, AZ, Sanofi-Avensis all have in-house solid-state NMR spectrometers with experienced personnel as does Johnson Matthey in the field of catalysis.

A direct economic impact of this research is the potential for commercialisation of the outputs, particularly related to the developments in the CASTEP software. Accelrys Inc. (see www.accelrys.com) provide a commercially supported version of the CASTEP software to Industrial users which is licensed from the CASTEP Developers Group. Sales of the NMR-CASTEP program have now exceeded $1.8M including many international companies in the pharmaceutical and catalysis sectors.

In the longer term outputs of the project will also have indirect impact on researchers in Materials, Chemical and Life Sciences who use information derived from NMR. These consist of both academics and industrial companies interested in developing new or better materials for a wide range of applications, e.g. for energy storage, fuel cell and battery related materials, for nuclear waste disposal, as catalysts, new bioactive materials.

The integrated NMR Crystallography software can be used for educational purposes. Many universities include courses on molecule/materials modelling at the undergraduate level, and the CCP-NC software enables linking to spectroscopy topics. The project will involve the training of post-graduate students and PDRA some of whom will go on to use these skills in industry (previous students and PDRA with the Investigators are carrying out NMR work at companies such as GSK, Johnson Matthey, and Agilent Technologies)

All of the investigators' institutions already have well established outreach programmes; for example, summer schools for high-school students. The wide areas of application touched by this proposal will feedback into these presentations, and we can use our expertise to further inform and inspire young people in science.
 
Description In its second funded period, CCP-NC has established itself, both within the UK and on the wider international stage, as the recognised body providing leadership and direction for computation in NMR crystallography:

(a) developed and release new tools for visualisation and processing of NMR parameters - linking together ab-initio calculations of NMR parameters with density matrix simulations of experimental spectra (MagresView, MagresPython);

(b) provide well attended workshops for the training of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers (in the past 3 years, 210 participants from 30 countries);

(c) We strengthened the use of NMR Crystallography in industry through secondments which produced extensive guidance on best practice.
Exploitation Route Through the guidance we have published, industries can apply NMR Crystallography techniques 'in-house' to address materials characterisation challenges.

Description The work in this grant has supported the adoption of NMR Crystallography techniques within the Pharmaceutical Sector. In collaboration with industrial partners we have developed public protocols for running NMR Crystallography calculations - providing the confidence for the adoption of these techniques within drug discovery pipelines. The work in this grant directly supported the development of the stable meta-GGA density functional (rSCAN). Whilst being available to academic users under the free CASTEP licence, it is also available to Industrial users via Biovia's Materials Studio package. This has improved the underlying accuracy of materials modelling techniques available to industrial users across a wider range of sectors.

Title Determination of a Complex Crystal Structure in the Absence of Single Crystals: Analysis of Powder X-ray Diffraction Data, Guided by Solid-State NMR and Periodic DFT Calculations, Reveals A New 2'-Deoxyguanosine Structural Motif 
Description Derivatives of guanine exhibit diverse supramolecular chemistry, with a variety of distinct hydrogen-bonding motifs reported in the solid state, including ribbons and quartets, which resemble the G-quadruplex found in nucleic acids with sequences rich in guanine. Reflecting this diversity, the solid-state structural properties of 3',5'-bis-O-decanoyl-2'-deoxyguanosine, reported in this paper, reveal a hydrogen-bonded guanine ribbon motif that has not been observed previously for 2'-deoxyguanosine derivatives. In this case, structure determination was carried out directly from powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data, representing one of the most challenging organic molecular structures (a 90-atom molecule) that has been solved to date by this technique. While specific challenges were encountered in the structure determination process, a successful outcome was achieved by augmenting the powder XRD analysis with information derived from solid-state NMR data and with dispersion-corrected periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations for structure optimization. The synergy of experimental and computational methodologies demonstrated in the present work is likely to be an essential feature of strategies to further expand the application of powder XRD as a technique for structure determination of organic molecular materials of even greater complexity in the future. The dataset consists of the powder XRD data, with data provided in both the raw format, as generated by the Bruker D8 Diffractometer, and in the cpi format, together with three magres files generated by the program CASTEP when calculating NMR parameters from our crystal structure.
