“…Indeed, the Strychnos alkaloids, the vitally important natural products, attract an unflagging attention of theoretical chemists dealing with the calculation of their nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants, as exemplified by the most representative recent studies [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] together with earlier salient results. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] In view of the large molecular size, severe proton deficiency, strong intramolecular stereoelectronic effects, and characteristic of Strychnos alkaloids, such as calculations, require a substantial computational effort and present a challenging task for modern computational NMR. [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] In this respect, calculation of 1 H and 13 C NMR chemical shifts of Strychnos alkaloids is of the utmost importance in view of their prospective application to chemical identification, spectral assignment, and structural elucidation of biochemical pathways.…”
