Summary:NMR chemical shift prediction at the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ level of theory was used to develop a highly accurate probability theory algorithm for the determination of the stereochemistry of diastereomers as well as the regiochemistry. DFT-GIAO calculations were performed for each conformer using geometry optimization and a CPCM solvent model. Boltzmann averaged shielding constants were converted to chemical shifts for H and C, using the generalized linear scaling terms determined in four different solvents for H and C and extended to N in DMSO. The probability theory algorithm, D iCE, was based on the DP4 method and developed for H, C, and N NMR using individual and combined probability data. The chemical shift calculation errors were fitted to a Student's t-distribution for H and C and a normal distribution for N. The application yielded a high accuracy for structural assignment with a low computational cost.
