Conformation/Tautomerization effect on the pK<sub>a</sub> values of lumazine and 6‐thienyllumazine
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Density functional theory [B3LYP/6‐311+G(d,p)] was used in combination with the conductor‐like polarizable continuum model (CPCM) solvation model to investigate the relative stability and site‐specific values of neutral and ionized tautomers of lumazine (LM) and 6‐thienylLM (TLM). Two types of populations should be taken into consideration when calculating the , tautomers, and conformers. The major tautomer of neutral LM in aqueous solution is 13‐LM (the 13 notation refers to the acidic protons being in positions 1 and 3 of LM) TLM has decreased acidity at N 8 relative to LM. Further, the trans conformer of TLM is more acidic than cis . Similar to the case of LM, for TLM, N 1 is more acidic than N 3 in the uracil part. However, N 8 is predicted to be a stronger acid than N 1 for TLM. This acidity enhancement is essentially because of a specific stabilization of the anion when the thienyl group replaces H. Two factors are responsible for the acidity strength of N 8 : The thienyl ring upon deprotonation acts inductively as an electron‐withdrawing group, and the excess electron density is dispersed better when the system is trans and contains second‐row atoms. Accurate pK a calculation requires that all conformers/tautomers be included into the calculation. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
