Mercaptopurine is a medicine used to prevent the formation and spread of cancer cells. Mercaptopurine, known chemically as 1,7-dihydro-6H-purine-6-thione, is an analogue of the purine bases adenine and hypoxanthine. This work reports an investigation of anticancer drug Mercaptopurine with the combined density functional theory and Its structure were optimized at B3LYP/6-31G*, level and The mole...

Intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IHBs) play a central role in the molecular structure, chemical reactivity and interactions of biologically active molecules. Here, we study the IHBs of seven related o-carbonyl hydroquinones and one structurally-related aromatic lactone, some of which have shown anticancer and antioxidant activity. Experimental NMR data were correlated with theoretical calculation...

Tetryzoline(TH) is an adrenergic agent (vasoconstrictors) and derived from imidazoline. This compound is closely related to naphazoline hydrochloride in its pharmacological action. Nanotechnology has been used to provide advanced biomedical research tools in drug delivery. The fullerene family especially C60 derivatives have appealing photo-, electro-chemical and physical properties for biomedi...

Ab initio and DFT molecular orbital calculations predict that acetyl radical reacts with acetylene through interactions primarily involving the SOMO of the radical and the in-plane π-bond of acetylene. An energy barrier (∆E1) of 39.6 kJ mol‒1 is predicted for the preferred anti arrangement of reactants at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ//BHandHLYP/cc-pVDZ level of theory. NBO analysis reveals additional in...

Developing applications for metal-mediated base pairs (metallo-base-pair) has recently become a high-priority area in nucleic acid research, and physicochemical analyses are important for designing and fine-tuning molecular devices using metallo-base-pairs. In this study, we characterized the Hg(II)-mediated T-T (T-Hg(II)-T) base pair by Raman spectroscopy, which revealed the unique physical an...

in this paper geometry optimization of two ionic complexes such as cr042-gly+1, and mo042- gly+i have been carried out at the hf and b3lyp levels oftheory with 6-31g* basis set in the gas phase. moreover, chemical shift andnatural bond of orbital (nbo) of these compounds have been obtainedusing nmr and nbo methods. finally, the obtained theoretical results werecompared with each other.

Quinolines are aromatic compounds consisting of benzene rings with a pyridine heterocyclic system. In this study, the structure and orbital interactions methyl 5-6 dihydro benzo(h) quinolone-4-carboxylate (MDQC) molecule, which is quinoline derivative, were analyzed. calculation using B3LYP/6-311++g(d,p) level, three conformers found in minimum energy state according to O=C-O-C dihedral angle s...

the concept of resonance assisted hydrogen bond (rahb), which usually occurs in b diketons, has a remarkable role in chemistry. these molecules, which contain heteroatom particularly o and n, are species with biological interest in protein folding and dna pairing. therefore, the amplification of hydrogen bonds strength by substituents may be important in life sciences. in the current research, ...

In this paper, ab initio calculations were performed on the ternary complex formed by HB(CO)2, XCN (X = Cl, Br) and YF (Y = Li, H, Cl). In these complexes boron act as a non-classical electron donor to form a unconventional halogen bond. The cooperative effect between the B•••X halogen bond and lithium/hydrogen/halogen bond was investigated. The calculated results show that the B•••X and N•••Y ...

In this work, by using density functional theory, the adsorption of Nitramide (NH2NO2) molecule on the surface of pristine, B, As and B&As doped (4,4) armchair aluminum nitride nanotube (AlNNTs) is investigated. From optimized structures the adsorption energy, deformation energy, natural bond orbital (NBO), atom in molecule (AIM), quantum parameters, reduced density gradient (RDG) and molecular...
