The conformational isomerism and stereoelectronic interactions present in 2'-haloflavonols were computationally analyzed. On the basis of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, the conformer stabilities of 2'-haloflavonols were found to be dictated mainly by a C=O···H–O intramolecular hydrogen bond, but an unusual C–F···H–O hydrogen-bond and intramolecular C–X···O nonbonding interactions are also present in such compounds.

In this paper, 21 substituents with various electron donating and electron withdrawing characters were placed in available positions of irigenin in order to study their effect on the O – H bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) via DFT/B3LYP method. Results indicated the substituents in X3 and X4 positions have exerted stronger influence upon BDE values of irigenin derivatives when compared with same substituents in X1 and X2 positions. The results show that intramolecular hydrogen bond effects are able to considerably stabilize the parents and radicals. The natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis results also confirmed the intramolecular hydrogen bond stabilization. The formation of strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds in several radicals results in low BDEs. The 3- OH BDE values for substituents in X2 position have linear dependencies with Hammett constants (Fig. 2 and Eq. (2)). Found dependencies are suitably linear, that can be important for the synthesis of novel antioxidants based on irigenin.

: Leflunomide (LFM) and its active metabolite, teriflunomide (TFM), have drawn a lot of attention for their anticancer activities, treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and malaria due to their capability to inhibit dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) and Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) enzyme. In this investigation, the strength of intramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) in five analogs of TFM (ATFM) has been analyzed employing density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) level and molecular orbital analysis in the gas phase and water solution. A detailed electronic structure study has been performed using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and the hydrogen bond energies (EHB) of stable conformer obtained in the range of 76-97 kJ/mol, as a medium hydrogen bond. The effect of substitution on the IHB nature has been studied by natural bond orbital analysis (NBO). 1H NMR calculations show an upward trend in the proton chemical shift of the enolic proton in the chelated ring (14.5 to 15.7ppm) by increasing the IHB strength. All the calculations confirmed the strongest IHB in 5-F-ATFM and the weakest IHB in 2-F-ATFM. Molecular orbital analysis, including the HOMO-LUMO gap and chemical hardness, was performed to compare the reactivity of inhibitors. Finally, molecular docking analysis was carried out to identify the potency of inhibition of these compounds against PfDHODH enzyme.
