AbstractDensity functional theory (DFT) method is used to study the effect of single-atom catalyst (SAC) of Mn embedded in C2N nanoribbon (C2N-NR) on the adsorption properties as an attempt to achieve selectivity. Many gases (e.g., CO, CO2, H2, H2O, H2S, N2 and O2) of interest to energy and environmental applications were tested. The results show that SAC-Mn alters chemisorption processes with all gas molecules except N2. Clear adsorption selectivity is obtained towards oxidizing CO, CO2 and O2 molecules as evidenced by the enhancements in binding energy and charge transfer and the reduction in magnetization. While the SAC-Mn contributes predominantly to Fermi-energy region with spin-down states, the strong binding to oxidizing molecules introduces there more spin-up states to compromise and reduce the magnetization. Hence, C2N-NR:Mn is proposed to be used as platform for gas sensor (if combined with magnetic sensor) to yield high selectivity toward these latter gases.

Abstract This paper is a new step in helping the treatment of coronavirus by improving the performance of chloroquine drug. For this purpose, we propose a complex of chloroquine drug with graphene nanoribbon (GNR) scheme. We compute the structural and electrical properties and absorption of chloroquine (C18H26ClN3) and GNR complex using the density functional theory (DFT) method. By creating a drug and GNR complex, the density of states of electrons increases and the energy gap decreases compared to the chloroquine. Also, using absorption calculations and spectrums such as infrared and UV-Vis spectra, we showed that GNR is a suitable structure for creating chloroquine drug complex. Our results show that the dipole moment, global softness and electrophilicity for the drug complex increases compared to the non-complex state. Our calculations can be useful for increasing performance and reducing the side effects of chloroquine, and thus can be effective in treating coronavirus.

Leukemia Treatment

Ibrutinib, a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase that plays an essential role in the B-cell development and cancer cells, has been recently approved to treat chronic, lymphocytic, and other types of leukemia. This study focused on investigating ibrutinib by its electronic transitions, vibrational frequencies, and electrospray mass spectra. The experimental peaks for electronic spectrum were found at 248.0 and 281.0 nm, whereas the νC = 0 stretching frequency was found at 1652.4 and 1639.19 cm−1. These experimental properties were compared with the corresponding theoretical calculations in which density functional theory was applied. The optimized structure was obtained with the calculations using a hybrid function (B3LYP) and high-level basis sets [6-311G++(d,p)]. Most of the calculated vibrational frequencies showed a relatively good agreement with the experimental ones. The electronic transitions of ibrutinib calculated using time-dependent DFT method were performed at two different solvation methods: PCM and SMD. The mass spectrum of ibrutinib, its fragments, and its isotopic pattern agreed well with the expected spectra.
