Three isatin derivatives, namely, 1-allyl-3-hydroxy-3-(6-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)indolin-2-one, C17H17NO3, 1-ethyl-3-hydroxy-3-(6-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)indolin-2-one, C16H17NO3, and 5-bromo-3-hydroxy-1-methyl-3-(6-oxocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)indolin-2-one, C15H14BrNO3, were synthesized, crystallized by the slow-evaporation technique, characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and analysed by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. Quantum chemical parameters, such as the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital, energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, energy gap, electronic energy, ionization potential, chemical potential, global hardness, global softness and electrophilicity index, were calculated. The druglikeness and bioactivity scores of the compounds were calculated. The activities of these isatin derivatives against bacterial strains, such as Eschericia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Shigella flexneri, Staphylococcus aureus and Micrococcus luteus, and the fungal strain Aspergillus niger, were determined using the well-diffusion assay method. Molecular docking studies were carried out to predict the binding mode of the isatin compounds with the penicillin binding protein enzyme and to identify the interactions between the enzyme and the ligands under study.

Introduction: Several molecular modelling techniques and quantum chemical methods have been performed to correlate the chemical structures of the compounds with their physical molecular properties. Methods: Using theoretical parameters help to characterize the molecular structure of the investigated ligands and to study their equlibria mechanism. Molecular modelling data such as the bond length, bond order, bond angles and dihedral angles values were estimated for some pyrimidine compounds, where the data suggested the presence of tautomerism and a dynamic equilibria are deduced between all the detected tautomers in the solid state. Results: Four main tautomers are predicted for barbital and thiobarbituric acid while three tautomers are for thiouracil. Quantum chemical parameters such as the highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO), energy gap (ΔE), dipole moment (µ ), sum of the total negative charge (STNC), electronegativity (Χ), chemical potential (Pi), global hardness (η) and softness (σ ) were calculated.


The dielectric and electrical conductivity measurements for biologically active nucleic acid compounds reveal semiconducting properties and small relaxation times. On the basis of electronic transition within molecules, two pathways for the conduction of electricity may be expected. The first conducting process occurring in the lower temperature region is attributed to n→π* transitions which require less energy to be performed. In the upper temperature region, conduction could be attributed to π→π* transitions which need more energy to participate in electronic conduction. The observed increment of conduction in the upper temperature region may be attributed to interactions between n→π* and π→π* transitions. Quantum chemical parameters such as the highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO) were given using molecular modeling. Energy gap (ΔE) and parameters which give information about the reactive chemical behavior of compounds such as electronegativity (χ), chemical potential (µ), global hardness (η), softness (σ) and electrophilicity index (ω) were calculated.

Quantum chemical calculations based on DFT method were performed on three nitrogen-bearing heterocyclic compounds used as corrosion inhibitors for the mild steel in acid media to determine the relationship between the molecular structure of inhibitors and inhibition efficiency. The structural parameters, such as energy and distribution of highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), the charge distribution of the studied inhibitors, the absolute electronegativity (χ) values, and the fraction of electrons (ΔN) transfer from inhibitors to mild steel were also calculated and correlated with inhibition efficiencies. The results showed that the inhibition efficiency of inhibitors increased with the increase in energy of HOMO and decrease in energy gap of frontier molecular orbital, and the areas containing N and O atoms are most possible sites for bonding the steel surface by donating electrons to the mild steel.

The corrosion inhibition performance of a corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in phosphoric acid, namely 5-chloro-1-(2-(dimethylamino) ethyl) indoline-2,3-dione (TZCDI), was theoretically evaluated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G+(d,p) level for all atoms by Gaussian 09W program. The quantum chemical properties, such as highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO) energy gap (∆Egap), dipole moment (μ), total hardness (η), and electronegativity (χ), were studied, and these descriptors were discussed in connection to the experimental inhibitory efficiency. The local reactivity was analyzed through the Fukui function in order to compare the possible sites for nucleophilic and electrophilic attacks. Accordingly, all data obtained using various theoretical calculation techniques were consistent with experiments.

In this study, the dependence of corrosion inhibition and microbial effects of four N-hydroxymethylated amino acids, on their molecular and electronic structure is analyzed using density functional theory calculations. Quantum chemical parameters such as highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO), energy gap (ΔE) were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311G++(d,p) basis set. Although no simple relationship between the inhibition performance and the calculated data could be discerned, the comparison of inactivation rate constants with energetic parameters suggested that microbial effects of the compounds can be explained in terms of their side chain disparities.

The corrosion inhibition of mild carbon steels in an acidic environment by using ampicillin (AMP) has been evaluated based on experimental and quantum chemistry techniques. The experimental results indicate that the inhibition efficiency goes up at higher AMP concentration. The highest inhibition efficiency reaches 84.9% for polarization measurement and 90.1% for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy with the inhibitor of concentration 100 ppm at 298 K. The surface characteristics (SEM) also reconfirm the steel corrosion inhibition ability of AMP. Some important chemical factors such as EHOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital energy), ELUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy), ΔEL−H (energy gap), and Fukui functions were calculated based on the optimized configuration of AMP at the theoretical level of B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p). Moreover, Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations were used to analyze the absorption behavior of inhibitor on the surface of Fe(110), which supplies the mechanism of inhibition corrosion processes. The obtained results showed that AMP is considered to be a potential corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in 1M HCl medium. Moreover, the protonated state of AMP plays an important role in the protection of Fe surface against the corrosive process.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of inhibition the corrosion of two organic molecules derived from benzimidazole, specifically 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (2Mcb) and 2-phenylbenzimidazole (2Fb). The calculations were performed using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) at the B3LYP with 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. The quantum parameters correlated with the inhibition efficiency such as the highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO) , energy gap (ΔE), electronegativity (χ), hardness (η), the fractions of electrons transferred (ΔN), electrophilicity (ω) and Fukui indices, were calculated. Calculations were performed in aqueous medium in both protonated and non-protonated forms. Theoretical results were compared with experimental data and a good correlation was found between the chemical quantum parameters and the efficiency of inhibition of the molecules.

Topological analyses of the electron density using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) have been carried out at the B3PW91/6-31g (d) theoretical level, on bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes derivatives 9-(4-(di (1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-methyl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole (L) and its zinc(II) complexes: ZnLCl2 (1), ZnLBr2 (2) and ZnLI2 (3). The topological parameters derived from Bader theory were also analyzed; these are characteristics of Zn-bond critical points and also of ring critical points. The calculated structural parameters are the frontier molecular orbital energies highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO), hardness (?), softness (S), the absolute electronegativity (?), the electrophilicity index (?) and the fractions of electrons transferred (?N) from ZnLX2 complexes to L. The numerous correlations and dependencies between energy terms of the Symmetry Adapted Perturbation Theory approach (SAPT), geometrical, topological and energetic parameters were detected and described.
