In this work, the quantum computations of newly synthesized N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)picolinamide (4-HPP) is focused. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to perform the quantum calculations. The optimized molecular geometry was obtained using the B3LYP and MP2 methods employing 6-311++G(d,p) basis set, which served as the foundation for all subsequent calculations. The experimental data was compared with the calculated vibrational frequencies and NMR spectra. With the use of the molecular electrostatic potential surface (MEP) and the Fukui functions, the charge distribution, reactive regions and electrostatic potential were displayed. The chemical activity of the 4-HPP was evaluated by the energy difference between HOMO and LUMO. For better understanding of the intermolecular charge transfer (ICT), natural bond order analysis (NBO) was used. At various temperatures, thermodynamic parameters such as Gibb’s free energy, enthalpy and entropy were determined. The electrophilicity index was used to portray the molecule’s bioactivity and molecular docking was used to show the interaction between the ligand and the protein. The nature of the molecule was determined by drug similarity when expecting its application for medical purposes.

Weak interactions between organic donor and acceptor molecules resulting in cofacially-stacked aggregates ("CT complexes") were studied by second-order many-body perturbation theory (MP2) and by gradient-corrected hybrid Hartree-Fock/density functional theory (B3LYP exchange-correlation functional). The complexes consist of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and related compounds and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). Density functional theory (DFT) and MP2 molecular equilibrium geometries of the component structures are calculated by means of 6-31G*, 6-31G*(0.25), 6-31++G**, 6-31++G(3df,2p) and 6-311G** basis sets. Reliable molecular geometries are obtained for the donor and acceptor compounds considered. The geometries of the compounds were kept frozen in optimizing aggregate structures with respect to the intermolecular distance. The basis set superposition error (BSSE) was considered (counterpoise correction). According to the DFT and MP2 calculations laterally-displaced stacks are more stable than vertical stacks. The charge transfer from the donor to the acceptor is small in the ground state of the isolated complexes. The cp-corrected binding energies of TTF/TCNE amount to -1.7 and -6.3 kcal/mol at the DFT(B3LYP) and MP2(frozen) level of theory, respectively (6-31G* basis set). Larger binding energies were obtained by Hobza's 6-31G*(0.25) basis set. The larger MP2 binding energies suggest that the dispersion energy is underestimated or not considered by the B3LYP functional. The energy increases when S in TTF/TCNE is replaced by O or NH but decreases with substitution by Se. The charge-transferred complexes in the triplet state are favored in the vertical arrangement. Self-consistent-reaction-field (SCRF) calculations predicted a gain in binding energy with solvation for the ground-state complex. The ground-state charge transfer between the components is increased up to 0.8 e in polar solvents.

Herein, we report the quantum chemical results based on density functional theory for the polarizability (α) and first hyperpolarizability (β) values of diacetylene-functionalized organic molecules (DFOM) containing an electron acceptor (A) unit in the form of nitro group and electron donor (D) unit in the form of amino group. Six DFOM 1–6 have been designed by structural tailoring of the synthesized chromophore 4,4′-(buta-1,3-diyne-1,4-diyl) dianiline (R) and the influence of the D and A moieties on α and β was explored. Ground state geometries, HOMO-LUMO energies, and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis of all DFOM (R and 1–6) were explored through B3LYP level of DFT and 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The polarizability (α), first hyperpolarizability (β) values were computed using B3LYP (gas phase), CAM-B3LYP (gas phase), CAM-B3LYP (solvent DMSO) methods and 6-31G(d,p) basis set combination. UV-Visible analysis was performed at CAM-B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. Results illustrated that much reduced energy gap in the range of 2.212–2.809 eV was observed in designed DFOM 1–6 as compared to parent molecule R (4.405 eV). Designed DFOM (except for 2 and 4) were found red shifted compared to parent molecule R. An absorption at longer wavelength was observed for 6 with 371.46 nm. NBO analysis confirmed the involvement of extended conjugation and as well as charge transfer character towards the promising NLO response and red shift of molecules under study. Overall, compound 6 displayed large <α> and βtot, computed to be 333.40 (a.u.) (B3LYP gas), 302.38 (a.u.) (CAM-B3LYP gas), 380.46 (a.u.) (CAM-B3LYP solvent) and 24708.79 (a.u.), 11841.93 (a.u.), 25053.32 (a.u.) measured from B3LYP (gas), CAM-B3LYP (gas) and CAM-B3LYP (DMSO) methods respectively. This investigation provides a theoretical framework for conversion of centrosymmetric molecules into non-centrosymmetric architectures to discover NLO candidates for modern hi-tech applications.

Density functional theory and Møller–Plesset perturbation theory methods have been used to study the ring clusters of ( BN )n=1–10 employing 6-311++G** basis set. The binding energies have been corrected for the basis set superposition error (BSSE). Static polarizability of these ring clusters has been investigated. A simple expression for the size dependence of polarizability has been invoked, so that the same relation can be useful for predicting the polarizability of larger clusters. The topological properties were analyzed employing the Bader's atoms in molecules theory. A good correlation between the structural parameters and the properties of electron density is found. Localization and delocalization indices were also used for the analysis of molecular electronic structure by an electron pair perspective. The contribution of stereo electronic interactions to the molecular properties as a function of ring size is analyzed based on the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.

Aim: In our earlier research, we have synthesized series of substituted 1-(2, 5-dimethyl thiophene-3yl)-(4-substituted phenyl)-2-propene-1-one derivatives and evaluated them for their anti-bacterial and antifungal activity. In recent years, chalcone derivatives are proved for their varied pharmacological effects ranging from antimicrobial activity to anti-cancer effects. In this study, we have hypothesized the efficiency of our earlier synthesized anti-bacterial and antifungal chalcone derivatives for their potential inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor protein (EGFR), through molecular docking studies. Methodology: Molecular docking simulation studies are performed using the Glide XP module of Schrodinger Suite and ligand binding energies are also calculated. Results: Molecular docking studies of the selected compounds against EGFR revealed docking scores ranging from -6.746 (compound 5) to -5.681 (compound 3) and also provided insight into binding conformations of the ligands in the EGFR protein environment. Additionally, molecular property and Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME) predictor analysis is also performed for the dataset ligands, which further provided the probable explanation for the binding potentials. Conclusion: Among all the tested dataset ligands, compound 5 has shown the highest dock score (-6.746) with better ADME profiles. Binding energies in the protein-ligand interactions explain how fit the ligand binds with the target protein. Molecular docking studies of these anti-bacterial, antifungal chalcone derivatives provided deeper insights in understanding the probable conformations of these tested ligands in the EGFR protein environment.

Studies have shown that hydrazides and thier derivatives are used for pharmaceutical and medicinal purposes. At present, the whole world is suffering for COVID-19 virus. There are some vaccines or medicines available to treat this disease all over the world. Today the one fourth of the world’s population is under lockdown condition. In this scenario, scientists from the whole world are doing different types of research on this disease. Being a molecular modeller, this inspires us to design new types of species (may be drugs) which may be capable for COVID-19 Protease. In the present effort, we have performed docking studies of title compounds with COVID-19 protein (6LU7) for anti-COVID-19 activity. A comparative quantum chemical calculations of molecular geometries (bond lengths and bond angles) of 4-Hydroxy Benzo Hydrazide (4HBH) and its newly designed derivatve [(E)-N′-((1H-Pyrrol-2-YL)Methylene) –4-Hydroxy Benzo Hydrazide and its isomers (I, II and III)] in the ground state have also been carried out due to its biological importance and compared with the similer type of compound found in literature i.e. benzohydrazide. The optimized geometry and wavenumber of the vibrational bands of the molecules have been calculated by density functional theory (DFT) using Becke’s three-parameters hybrid functional (B3LYP/CAM-B3LYP) with 6–311G (d, p) as the basis set. Vibrational wavenumbers are compared with the observed FT-IR and FTRaman spectra of 4-Hydroxy Benzo Hydrazide. TDDFT calculations are also done on the same level of theory and a theoretical UV-vis spectrum of title molecules are also drawn. HOMO-LUMO analysis has been done to describe the way the molecule interacts with other species. Natural bond orbitals (NBO) analysis has been carried out to inspect the intra- and inter- molecular hydrogen-bonding, conjugative and hyper conjugative interactions and their second order stabilization energy. Nonlinear optical (NLO) analysis has been performed to study the non-linear optical properties of the molecule by computing the first hyperpolarizability. The variation of thermodynamic properties with temperature has been studied. QATIM analysis shows that hydrogen bonding occurs in 4HBH, isomer II and III respectively.

The spectra are interpreted with the aid of normal co-ordinate analysis following full structure optimization and force field calculations based on density functional theory   (DFT) using standard B3LYP / 6-311++ G (d, p) basis set for investigating the structural and spectroscopic properties. The vibrational frequencies are calculated and the scaled values are compared with experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. The scaled theoretical wave numbers shows very good agreement with experimental ones. The complete vibrational assignments are performed on the basis of potential energy distribution (PED) of vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum (SQM) method. Stability of the molecule arising from hyper conjugative interactions, charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.
