Synthesis, Single Crystal X-Ray Analysis, Prediction and Study of Pharmacological Activity of 4-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-1-Phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-Amine and Its Solvates

A method for the synthesis of 4- (1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-yl)-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-5-amine was developed, and the electronic and spatial structure of this molecule was studied theoretically and experimentally. The study of interaction energies between molecules by quantum-chemical calculations allows us to recognize different levels of crystal structure organization and describe the interaction types causing their formation. The classic N-H…N and C-H…N hydrogen bonds play the main role in all the studied crystals forming the primary basic structural motif. Their role is comparable with the role of the stacking interactions. The molecular docking study predicted that the studied compound may exhibit anti-hepatitis B activity, and experimental in vitro studies confirmed that it is a potent HBV inhibitor with IC50 in a low micromolar range.

Effect of Point Defect in Carbon Nanotube (8.0) on the Molecular Electrostatic Potential distribution Near it Edge

The influence of point defect on the electronic and spatial structure of carbon nanotubes (8.0) have been studied depending on the placement vacancies in the structure of nanotubes. On the basis of quantum-chemical calculations and using semi-empirical and ab initio approaches the maps of the distribution of molecular electrostatic potential were builds in the planes which are perpendicular to the main axis of the nanotubes. It is shown that defects such as vacancy, are placed outside the first hexagonal carbon belt no effect on the topology of the distribution of molecular electrostatic potential in the vicinity of the entrance to the carbon nanotube. Instead, reactivity of port’s atoms such nanotubes may determinated point defects of the vacancy type to be placed in first hexagonal belt.

Structural Changes in Iron(II) Polymeric Complexes upon Thermally and Optically Induced Spin Transition Determined by EXAFS Spectroscopy

ABSTRACTChanges in the electronic and spatial structure of polymeric Fe(II) complexes with 1,2,4- triazoles and various anions upon spin transition was studied using EXAFS and XANES spectroscopy. Spin transition and structural changes were induced by variations of the anion, dilution with Zn, under heating or the action of light. In all complexes, the spin transition is accompanied by drastic changes in the local environment of Fe atoms. The increase in spin transition temperature for the complexes with variable anions CIO4-, I-, Br-, BF4-, NO3- was found to correlate with changes in the Fe-N distances and changes in bond covalence determined from the chemical shifts in Mössbauer spectra. High spin metastable long life states were detected and studied in the polymeric complex Fe(atrz)3(ClO4)2. It was established that the changes in structure of polymeric complexes upon the transition to a metastable high spin state under the action of light differ from those in the thermally induced spin transition. Such differences are determined by mutual influence of Fe atoms in high spin and low spin states in polymeric chains.
