The adsorption of the Zejula drug on the surface of B12N12 nanocluster has studied using DFT and TD-DFT. The quantum calculations have performed at the M062X/6–311 + + G(d,p) level of theory in the solvent water. The adsorption of the Zejula from N13 atom on the B12N12 leads to the higher electrical conductivity due to the low Eg rather. The change of DM also displays a charge transfer between Zejula and nanocluster. The UV absorption and IR spectra were calculated. The adsorption of Zejula drug over B12N12 nanocluster in the complexes Zejula/B12N12 can be considered as a bathochromic shift. According to QTAIM analysis, -G(r)/V(r) values for B-O and B-N bonds confirming the electrostatic and partial covalent character. The values of LOL and ELF confirm that the interactions are dominated by electrostatic interaction contributions. The calculated data reveal the B12N12 nanocluster can be appropriate as a biomedical system for the delivery of Zejula drug.

In this research, a DFT calculation was performed for study to investigate the encapsulation of the anticancer drug Ibrance into CNT(8,8-7) by using M062X/6-311G* level of theory in the solvent water. TD-DFT method was used to compute the electronic spectra of the Ibrance drug, CNT(8,8-7) and complex CNT(8,8-7)/Ibrance in aqueous medium for the study of non-bonded interaction effect. The non-bonded interaction effects of Ibrance drug with CNT(8,8-7) on the electronic properties and natural charges have been also studied. The results display the change in title parameters after process adsorption. According to NBO results, the molecule Ibrance and CNT(8,8-7) play as both electron donor and acceptor at the complex CNT(8,8-7)/Ibrance. Charge transfer, on the other hand, occurs between the bonding, antibonding, or nonbonding orbitals of Ibrance drug and CNT (8,8-7). According to QTAIM analysis and the LOL and ELF values, all intermolecular bonds in the complex are non-covalent in nature. As a result, CNT(8,8-7) can be thought of as a drug delivery system for transporting Ibrance as an anticancer drug within biological systems.

The adsorption of Doxepin (DOX) drug on the surfaces of B12N12 and Al12N12 nanoclusters was studied by using DFT and TD-DFT calculations at the B3PW91 method and 6–31 + G* basis set in the solvent (water). The adsorption effect of the DOX drug on the bond lengths, electronic properties, and dipole moment of the B12N12 and Al12N12 nanoclusters was studied. The change in λmax was assessed by an investigation of calculated UV spectra. NBO analysis displayed a charge transfer between DOX and two nanoclusters. The LOL and ELF values of the B–N bond are the greater than B–O, Al–O, and Al–N bonds, confirming stronger interaction between the boron atom of B12N12 nanocluster and the nitrogen atom of the DOX drug. It is found that the B12N12 nanocluster can be suitable as a drug carrier system for the delivery of DOX drug. The results of our study can be used to design a suitable carrier for the DOX drug.

For the first time in the present study, the non-bonded interaction of the Coniine (C8H17N) with carbon monoxide (CO) was investigated by density functional theory (DFT/M062X/6-311+G*) in the gas phase and solvent water. The adsorption of the CO over C8H17N was affected on the electronic properties such as EHOMO, ELUMO, the energy gap between LUMO and HOMO, global hardness. Furthermore, chemical shift tensors and natural charge of the C8H17N and complex C8H17N/CO were determined and discussed. According to the natural bond orbital (NBO) results, the molecule C8H17N and CO play as both electron donor and acceptor at the complex C8H17N/CO in the gas phase and solvent water. On the other hand, the charge transfer is occurred between the bonding, antibonding or nonbonding orbitals in two molecules C8H17N and CO. We have also investigated the charge distribution for the complex C8H17N/CO by molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) calculations using the M062X/6-311+G* level of theory. The electronic spectra of the C8H17N and complex C8H17N/CO were calculated by time dependent DFT (TD-DFT) for investigation of the maximum wavelength value of the C8H17N before and after the non-bonded interaction with the CO in the gas phase and solvent water. Therefore, C8H17N can be used as strong absorbers for air purification and reduce environmental pollution.

A polarizing light beam splitter is created in the form of two Dove prisms of BK7 glass with a multilayer thin-fi lm coating made of two periodic substructures between them. The number of layers of Nb2O5 and SiO2 in each structure and their thicknesses are chosen to ensure that they reflect s-polarized and transmit p-polarized components of the incident light over the entire specified working spectral range of the splitter. This is achieved by partial overlap and supplementation by one another of photon band-gap structures of the corresponding structures at the Brewster angle. For a full divergence angle of the input light beam of up to 10o, the manufactured polarizing splitter provides a degree of polarization of 0.99 over the working wavelength range of 400–800 nm. Since the material for making the polarizing splitter is optical glass, the size of the splitters of this design is limited only by the working volume of the vacuum chambers used to deposit the optical coatings.

In this research, we studied the adsorption effect of the noroxyhydrastinine (NOS) on the electronic and optical properties of B12N12 fullerene using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations with the B3LYP/6-311+G(d) level of theory in water for the first time. The calculated adsorption energies of NOS with the B12N12 fullerene were computed at T = 298.15 K with the B3LYP functional. The UV/Vis absorption and IR spectra were computed and studied for study the significant changes happening in interactions between NOS molecule and B12N12 fullerene. The calculated results indicate that the adsorption of the NOS from the side of the oxygen atom of carbonyl group on the B12N12 fullerene (configuration A) has the most stability rather than configuration B. According to the NBO results, the NOS molecule and B12N12 fullerene identify as both electrons donor and acceptor at the complexes B12N12–NOS. On the other hand, the charge transfer is occurred between the bonding, antibonding or nonbonding orbitals in the NOS and B12N12 fullerene. It is found that the applied B12N12 fullerene can be suitable as a drug carrier for the delivery of NOS as anticancer drug.

The calculated adsorption energies of SOF drug with the B12N12 fullerene were computed at T= 298.15 K with the M062X functional. The UV/Vis absorption spectra were computed and investigated for the study of the significant changes in interactions between SOF and B12N12 fullerene. The IR spectra were also calculated and investigated. The calculated results indicate that the adsorption of the SOF drug from its internal NH2 group on the B12N12 fullerene (configuration B) has the most chemical stability rather than configuration A and C. According to the NBO results, the SOF molecule and B12N12 fullerene are identified as both electrons donor and acceptor at the complexes B12N12-SOF. On the other hand, the charge transfer occurs between the bonding, anti-bonding, or nonbonding orbitals in the SOF drug and B12N12 fullerene. It is found that the applied B12N12 fullerene can be suitable as a drug carrier for the delivery of SOF as a drug for the treatment of excessive sleepiness.

In this study, the antioxidant property of eight new azomethine derivatives underwent theoretical and experimental investigations. Azomethines have antioxidant activity. This is the first time the molecular structures and antioxidant property of these derivatives have been studied. The molecular structures were optimized using Density functional theory (DFT). The Bond Dissociation Enthalpy (BDE), Mulliken Charges, NBO analysis, Ionization Potential (IP), Electron Affinities (EA), HOMO and LUMO energies, Hardness (η), Softness (S), Electronegativity (μ), Electrophilic Index (ω), Electron Donating Power (ω-), Electron Accepting Power (ω+), and Energy Gap (Eg) were calculated in order to deduce scavenging action of the eight new synthesized azomethines (DIA-3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10). Spin density calculations and NBO analysis were also carried out to understand the antioxidant activity mechanism. These molecules have high antioxidant potential due to the planarity and formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds.

The aim of this work is a study of the encapsulation and intermolecular non-bonded interaction of an anticancer drug Talzenna into carbon nanotube [CNT(8,8-7)] and boron nitride nanotube [BNNT(8,8-7)]. The interaction effects of Talzenna with the CNT and BNNT on electronic and adsorption properties were theoretically investigated in the solvent phase at the M062X/6-311G* level of theory. With the encapsulation of Talzenna drug, the electronic properties of the CNT and BNNT nanotubes change significantly. The electronic spectra of the Talzenna drug, complexes CNT/Talzenna and BNNT/Talzenna in the solvent water were calculated by Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) for the study of adsorption effect. According to the natural bond orbital (NBO) results, all three molecules Talzenna, CNT and BNNT play as electrons donor and acceptors at the complexes CNT/Talzenna and BNNT/Talzenna. On the other hand, the charge transfer is occurred between the bonding, antibonding or nonbonding orbitals in molecules Talzenna, CNT and BNNT. Based on the results, CNT(8,8-7) and BNNT(8,8-7) can be used as a drug delivery system for the transportation of Talzenna as anticancer drug within the biological systems.

In current work, the adsorption of Sulfanilamide (SLF) drug over B12N12 and Al12N12 fullerenes was studied using DFT and TDDFT calculations at the M06-2X/6-31+G** level in the solvent water for the first time. The adsorption effect of the SLF on the bonds length, electronic properties such as charge analysis, frontier molecular orbital (FMO), dipole moment and optical properties of B12N12 and Al12N12 fullerenes was investigated. The UV absorption spectra were calculated for study the significant changes are taking place in interactions between SLF and B12N12 and Al12N12 fullerenes. According to charge analysis, it is found that charge transfer occurs from SLF drug to fullerenes and from fullerene to SLF drug. The analysis of the LOL and ELF was shown the N-B and O-B bonds are greater than the other bonds, representing higher electron density localization and stronger covalent characteristic. The adsorption of the SLF from the head of N atom of sulfonamide group on the surface of B12N12 with the lower energy gap (EG) was more considerable than the head O atom and the N atom of NH2-Ar group. It is found that the applied B12N12 fullerene can be suitable as a drug carrier for the delivery of SLF drug.

In this work, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to investigate the complex formation ability of Meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) with metal ions (Cd2+, Hg2+ and Pb2+) in water. The binding energy values and thermodynamic parameters have been calculated. Natural bond orbital and charge decomposition analyses show an effective charge transfer from the oxygen and sulfur atoms of the DMSA to metal ions. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules analysis reveals that the covalent interactions between DMSA and Pb2+ are the driving force in complex formation, while the non-covalent interactions, mainly, electrostatic interactions play an important role in the complex formation of the DMSA with Cd2+ and Hg2+. Finally, The electronic properties such as highest occupied molecular orbital, lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies, electronic chemical hardness, electronic chemical potential and global electrophilicity were calculated to get a better insight of molecular properties.

This study used the density functional theory (DFT) methods to evaluate the geometrical properties, UV, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) analysis, and the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of oxime ether derivatives containing a quinoxaline. In addition, the stability of the molecule resulting from hyper conjugative interactions charge delocalization was studied using a natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The HOMO-LUMO energy gaps indicated different charge-transfer possibilities within the regarded molecules. Eventually, NBO analysis demonstrates the charge transfer between the lone pairs and the localized bonds.

In this research, we report the results of experimental and density functional theory (DFT)/time-dependent DFT analyses of two new azo derivatives that absorb light in the visible range: (E)-2-((4-(diethylamino)phenyl)diazenyl)-6-methoxy-3-methylbenzo[d]thiazol-3-ium (I) and N,N-diethyl-4-((6-methoxybenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)diazenyl)aniline (II) in the presence of water (I) and chloroform (II). The molecular geometry and excited states of the compounds were investigated, and their natural bond orbital, frontier molecular orbital, quantum theory of atoms in molecules, and nonlinear optical (NLO) parameters were calculated. In addition, Fourier-transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, and ultraviolet/visible spectral parameters were generated from the derived structures and compared to experimental spectral parameters. The practical applicability of the azo derivatives was investigated by determining their electronic and NLO properties, which demonstrated that both molecules have potential for optoelectronic and photonic applications. A high degree of approximation between the calculated and experimental results was demonstrated.

In the present work, the molecular structures of three new azomethine dyes: N-benzylidene-4-((E)-phenyldiazenyl)aniline (PAZB-1), 2-methoxy-4-(((4-((E)- phenyldiazenyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (PAZB-2) and 2-methoxy-5-((E)-((4-((E)- phenyldiazenyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (PAZB-8) have been predicted and investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) in dimethylformamide (DMF). The geometries of the azomethine dyes were optimized by PBE0/6-31 + G* level of theory. The electronic spectra of these azomethine dyes in a DMF solution was carried out by TDPBE0/6-31 + G* method. After quantum-chemical calculations three new azomethine dyes for optoelectronic applications were synthesized. FT-IR spectra of the title compounds are recorded and discussed. The computed absorption spectral data of the azomethine dyes are in good agreement with the experimental data, thus allowing an assignment of the UV/Vis spectra. On the basis of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and the new synthesized azomethine dyes polarizing films for Visible region of spectrum were developed. The main optical parameters of polarizing PVA-films (Transmittance, Polarization Efficiency and Dichroic Ratio) have been measured and discussed. Anisotropy of thermal conductivity of the PVA-films has been studied.

In the present work, isomerization, photophysical properties, thermal conductivity (λ) and spectral study of the N -Salicylideneaniline: 2-[(E)-(phenylimino)methyl]phenol (SA) under the action of UV radiation in the Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB) matrix were studied using the Indicator method and Density Functional Theory (DFT). The electronic absorption spectra of SA and its isomers (SA 1 and SA 2 ) in dimethylformamide (DMF) solutions were also calculated. The nature of absorption bands of SA, SA 1 and SA 2 in the visible and near ultraviolet spectral regions was interpreted. The excitation energies, electronic transitions and oscillator strengths for SA, SA 1 and SA 2 have also been calculated. Thermal Conductivity of PVB-films containing SA before and after UV radiation was also measured. A Photochromic PVB - film on the basis of SA for application in optical devices and display technologies was made.

Despite the significant role of ciclopirox as a novel anticancer agent to treat various cancers such as breast, liver, colorectal and bladder, it has some adverse effects and poor solubility in water. Hence, the enhancement of ciclopirox polarity is crucial in biological systems. In this work, the effect of selenium decoration on the interaction of ciclopirox drug molecule with B12N12 was investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Based on structural analysis, C O group of ciclopirox was chemisorbed on the boron and selenium atoms of B12N12 and Se-B12N12 nanoclusters, respectively. It was found that the selenium decoration significantly improves the reactivity of B12N12 toward ciclopirox. A short recovery time (~2.13 s) was predicted for ciclopirox desorption from the Se-B12N12 nanocluster surface. The vibrational frequency analysis was conducted to survey the vibration frequencies of bonds formed in the CPX/nanocluster complex. The charge transfer process was studied using charge decomposition analysis (CDA). Furthermore, Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis revealed that the non-covalent interactions between CPX and nanoclusters are essential for the delivery process. Finally, electronic properties analysis showed that energy band gap of Se-B12N12 nanocluster is significantly reduced from 0.2835 to 0.2121 a.u after ciclopirox adsorption.

In the current work, density functional theory calculations were carried out to evaluate the potential ability of apomorphine, dopamine, hinokitiol and deferiprone chelating agents to coordinate Mn2+, Fe3+ and Zn2+ metal ions with a 1:1 ratio in water solution. The binding energy values reveal that Zn2+/chelating agent complexes are more stable compared to Mn2+/chelating agent and Fe3+/chelating agent complexes. In order to evaluate the parameters that describe the affinity between the metal ions and chelating agents, the metal ion/chelating agent interactions were analyzed by CDA, NBO, QTAIM, FMO analyses. Interestingly, it was found that the Fe O interactions in all complexes and Mn O interactions in [Mn-DFP]+ complex are mainly electrostatic, whereas other interactions have a covalent character. Moreover, TD-DFT studies showed n → π* and π → π* transitions in the absorption spectra of the complexes.

In this study, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to investigate the interaction of the B12N12 and Al12N12 nano-cages with alprazolam (ALP) in the gas phase and water at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of the theory. According to the obtained results, B12N12 nano-cage can be able to form a more stable complex with ALP in comparison to Al12N12. The stability of ALP/B12N12 and ALP/Al12N12 complexes was increased in the water as a simulation of the body condition. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis revealed an effective charge transfer from the nitrogen atoms of ALP to the boron atoms of nano-cages. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis indicated that the non-covalent interactions between Al12N12 and ALP are the main driving force in the complex formation, whereas ALP/B12N12 interaction is mainly electrostatic and partial covalent in nature. Moreover, there is an intra-molecular hydrogen bond between nitrogen atom of the nano-cages and hydrogen atom of ALP. Finally frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis was performed to get a better insight of the reactivity and stability of ALP/nano-cage complexes in the gas phase and water. Based on FMO analysis, B12N12 nano-cage is a better biosensor for the detection of ALP drug in comparison to Al12N12 due to the higher changes in its band gap.
