In the present density functional study neutral and positively charged (mono and dication forms) nitrophenyl-N-methylnitramines have been considered within the constraints of the theory and the basis set employed. Depending on the closed and open-shell nature of the systems considered, B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) and UB3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level of theories have been adopted, respectively. Some quantum chemical properties of those neutral and cationic systems have been obtained and discussed. The neutral and monocation systems are found to have exothermic heat of formation values and favorable Gibbs free energy of formations at the standard state. All the neutral systems and the monocations, except just one case, are electronically stable. In the ortho monocation case nitramine group decomposes by releasing the nitro moiety. Whereas, all the dication systems considered undergo similar type decomposition. In all the neutral systems, the nitro group of nitramine moiety possesses some minute negative partial charge, but in the monocation systems it has some positive partial charge (decomposed or not). In contrast, the dication forms, release nitramine NO2 moiety which carries positive formal charge.
在目前的密度功能研究中,中性和带正电的(单和阳离子形式)硝基苯基- n -甲基硝胺在理论和所采用的基集的限制下被考虑。根据所考虑的系统的闭壳和开壳性质,分别采用了B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p)和UB3LYP/6-31++G(d,p)两个层次的理论。得到并讨论了这些中性和阳离子体系的一些量子化学性质。中性体系和单态体系在标准状态下具有放热生成热值和有利的吉布斯生成自由能。除了一种情况外,所有中性系统和单态系统都是电子稳定的。在邻位单位的情况下,硝胺基团通过释放硝基部分而分解。然而,所考虑的所有指示系统都经历类似的类型分解。在所有中性体系中,硝胺部分的硝基都带有少量的部分负电荷,而在单离子体系中,硝胺部分带有部分正电荷(分解与否)。与此相反,反应形式释放出带正形式电荷的硝胺NO2部分。

To reduce losses and increase agricultural yields, farmers, in addition to fertilizers, use pesticides to achieve their objectives. With the absence of recognized commercial companies in the sale of pesticides, growers buy these products in the local market. Most of its farmers are not trained in the management and use of pesticides, so they are often the first to introduce them. To evaluate the management and utilization of its products, a survey of 50 producers indicates that more than 20 commercial specialities are registered, of which 15 names are known. The most the pesticides are emulsifiable concentrate (EC) and two are granules. This study has shown that 76% of farmers are combined chemical fertilizer and composts and 72% of them are used pesticides for the insects. Used one week by 68% growers, 41.18% of packaging and bottles are discarded in the environment after and 5.88% of containers are brought at home. Despite frequent contact with these toxic products with different symptoms, many producers are not consulted after their campaigns for a health check-up.

The present investigation describes the synthesis and structural study of a metal-zinc ligand [NiL].H2O, which was used to generate a trinuclear complex formulated as {Ni(m-L)Na(m-L)Ni}.(SCN)0.6.(Cl)0.4. The title compound crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/acd with the following unit cell parameters: a = 185403(5) Å, c = 51.925(2) Å, V = 17849.0(3) Å3, Z = 16, R1 = 0.074 and wR2 = 0.209. Each organic molecule acts as a hexadentate ligand and bridges Ni(II) and Na(I). For both Ni(II) cations the coordination environment around the metal center can be described as distorted square planar. The Na(I) cation is eight coordinated and the polyhedron around the sodium ions is best described as a distorted square anti-prism. The means planes of the two phenyl rings with a methoxy substituent form a dihedral angle of 3.870(4)°, while the dihedral angle values of these mean planes with the means plane of the central phenyl ring are, respectively, 11.233(4)° and 14.138(3)°. The Zn–Na distance is 3.4285(7) Å. Weak hydrogen bonds involving C—H as donor and Cl, S or O as acceptor are observed.

The present investigation describes the synthesis and structural study of the ligand N'-(phenyl(pyridin-2-yl)methylene)nicotinohydrazide (HL), which was used to generate two type complexes formulated as [Ln(HL)2(NO3)2(H2O)].(NO3) (Ln = La (1) and Pr (2)) and [Ln(HL)2(NO3)(H2O)2].(NO3)2 (Ln = Nd (3), Sm (4), Gd (5) and Tb (6)). The ligand and the complexes are characterized by NMR, UV-Visible and FTIR spectroscopies, conductivity measurements and room temperature magnetic moment measurements. The [La(HL)2(NO3)2(H2O)].(NO3) compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with the following unit cell parameters: a = 16.8634(8) Å, b = 8.0615(4) Å, c = 30.2833(15) Å, V = 4116.8(3) Å3, Z = 8, R1 = 0.049 and wR2 = 0.120. The structure reveals that two neutral ligand molecules in η3-mode, two bidentate nitrate groups in η2-mode and one water molecule coordinate the central La3+. Each organic molecules acts through one carbonyl oxygen atom, one azomethine nitrogen atom and one nitrogen atom from a pyridine ring. The lanthanide ion has a coordination number of 11 and the coordination environment can be described as distorted pentacapped trigonal prism. Numerous hydrogen bonds link the molecules into three-dimensional network.

Uric acid is an Analyte. Excess uric acid ─ hyperuricemia ─ leads to gout and renal stones. Frabot noted that uric acid added to an alkaline tungstate solution developed an intense blue colour. A colorimetric method widely utilized to quantify uric acid depends on the reduction of the chromogen sodium tungstate by uric acid to produce a measurable colour change. The reaction route from the initial products to the coloured compounds and the oxido-degradation of the organic substance has not been advanced. In this communication the electron flow is given in each step of the series of reactions that take place. These are isomerization to imidol, Michael addition to enone, oxirane formation in a redox step, hydrolysis of imido group, oxirane ring opening, ring contraction to five- member ring, ring opening via alkoxide, and finally assisted decarboxylation to the end product, 5-ureido hydantoin (allantoin).

Moroxydine is an orally active non-nucleoside type antiviral agent of biguanide structure. Biguanides constitute an important class of therapeutic agents suitable for the treatment of a wide spectrum of diseases. In the present density functional study (B3LYP/6-311++(d,p)) tautomers of moroxydine have been investigated within the constraints of the theory and the basis set employed. Moroxydine may exhibit 1,3- and 1,5-type proton tautomerism. Presently, all those possible tautomeric forms are considered. All the tautomers are electronically stable and have thermo chemically favorable formation values at the standard conditions. Some quantum chemical and spectral properties of those tautomeric systems have been obtained and discussed. The effect of tautomeric variations on the chemical function descriptors have been determined. Also, the variation of polar surface areas of the tautomers have been considered in relation to their ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier.

Nevirapine is a dipyridodiazepinone and representative of a new class of anti-HIV agents, the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. The effect of some centric perturbations on some properties of nevirapine have been investigated within the limitations of density at the level of B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). The calculations have revealed that the isomers constructed are all thermally favorable and electronically stable. Various calculated properties of the isomers including geometrical, electronic, thermo chemical, quantum chemical and some spectral properties have been harvested and discussed. Additionally, nucleus-independent chemical shift, NICS(0), calculations have been performed and the effect of perturbations on the local aromaticity of six-membered rings have been investigated. The effect of monocentric carbon to nitrogen perturbations on the chemical function descriptors have been determined. Also, the variation of polar surface areas (PSA) of the isomers have been considered in relation to their ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier.

Additionally, nucleus-independent chemical shift, NICS(0), calculations have been performed and the effect of perturbations on the local aromaticity of six-membered rings have been investigated. The effect of monocentric carbon to nitrogen perturbations on the chemical function descriptors have been determined. Also, the variation of polar surface areas (PSA) of the isomers have been considered in relation to their ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78624390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cantharidine (cantharidin) has been used as a medicine for centuries for many purposes. It is also known for its anticancer properties. In the present study, some cantharidine isomers and some radicals from them are considered within the realm of density functional theory. The isomers have been subjected to B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory and the radicals from them are treated at the level of UB3LYP/6-31+G(d) level. The isomers considered are stereoisomers having the methyl groups at different stereo orientation. The calculations have revealed that the isomers are all thermally favorable and electronically stable. In each case, the mono radical formed from the isomer considered by the homolytic cleavage of C-H bond at the α-position of the etheric oxygen atom. These radicals are also thermally favorable and electronically stable. Various calculated properties of the isomers and the radicals have been harvested and discussed.
