DFT Study of Interaction between Teriflunomide and β-cyclodextrin.

Introduction: This study employs Density Functional Theory (DFT) to investigate the interactions between Teriflunomide and β-cyclodextrin in the gas phase.

Method: The non-bonded interaction effects of the Teriflunomide compound with β- cyclodextrin on the chemical shift tensors, electronic properties, and natural charge were also observed. An analysis of the natural bond orbital (NBO) indicated that the molecule β-cyclodextrin as an electron donor functions while Teriflunomide functions as an electron acceptor in the complex β-cyclodextrin/Teriflunomide.

Theoretical study of interaction between temozolomide anticancer drug and hydroxyethyl carboxymethyl cellulose nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery by DFT quantum mechanical calculation.

In this article for the first time the quantum calculations of 3-methyl-4-oxoimidazo[5,1-d][1,2,3,5]tetrazine-8-carboxamide (Temozolomide) in HCM-Cellulose Substrate are evaluated using the B3LYP/6-31G level of theory. The non-bonded interaction effects of the molecule Temozolomide, HCM-Cellulose on the electronic properties, chemical shift tensors and natural charge have also been detected. Natural bond orbital analysis (NBO) suggests that Temozolomide as an electron donor and HCM-Cellulose acted as an electron acceptor in the Temozolomide/HCM-Cellulose complex.

Synthesis of Some New Tetrahydropyrimidine Derivatives as Possible Antibacterial Agents.

Heterocyclic compounds containing a pyrimidine nucleus are of special interests thanks to their applications in medicinal chemistry as they are the basic skeleton of several bioactive compounds such as antifungal, antibacterial, antitumor and antitubercular. As a part of our research in the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives containing biological activities, some new tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives (1-10) were synthesized via Biginelli reaction using HCl or DABCO as a catalyst with good yields. All structures of products were confirmed by IR, H NMR and C NMR spectroscopy.
