Employing a synergistic combination of theoretical density functional theory (DFT) and experimental techniques, we conducted a comprehensive analysis elucidating the structural and pharmacological attributes of 5-(adamantan-1-yl)-4-butyl-2,4-dihydro-3-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione (5A4BT) as a potent COX inhibitor. The X-ray crystallographic data of 5A4BT showed the pivotal role played by weak interactions, notably π-π and C-H-π interactions, alongside hydrogen bonding, in orchestrating the intricate supramolecular architectures within the crystalline lattice. A quantitative analysis of the arrangement of the crystal structure, as well as both inter- and intramolecular interactions, was conducted using Hirshfeld surfaces and 2D fingerprint plots.

The present work encompasses a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the molecular structure, vibrational wavenumbers, electronic structure at the ground and electronic excited states, molecular electrostatic potential surface of 7-(Trifluoromethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (TICA) and possibility of the title molecule as an aromatase inhibitor using molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulations. A stable conformer has been obtained using potential energy scans by varying appropriate dihedral angles. The obtained minimum energy conformer was further optimized at the 6-311++G (d, p) basis set by applying the most accepted B3LYP functional.

Extensive investigation on the molecular and electronic structure of 2-amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in the ground state and in the first excited state has been performed. The energy barrier corresponding to the conversion between imino and amino tautomers has been calculated, which indicates the existence of amino tautomer in solid state for the title compound. The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra were recorded and compared with theoretical vibrational wavenumbers, and a good coherence has been observed.

Present work aims at identifying the conformational and spectroscopic profile of 2-acetamido-5-aminopyridine compound by means of experimental and computational methods. To achieve this, three-dimensional potential energy scan (PES) was performed by varying the selected dihedral angles at B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory and thus stable conformers of the title compound were determined. The most stable conformer was further optimized at higher level and vibrational wavenumbers were calculated.

FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra of the title compound 2-{[5-(adamantan-1-yl)-4-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]sulfanyl}-N,N-dimethylethanamine were recorded and investigated. The DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method was used to compute the vibrational wavenumbers. A good coherence between experimental and theoretical wavenumbers shows the preciseness of the assignments.

The reaction of N-(2-(hydrazinecarbonyl)aryl)benzamides 2a, b with indoline-2,3-diones 4ae in acidified ethanolic solution furnished the corresponding N-(2-(2-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)hydrazinecarbonyl)phenyl)benzamides 5aj, respectively. Furthermore, 3-(2-oxoindolin-3-ylideneamino)-2-substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones 6aj were prepared by the reaction of 3-amino-2-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-one 3a, b with 4ae. Six derivatives of the twenty newly synthesized compounds showed remarkable antitumor activity against most of the tested cell lines, Daoy, UW228-2, Huh-7, Hela and MDA-MB231.

Benzenesulfonamides incorporating cyanoacrylamide moieties with activity against tumour-associated human (h) isoforms hCA IX and XII (which are validated antitumor targets) were investigated for their quantitative structural activity relationships (QSAR). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to develop model relationships between molecular descriptors and inhibition constants (Ki). The molecular geometry optimization were performed on all molecules at DFT-B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level.

Quantum chemical calculations of ground state energy, geometrical structure and vibrational wavenumbers of 1-acetylindole were carried out using density functional (DFT/B3LYP) method with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra were recorded in the condensed state. The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers were calculated and a good correlation between experimental and scaled calculated wavenumbers has been accomplished.

4-Phenyl-3H-1,3-thiazol-2-ol can exist in two tautomeric forms - keto and enol. Comprehensive investigation of molecular geometry and electronic structure in ground as well as in the first excited state of 4-Phenyl-3H-1,3-thiazol-2-ol (enol) has been carried out. To determine lowest-energy molecular conformation of the title molecule, the selected torsion angles were varied in steps of 10° and molecular energy profile was calculated from -180° to +180°.
