ABSTRACT

Quercitrin is an anti-lung cancer agent. It is a naturally occurring flavonoid and its derivatives are mainly present in nuts and beverages. It is mainly available as a glycoside, and the quercitrin glycosides are found to prevent the metastasis of cancer. Quercitrin is optimized with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set using the B3LYP method to attain its minimum energy structure. The vibrational studies of the Quercitrin compound were elucidated with reference to Potential Energy Distribution (PED). The geometrical parameters were obtained and correlated with experimental values. To examine the nature of the charge transfer mechanism of Quercitrin, the HOMO-LUMO energy gap is computed. The anti-cancer activity of Quercitrin has been explored using molecular docking study that are used to estimate how the ligand interacts with protein, specifically to identify the best-fit orientation of the ligand, its binding mode, and intermolecular interactions of amino acid residues in the binding region of B-RAF kinase protein. The binding affinity of the compound Quercitrin (-7.14 kcal/mol) was found using AutoDock and validated with a Glide XP score in Schrodinger tool (-8.01 kcal/mol). MD simulations of protein-ligand complexes were monitored for 100 ns, from which the RMSD, RMSF, Rg, H-bonds, and interaction energy calculations were executed. From these investigations, it is identified that the compound quercitrin has maintained good structural stability, compactness, higher Hydrogen bonds, and interaction energies than the Imidazopyridinyl benzamide inhibitor.

ABSTRACT

The IUPAC name of curcumin is (1E, 6E)-1,7-Bis(4-hydroxy-3methoxyphenyl) hepta-1,6-e-3,5-dione (7B3M5D) and is characterized by spectroscopic profiling with FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra obtained both experimentally and theoretically. PED analysis was done for the confirmation of minimum energy obtained in the title compound. Optimized geometrical parameters are compared with experimental values obtained for 7B3M5D by utilizing B3LYP functional employing 6-311++G (d,p) level of theory. The HOMO-LUMO, MEP, and Fukui function analysis has been used to elucidate the information regarding charge transfer within the molecule. The stabilization energy and charge delocalization of the 7B3M5D were performed by NBO analysis. This article assesses that the title compound act as a potential inhibitor of the PI3K/AKT inhibitor through in silico studies, like molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD), ADMET prediction and also this molecule obeys Lipinski's rule of five. 7B3M5D was docked effectively in the active site of PI3K/AKT inhibitor.

ABSTRACT

The Cyclophosphamide (CYC) is used as an anti cancer agent. It is chemically known as (RS)-N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1,3,2-oxazaphosphinan-2-amine 2-oxide. The vibrational assignments survey of the CYC was implemented by employing FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopic investigation and the results are compared with theoretical features. The optimized geometrical parameters, IR intensity and Raman Activity of the vibrational bands of CYC were determined from the B3LYP functional with 6-311++G (d, p) level of theory. In the current work, quantum chemical calculations were adopted to contemplate the vibrational assignments of CYC and the outcomes are compared with experimental findings. Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP) and HOMO-LUMO energies are very effective in the examination of charge transfer and distribution of the molecular structure. The molecular orbital contributions were evaluated by using the Total Density of States (TDOS). The analysis of Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), Mulliken population and Fukui function studies were done. Intermolecular interaction of the title compound was examined through Hirshfeld surface analysis. The evaluation of drug-likeness was accomplished in accordance with Lipinski's Rule of Five and molecular descriptors were utilized to predict the ADMET profiles of the CYC molecule. The recent research studies reports that the structural and bio-activity of the CYC was affirmed by the docking analysis of CYC with protein PI3K/AKT inhibitor, it acts as anti-lung cancer agent.
