[ 1 ] - Adsorption of proline amino acid on the surface of fullerene (C20) and boron nitride cage (B12N12): A comprehensive DFT study

In this study, the performance of fullerene (C20) and boron nitride cage (B12N12) as a sensing material for detection of proline was evaluated by density functional theory. For this purpose, the structures of proline, C20, B12N12 and the derived products from the proline adsorption on the surface of nanostructures were optimized geometrically. Then, IR and Frontier molecular orbital calculation...

[ 2 ] - Evaluation of C60 nano-structure performance as nano-carriers of procarbazine anti-cancer drug using density functional theory methods

The study examined surface adsorption of fullerene C60 with anticancer drug procarbazine in gas and solvent (water) phases using the DFT method. In doing so, the structure of the procarbazine, fullerene and their derivatives were first geometrically optimized in three different configurations with a base set of 6-31 g * and B3LYP hybrid functions. Then, IR calculations, frontier molecular orbit...
