[ 1 ] - A Density Functional Theory Investigation of d8 Transition Metal(II) (Ni, Pd, Pt) Chloride Complexes of Some Vic-dioximes Derivatives
Herein, a theoretical study on the stability of some vic-dioxime complexes of Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) in gas and aqueous phases is reported. The DFT/M06/SDD and DFT/M06/6-31G+(d,p) levels of theory were adopted for the metal ions and for every other element respectively. Structural analyses of investigated complexes have revealed square planar geometries stabilized by two O–H⋯Cl hydrogen bond...
[ 2 ] - DFT Studies and Topological Analyses of Electron Density on Acetophenone and Propiophenone Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives as Covalent Inhibitors of Falcipain-2, a Major Plasmodium Falciparum Cysteine Protease
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) possess significant antimalarial properties believed to be linked to the inhibition of major cysteine proteases, such as falcipain-2, in Plasmodium falciparum. However, the binding modes of TSCs to the active site of these enzymes are not clear. As a result of this, the nature of the bonding interactions between the active site of falcipain-2 and different derivatives ...
