The total free energy of a molecule includes the classical molecular mechanical energy (which is understood as the free energy in vacuum) and the solvation energy which is caused by the change of the environment of the molecule (solute) from vacuum to solvent. The solvation energy is important to the study of the inter-molecular interactions. In this paper we develop a fast surface-based genera...

the use of quantitative structure–activity relationships, since its advent, has becomeincreasingly helpful in understanding many aspects of biochemical interactions in drug research.this approach was utilized to explain the relationship of structure with biological activity ofantibacterial. for the development of new fungicides against, the quantitative structural–activityrelationship (qsar) an...

This paper presents an exact solution for the free energy of linear solvation of a dipolar solute in an arbitrary dielectric material with a microscopic spectrum of polarization fluctuations. The solution is given in terms of wave vector-dependent longitudinal and transverse structure factors of the polarization fluctuations in the pure dielectric. Good agreement with computer simulations of di...

some of the adamantane properties were calculated in this study. chemical shift, free energy ofsolvation, free energy of cavity formation, henry's law constant, and other properties ofadamantane in dry phase, three solvents and three temperatures have been calculated with abinitio method base on density functional theory (dft) at b3lyp/6-31g, b31yp/6-31g*, b3lyp/6-31+g* and b3lyp/6-31++g** leve...

Derivatives of thiocarbohydrazone studied so far have shown great biological activity such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer. Most these compounds are bis-substituted derivatives, while monothiocarbohydrazones much less investigated. Еighteen were synthesized subjected to physicochemical characterization in order facilitate the examination their potential application future studies....

Stabilities and quantum molecular descriptors of cyclophoshphamide (an anticancer drug)-functionalized (8,0) zigzag and (4,4) armchair carbon nanotubes (CNTs) complexes in water were studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Two attachments namely the sidewall- and tip-attachments are considered for the model constructions. Calculations of the total electronic energy (Et) and ...

An efficient approach that combines the electrostatically embedded generalized molecular fractionation with conjugate caps (EE-GMFCC) method with conductor-like polarizable continuum model (CPCM), termed EE-GMFCC-CPCM, is developed for ab initio calculation of the electrostatic solvation energy of proteins. Compared with the previous MFCC-CPCM study [Y. Mei, C. G. Ji, and J. Z. H. Zhang, J. Che...

Computation of the solvation free energy for chemical and biological processes has long been of significant interest. The key challenges to effective solvation modeling center on the choice of potential function and configurational sampling. Herein, an energy sampling approach termed the “Movable Type” (MT) method, and a statistical energy function for solvation modeling, “Knowledge-based and E...
