Abstract
Metals are beneficial to life, but the presence of these elements in excessive amounts can harm both organisms and the environment; therefore, detecting the presence of metals is essential. Currently, metal detection methods employ powerful instrumental techniques that require a lot of time and money. Hence, the development of efficient and effective metal indicators is essential. Several synthetic metal detectors have been made, but due to their risk of harm, the use of natural pigments is considered a potential alternative. Experiments are needed for their development, but they are expensive and time-consuming. This review explores various computational methods and approaches that can be used to investigate metal-pigment interactions because choosing the right methods and approaches will affect the reliability of the results. The results show that quantum mechanical methods (ab initio, density functional theory, and semiempirical approaches) and molecular dynamics simulations have been used. Among the available methods, the density functional theory approach with the B3LYP functional and the LANL2DZ ECP and basis set is the most promising combination due to its good accuracy and cost-effectiveness. Various experimental studies were also in good agreement with the results of computational methods. However, deeper analysis still needs to be carried out to find the best combination of functions and basis sets.

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to synthesize and characterize of a new three complexes of Pd (II), Cu (II), and Cu (I) metal ions with novel ligand ((Z)-2-(phenylamino)-N'-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)acetohydrazide) H2LB. The structural composition of new compounds was assessed using several analytical techniques including FT-IR, 1H-NMR, electronic spectra, powder X-ray diffraction, and thermal behavior analysis. The Gaussian09 program employed the Density Functional Theory (DFT) approach to optimize the geometry of all synthesized compounds, therefore obtaining the most favorable structures and crucial parameters. An investigation was conducted to examine the impact of γ-irradiation on ligands and complexes. Before and after γ-irradiation, the antimicrobial efficiency was investigated for the activity of ligands and their chelates. The Cu(I) complex demonstrated enhanced antibacterial activity after irradiation, as well as other standard medications such as ampicillin and gentamicin. Similarly, the Cu(I) complex exhibited superior activity against antifungal species relative to the standard drug Nystatin. The docking investigation utilized the target location of the topoisomerase enzyme (2xct) chain A.

Abstract
Bacterial resistance development represents a serious threat to human health across the globe and has become a very serious clinical problem for many classes of antibiotics. Hence, there is a constant and urgent need for the discovery and development of new effective antibacterial agents to stem the emergence of resistant bacteria. 1,4-naphthoquinones are an important class of natural products and have been known for decades as a privileged scaffold in medicinal chemistry regarding their many biological properties. The significant biological properties of specific 1,4-naphthoquinones hydroxyderivatives have drawn the attention of researchers in order to find new derivatives with an optimized activity, mainly as antibacterial agents. Based on juglone, naphthazarin, plumbagin and lawsone moieties, structural optimization was realized with the purpose of improving the antibacterial activity. Thereupon, relevant antibacterial activities have been observed on different panels of bacterial strains including resistant ones. In this review, we highlight the interest of developing new 1,4-naphthoquinones hydroxyderivatives and some metal complexes as promising antibacterial agents alternatives. Here, we thoroughly report for the first time both the antibacterial activity and the chemical synthesis of four different 1,4-naphthoquinones (juglone, naphthazarin, plumbagin and lawsone) from 2002 to 2022 with an emphasis on the structure-activity relationship, when applicable.

Abstract
A new series of Zr(IV), V(IV), Ru(III), and Cd(II) complexes with the ligand N-((5-hydroxy-4-oxo-4H-pyran-3-yl)methylene)-2-(p-tolylamino)acetohydrazide (H2L) have been prepared. FT-IR, 1H-NMR, electronic spectra, powder X-ray, and thermal behavior methods were applied to elucidate the structural composition of new compounds. Geometry optimization for all synthesized compounds was conducted using the Gaussian09 program via the DFT method, to obtain optimal structures and essential parameters. Moreover, the antibacterial and antitumor activity of the ligand and its complexes were studied, where the Cd(II) complex acquires probably the best antibacterial activity followed by the Ru(III) complex towards bacterial species than others when using ampicillin and gentamicin were used as standard drugs. The complexes exhibited interestingly antitumor potential against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The cytotoxicity of the new complexes has been arranged to follow the order: Ru(III) complex > Cd(II) complex > Zr(IV) complex > V(IV) complex > ligand. Molecular docking was performed on the active site of ribosyltransferase and obtained good results. Structure-based molecular docking is used to identify a potential therapeutic inhibitor for NUDT5.

Synthesis, Theoretical Calculation, and Biological Studies of Mono- and Diphenyltin(IV) Complexes of N-Methyl- N-hydroxyethyldithiocarbamate. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27092947.

Abstract
In this study, chlorophenyltin(IV) [(C6H5)(Cl)Sn(L)2] and diphenyltin(IV) [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2] of N-methyl-N-hydroxyethyldithiocarbamate were prepared and characterized using various spectroscopic methods (FTIR, 1H, 13C, and 119Sn NMR) and elemental analysis. The FTIR and NMR spectral data, used to establish the structure of the compounds, showed the formation of the complexes via coordination to the two sulfur atoms from the dithiocarbamate ligand and the respective phenyltin(IV) derivatives. This coordination mode was further explored by DFT calculations, which showed that the bonding around the Sn center in [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2] was more asymmetric compared to the bonding around [(C6H5)(Cl)Sn(L)2]. However, the Sn–S bonds in [(C6H5)(Cl)Sn(L)2] were found to be more covalent than those in [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2]. Furthermore, the charge density of the frontier orbitals showed that the Sn atom in the complexes is relatively electrophilic and the Sn atom in [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2] has a lower atomic dipole moment than that of [(C6H5)(Cl)Sn(L)2]. The cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory study revealed that [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2], with the higher number of phenyl substituents, has a higher potency than [(C6H5)(Cl)Sn(L)2]. The bio-efficacy study of these complexes as cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory agents showed that the complexes possessed moderate to high activity in comparison to the camptothecin and diclofenac in each case. Nevertheless, the diphenyltin(IV) derivative [(C6H5)2Sn(L)2] was found to possess a better activity than its counterpart due to the number of phenyl rings attached to the Sn center.

Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole 3 was reported, which was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, NMR and HRMS) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure 3 (C8H6ClN3S) crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Pna21 and the unit cell consisted of 8 asymmetric molecules. The unit cell parameters were a = 11.2027(2) Å, b = 7.6705(2) Å, c = 21.2166(6) Å, α = β = γ = 90°, V = 1823.15(8) Å3, Z = 8. In addition, the structural geometry (bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles), the electronic properties of mono and dimeric forms of compound 3 were calculated by using the density functional theory (DFT) method at B3LYP level 6-31+ G(d,p), 6-31++ G(d,p) and 6-311+ G(d,p) basis sets in ground state. A good correlation was found (R2 = 0.998) between the observed and theoretical vibrational frequencies. Frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) and Molecular Electrostatic Potential map of the compound was produced by using the optimized structures. The NBO analysis was suggested that the molecular system contains N-H…N hydrogen bonding, strong conjugative interactions and the molecule become more polarized owing to the movement of π-electron cloud from donor to acceptor. The calculated structural and geometrical results were in good rational agreement with the experimental X-ray crystal structure data of 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amine, 3. The compound 3 exhibited n→π* UV absorption peak of UV cutoff edge, and great magnitude of the first-order hyperpolarizability was observed. The obtained results suggest that compound 3 could have potential application as NLO material. Therefore, this study provides valuable insight experimentally and theoretically, for designing new chemical entities to meet the demands of specific applications.

The catalytic role of water in the binding site of l,d-transpeptidase 2 within acylation mechanism: A QM/MM (ONIOM) modelling. Tuberculosis (Edinb) 2018; 113:222-230.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of Tuberculosis. Formation of 3 → 3 crosslinks in the peptidoglycan layer of M. tuberculosis is catalyzed by l,d-transpeptidases. These enzymes can confer resistance against classical β-lactams that inhibit enzymes that generate 4 → 3 peptidoglycan crosslinks. The focus of this study is to investigate the catalytic role of water molecules in the acylation mechanism of the β-lactam ring within two models; 4- and 6-membered ring systems using two-layered our Own N-layer integrated Molecular Mechanics ONIOM (B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2p): AMBER) model. The obtained thermochemical parameters revealed that the 6-membered ring model best describes the inhibition mechanism of acylation which indicates the role of water in the preference of 6-membered ring reaction pathway. This finding is in accordance with experimental data for the rate-limiting step of cysteine protease with the same class of inhibitor and binding affinity for both inhibitors. As expected, the ΔG# results also reveal that the 6-membered ring reaction pathway is the most favourable. The electrostatic potential (ESP) and the natural bond orbital analysis (NBO) showed stronger interactions in 6-membered ring transition state (TS-6) mechanism involving water in the active site of the enzyme. This study could be helpful in the development of novel antibiotics against l,d-transpeptidase.
