Conformational, spectroscopic, electronic and Molecular docking Studies on 2-methoxy-4-methyl-5-nitropyridine: A potential bioactive agent

Spectroscopic investigations, quantum chemical, drug likeness and molecular docking studies of methyl 1-methyl-4-nitro-pyrrole-2-carboxylate: A novel ovarian cancer drug

Density functional theory (DFT) calculation was used to analyse the structural and vibrational properties of Methyl 1-Methyl-4-nitro-pyrrole-2-carboxylate (MMNPC) using the cc-pVTZ basis set. The potential energy surface scan and the most stable molecular structure were optimized using Gaussian 09 program. A potential energy distribution calculation was used to calculate and assign vibrational frequencies using the VEDA 4.0 program package. The Frontier Molecular Orbitals (FMOs) were analysed to determine their related molecular properties. Ab initio density functional theory (B3LYP/cc-pVTZ) method with basis set was used to calculate 13C NMR chemical shift values of MMNPC in the ground state. Fukui function and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis confirmed the bioactivity of the MMNPC molecule. The charge delocalization and stability of the title compound were studied using natural bond orbital analysis. All experimental spectral values from FT-IR, FT-Raman, UV-VIS, and 13C NMR are in good agreement with the value calculated by the DFT. Molecular docking analysis was carried out to find the MMNPC compound that can be used as a potential drug development candidate for ovarian cancer.
