12 Investigating the biological actions of some Schiff bases using density functional theory study
-
Tunde L. Yusuf
Abstract
Schiff base ligands have wide varieties of application in several fields. One of which is the biological actions they possess such as anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-malarial, and anti-viral characteristics. In this study, some synthesized phenylimino- based Schiff bases were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) to unravel their biological descriptors. The gas-phase quantum chemical calculation was done on the Schiff base 3-((E)-(phenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol and other synthesized analogues to evaluate their reactivity and stability properties including the substituent effect on the basic molecule. The Coulomb-attenuating method (CAM-B3LYP) functional was employed for the theoretical calculations. The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR), Ultraviolet/visible spectroscopies calculated agrees with the experimental values. The obtained charge transfer and electronic features provide useful information regarding the active sites for biological application in the compounds.
