Theoretical Description of Electromagnetic Nonbonded Interactions of Radical, Cationic, and Anionic NH2BHNBHNH2 Inside of the B18N18 Nanoring
TL;DR: In this article, the electromagnetic nonbounded interactions of the NH2BHNBHNH2 molecule inside of the B18N18 ring have been investigated with hybrid density functional theory (B3LYP) using the EPR-III and EPR II basis sets for a physicochemical explanation of electromagnetic non-bounded interaction within these nanosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of N-methylation of amino acids (Ac-X-OMe) on solubility and conformation: a DFT study
Shah Md. Abdur Rauf,Per I. Arvidsson,Per I. Arvidsson,Fernando Albericio,Thavendran Govender,Glenn E. M. Maguire,Hendrik G. Kruger,Bahareh Honarparvar +7 more
TL;DR: The results reveal that after mono N-methylation of the peptide backbone, ΔGsolv becomes more negative (more water soluble) while polarizability and dipole moment are also increased, and natural atomic charges derived by natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis of N, C, and O atoms involved in amide functional group become more positive/(less negative) after N- methylation.

Green synthesis, characterization and electrochemical sensing of silymarin by ZnO nanoparticles: Experimental and DFT studies
Deepali Sharma,Myalowenkosi I. Sabela,Suvardhan Kanchi,Krishna Bisetty,Adam A. Skelton,Bahareh Honarparvar +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic approach was used for the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) with an average size of 4-8nm using Carica papaya seed extract.
Journal ArticleDOI
QSAR analysis on tacrine-related acetylcholinesterase inhibitors
Kai Y Wong,Andrew G. Mercader,Laura Saavedra,Bahareh Honarparvar,Gustavo P. Romanelli,Pablo R. Duchowicz +5 more
TL;DR: The QSAR models developed in this work have a satisfactory predictive ability, and are obtained by selecting the most representative molecular descriptors of the chemical structure, represented through more than a thousand of constitutional, topological, geometrical, quantum-mechanical and electronic descriptor types.
