Abstract
In this study, a novel Pyrazoline derivative viz. 1-(3-(3, 4-dimethoxyphenyl)-7-methoxy-3, 3 a, 4, 5-tetrahydro-2H-benzo [g] indazol-2-yl) ethan-1-one was synthesized and characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound was evaluated in a human cervical cancer cell line and showed significant anticancer activity. DFT quantum chemical calculations were performed to analyze the structural stability and electronic features. Intermolecular interactions were studied using Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots based on the X-ray diffraction data. The geometry was optimized at the B3LYP/6-31G(d, p) level and the calculated NMR chemical shifts were in good agreement with the experimental data. TD-DFT was employed to determine the electronic characteristics from the UV-visible spectrum. Additionally, Molecular Electrostatic Potential, Fukui Function, Nonlinear Optical Quality and Natural Bond Orbital analysis were performed to assess global reactivity parameters and other key properties.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Molecular Structure is dedicated to the publication of full-length articles and review papers, providing important new structural information on all types of chemical species including:
• Stable and unstable molecules in all types of environments (vapour, molecular beam, liquid, solution, liquid crystal, solid state, matrix-isolated, surface-absorbed etc.)
• Chemical intermediates
• Molecules in excited states
• Biological molecules
• Polymers.
The methods used may include any combination of spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic techniques, for example:
• Infrared spectroscopy (mid, far, near)
• Raman spectroscopy and non-linear Raman methods (CARS, etc.)
• Electronic absorption spectroscopy
• Optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism
• Fluorescence and phosphorescence techniques
• Electron spectroscopies (PES, XPS), EXAFS, etc.
• Microwave spectroscopy
• Electron diffraction
• NMR and ESR spectroscopies
• Mössbauer spectroscopy
• X-ray crystallography
• Charge Density Analyses
• Computational Studies (supplementing experimental methods)
We encourage publications combining theoretical and experimental approaches. The structural insights gained by the studies should be correlated with the properties, activity and/ or reactivity of the molecule under investigation and the relevance of this molecule and its implications should be discussed.
