The formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond in pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-1(2H)-one bicyclic diazoles was analyzed, and the influence of N-substitution on HB formation is discussed in this study. B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ calculations were performed for the diazole, and the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) approach as well as the natural bond orbital (NBO) method was applied to analyze the strength of this interaction. It was found that the intramolecular hydrogen bond that closes an extra ring between the C=O proton acceptor group and the CH proton donor, that is, C=O⋯H–C, influences the spectroscopic properties of pyrrolopyrazine bicyclic diazoles, particularly the carbonyl frequencies. The influence of N-substitution on the aromaticity of heterocyclic rings is also discussed in this report.

The conformational isomerism and stereoelectronic interactions present in 2'-haloflavonols were computationally analyzed. On the basis of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, the conformer stabilities of 2'-haloflavonols were found to be dictated mainly by a C=O···H–O intramolecular hydrogen bond, but an unusual C–F···H–O hydrogen-bond and intramolecular C–X···O nonbonding interactions are also present in such compounds.

: Leflunomide (LFM) and its active metabolite, teriflunomide (TFM), have drawn a lot of attention for their anticancer activities, treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and malaria due to their capability to inhibit dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) and Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) enzyme. In this investigation, the strength of intramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) in five analogs of TFM (ATFM) has been analyzed employing density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) level and molecular orbital analysis in the gas phase and water solution. A detailed electronic structure study has been performed using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and the hydrogen bond energies (EHB) of stable conformer obtained in the range of 76-97 kJ/mol, as a medium hydrogen bond. The effect of substitution on the IHB nature has been studied by natural bond orbital analysis (NBO). 1H NMR calculations show an upward trend in the proton chemical shift of the enolic proton in the chelated ring (14.5 to 15.7ppm) by increasing the IHB strength. All the calculations confirmed the strongest IHB in 5-F-ATFM and the weakest IHB in 2-F-ATFM. Molecular orbital analysis, including the HOMO-LUMO gap and chemical hardness, was performed to compare the reactivity of inhibitors. Finally, molecular docking analysis was carried out to identify the potency of inhibition of these compounds against PfDHODH enzyme.
