Abstract This paper is a new step in helping the treatment of coronavirus by improving the performance of chloroquine drug. For this purpose, we propose a complex of chloroquine drug with graphene nanoribbon (GNR) scheme. We compute the structural and electrical properties and absorption of chloroquine (C18H26ClN3) and GNR complex using the density functional theory (DFT) method. By creating a drug and GNR complex, the density of states of electrons increases and the energy gap decreases compared to the chloroquine. Also, using absorption calculations and spectrums such as infrared and UV-Vis spectra, we showed that GNR is a suitable structure for creating chloroquine drug complex. Our results show that the dipole moment, global softness and electrophilicity for the drug complex increases compared to the non-complex state. Our calculations can be useful for increasing performance and reducing the side effects of chloroquine, and thus can be effective in treating coronavirus.

Computational investigations on the bisphospholanoethane (BPE)-ligated Cu-catalyzed enantioselective addition of enynes to ketones were performed with the density functional theory (DFT) method. Two BPE-mesitylcopper (CuMes) catalysts, BPE-CuMes and (S,S)-Ph-BPE–CuMes, were employed to probe the reaction mechanism with the emphasis on stereoselectivity. The calculations on the BPE-CuMes system indicate that the active metallized enyne intermediate acts as the catalyst for the catalytic cycle. The catalytic cycle involves two steps: (1) ketone addition to the alkene moiety of the metallized enyne; and (2) metallization of the enyne followed by the release of product with the recovery of the active metallized enyne intermediate. The first step accounts for the distribution of the products, and therefore is the stereo-controlling step in chiral systems. In the chiral (S,S)-Ph-BPE–CuMes system, the steric hindrance is vital for the distribution of products and responsible for the stereoselectivity of this reaction. The steric hindrance between the phenyl ring of the two substrates and groups at the chiral centers in the ligand skeleton is identified as the original of the stereoselectivity for the titled reaction.

The effect of La on the diffusion of Nb in fcc Fe has been investigated using the first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. The binding energies of Nb–vacancy, La–vacancy and La–Nb pairs have been calculated. The interactions of Nb–vacancy and La–Nb are attractive in 1nn and 2nn configurations (nn: nearest–neighbor). La atom attracts strongly with the 1nn vacancy, but has a weakly repulsive interaction with the 2nn vacancy. We consider four different Nb jumps in the presence of La atom to investigate the Nb diffusion in terms of vacancy formation and migration energy. The results suggest that La increases the diffusion activation energy of Nb in fcc Fe matrix, and is helpful to decelerate the Nb-diffusion-involved phase transformation process.
