Different types of gold nanoparticles have been synthesized that show great potential in medical applications such as medical imaging, bio-analytical sensing and photothermal cancer therapy. However, their stability, polydispersity and biocompatibility are major issues of concern. For example, the synthesis of gold nanorods, obtained through the elongated micelle process, produce them with a high positive surface charge that is cytotoxic, while gold nanoshells are unstable and break down in a few weeks due to the Ostwald ripening process. In this work, we report the self-assembly of the capsid protein (CP) of cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV) around spherical gold nanoparticles, gold nanorods and gold nanoshells to form virus-like particles (VLPs). All gold nanoparticles were synthesized or treated to give them a negative surface charge, so they can interact with the positive N-terminus of the CP leading to the formation of the VLPs. To induce the protein self-assembly around the negative gold nanoparticles, we use different pH and ionic strength conditions determined from a CP phase diagram. The encapsidation with the viral CP will provide the nanoparticles better biocompatibility, stability, monodispersity and a new biological substrate on which can be introduced ligands toward specific cells, broadening the possibilities for medical applications.

The present work investigates attempts to cyclise 1-phenyl-5-(3-aryltriaz-1-en-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole- 4-carbonitriles to the desired pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazinimine derivatives. The cyclisations were unfruitful, and a density functional theory study was performed. This revealed the 1-phenyl-5-(3-aryltriaz-1-en-1-yl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles are more stable than the targeted pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazinimine derivatives, indicating that their cyclisation is thermodynamically disfavoured; the reactant 8c is more stable than the predicted six-membered ring products 9c by 5 kJ/mol. The effect of isomerisation of the methoxy-phenyl group in the self-assembly of 8c and 8d in the crystalline lattice was investigated. The intermolecular forces in solid state were analysed in the two structural isomers 8c and 8d using calculated HirshFeld surface; the analysis indicates that the intermolecular forces are stronger in 8c than 8d and hence 8c is denser than 8d by 0.071g/mL.
