The McMillan-Mayer (MM) free energy per unit volume of solution AMM, is employed as a generating function of the MM system of thermodynamic quantities for solutions in the state of osmotic equilibrium with pure solvent. This system can be defined by replacing the quantities G, T, P, and m in the definition of the Lewis-Randall (LR) system by AMM, T, P0, and c (P0 being the pure solvent pressure). Following this way the LR to MM conversion relations for the first derivatives of the free energy are obtained in a simple form. New relations are derived for its second derivatives.

AbstractUsing the density functional theory (DFT) formalism, we have investigated the properties of some arylsulphonyl indazole derivatives that we studied previously for their biological activity and susceptibility to interactions of azoles. This study includes the following physicochemical properties of these derivatives: electronegativity and polarisability (Mulliken charges, adjusted charge partitioning, and iterative-adjusted charge partitioning approaches); free energy of solvation (solvation model based on density model and M062X functional); highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)–lowest occupied molecular orbital (LUMO) gap together with the corresponding condensed Fukui functions, time-dependent DFT along with the UV spectra simulations using B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, MPW1PW91, and WB97XD functionals, as well as linear response polarisable continuum model; and estimation of global chemical reactivity descriptors, particularly the chemical hardness factor. The charges on pyrrolic and pyridinic nitrogen (the latter one in the quinolone ring of compound 8, as well as condensed Fukui functions) reveal a significant role of these atoms in potential interactions of azole ligand–protein binding pocket. The lowest negative value of free energy of solvation can be attributed to carbazole 6, whereas pyrazole 7 has the least negative value of this energy. Moreover, the HOMO–LUMO gap and chemical hardness show that carbazole 6 and indole 5 exist as soft molecules, while fused pyrazole 7 has hard character.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus has been spreading rapidly, and scientists are endeavouring to discover drugs for its efficacious treatment. Chloroquine phosphate, an old drug for treatment of malaria, has shown to have apparent efficacy and acceptable safety against COVID-19. As a part of Drug Discovery Hackathon-2020, in this study, the authors have tried making the derivatives of CQ and HCQ using MarvinSketch by ChemAxon. Molecular docking studies of these ligands were performed using Glide by Schrodinger, and ADME profiles were obtained by using QikProp. The obtained results after data analysis demonstrated that ligands HCQ_imidazoll, choloroquine_3c, HCQ_pyrrolC had good binding affinity and complied with all the ADME parameters. The molecular dynamic simulation of these ligands in complex with the 2019-nCoV RBD/ACE-2-B0AT1 complex PDB ID: 6M17 were carried out, and the parameters like RMSD, RMSF, and radius of gyration were observed to understand the fluctuations and protein-ligand interaction.
