Tuning the Computational Evaluation of Spectroscopic, ELF, LOL, NCI analysis and Molecular Docking of Novel Anti COVID-19 Molecule 4-Dimethylamino Pyridinium 3, 5-Dichlorosalicylate.

In this work novel antiviral compound 4-(Dimethylamino) Pyridinium 3, 5-dichlorosalicylate was synthesized and characterized by UV-vis, FT-IR, FT-Raman, H NMR and C NMR spectra. Quantum chemical computations were carried out by Density functional theory methods at B3LYP level. Electronic stability of the compound arising from hyper conjugative interactions and charge delocalization is investigated using natural bond orbital analysis. Assignments of vibrational spectra have been carried out with the aid of Normal coordinate analysis following the SQMFF methodology. TD-DFT approach was applied to assign the electronic transition observed in UV visible spectrum measured experimentally. Frontier molecular orbital energy gap affirms the bioactivity of the molecule and NCI analysis gives information about inter and intra non covalent interactions. ESP recognises the nucleophilic and electrophilic regions of molecule and the chemical implication of molecule was explained using ELF, LOL. The reactive sites of the compound were studied from the Fukui function calculations and chemical descriptors define the reactivity of the molecule. Molecular docking done with SARS and MERS proteins endorses the bioactivity of molecule and drug likeness factors were calculated to comprehend the biological assets of DADS.
