A coordination polymer with the composition C12H20O16Zn2 (ZnBTC) (BTC = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions at 120 °C, and its crystal structure determined using single-crystal X-ray crystallography. First-principles electronic investigation of compound carried out density functional theory computational approach. The highest occupied molecular orbital, lowest unoccupied energy gap, global reactivity descriptors ZnBTC were investigated in both gas...

Lomustine is an alkylating chemotherapy drug that used to treat diverse types of cancer, including brain tumors, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin's which works by interfering with the DNA in cancer cells, preventing them from dividing growing. As such lipid bilayer cell body fluids provides environments lomustine (lmt) performs its biological function. Chemical reactions involving systems occur liquid phase, where accurate modeling reaction pathways considers influence solvent used....
