Abstract
In this work we have investigated in details the spectroscopic and reactive properties of newly synthesized imidazole derivative, namely the 1-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-dimethyl-imidazole 3-oxide (HHPDI). FT-IR and NMR spectra were measured and compared with theoretically obtained data provided by calculations of potential energy distribution and chemical shifts, respectively. Insight into the global reactivity properties has been obtained by analysis of frontier molecular orbitals, while local reactivity properties have been investigated by analysis of charge distribution, ionization energies and Fukui functions. NBO analysis was also employed to understand the stability of molecule, while hyperpolarizability has been calculated in order to assess the nonlinear optical properties of title molecule. Sensitivity towards autoxidation and hydrolysis mechanisms has been investigated by calculations of bond dissociation energies and radial distribution functions, respectively. Molecular docking study was also performed, in order to determine the pharmaceutical potential of the investigated molecule.
