Abstract

The Schiff base (E)-4-((2-hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzylidene)amino)-N-(pyrimidine)-2-yl) benzene sulfonamide (DIDA) compound was synthesis with condensation of 3,5-diiodosalicylaldehyde and sulfadiazine. The compound characterized with FTIR, X-ray crystallography and electronic spectra. The titled compound associated with experimental and theoretical method, DFT used for the theoretical method. The IR was calculated from DFT mode with B3LYP/GENSEP basic set. The electronic spectra computed from TD-DFT method with CAM-B3LYP functional, with IEFPCM solvation model and DMSO used as the solvent. Wave function based properties like localized orbital locator, electron localization function and non-covalent interactions have been studied extensively. The ADMET properties of the compound DIDA indicated that the compound has excellent drug likeness properties and PASS studies showed that it has anti-infective properties, which is confirmed by a docking score of -7.4 kcal/mol.
