Abstract: This study aims to investigate the capability of aluminum-doped nanotubes, silicon-doped nanotubes, and silicon carbide nanotubes to adsorb Hydroxychloroquine (C18H26ClN3O) molecular using DFT theory at 6-31G** basis set and M062x level of theory. The calculated results indicate that the distance between nanotubes and the drug from the N site is lower than from all other locations sites for all investigated nanotubes, and adsorption is more favorable, especially for Al-CNT nanotube. The adsorption energy, hardness, softness, and fermi energy results reveal that the interaction of Hydroxychloroquine with Al-CNT is stronger than Si-CNT and SiC-NT. The results clarify that Al-CNT is a promising adsorbent for this drug as Eads of Hydroxychloroquine/Al-CNT complexes are --45.07, --15.78, --45.15, --93.53 kcal/mol in the gas phase and --43.02, --14.43, --43.86, --88.97 kcal/mol for aqueous solution. The energy gap of the Hydroxychloroquine/Al-CNT system is in the range of 2.32 to 3.84 eV. |
