Abstract

This manuscript aims to look at the structure and the other physical and chemical properties of solriamfetol, which is used to treat excessive sleepiness, using electronic structure methods. Density functional theory optimizes the ground state geometries of the molecules, and the frontier molecular orbitals are analyzed using B3LYP functional and 6-311++G (2d,p) basis sets. They give ample information regarding the electronic properties and descriptors, which can be used to predict the same molecule's biological activity. Evaluation of aromaticity has been performed using the nuclear induced chemical shift (NICS) measurements. Electrostatic potential, average local ionization energy and the assessment of non-covalent interactions in the molecule show effects biological activity potential. The sound interaction between the drug molecule with cucurbit[8]uril strongly advocates its possibility be used as a drug delivery system.
