Complex drugs based on C 6 0 fullerence and pyrrole derivatives are promising for the development of antitumor and anti-inflammatory agents for use in targeted therapy, but have little efficiency in the synthesis of such complexes and have virtually no stable synthesis products with fullerene. The stability of the nanocomplex based on [60] PCBA and the intermediate compound based on " 1 H -pyrrole-2,5-dione" effective for the synthesis of targeted therapeutic agents was investigated by means of numerical calculations. The application of quantum-chemical methods in the Gaussian package establishes the stability of the nanocomplex at human body temperatures, the possibility of using such complexes for further study of the therapeutic properties of the individual components of the decomposition products of the nanocomplex.

In the present work, we study the influence of adsorbed impurities, namely potassium atoms, on the energy spectrum of electrons in graphene. The electron states of the system are described in the frame of the self-consistent multiband strong-coupling model. It is shown that, at the ordered arrangement of potassium atoms corresponding to a minimum of the free energy, the gap arises in the energy spectrum of graphene. It is established that, at the potassium concentration such that the unit cell includes two carbon atoms and one potassium atom, the latter being placed on the graphene surface above a carbon atom at a distance of 0.286 nm, the energy gap is equal to 0.25 eV. Such situation is realized if graphene is placed on a potassium support. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
