Abstract
- 1,4-Dialkylamino -5,8-dihydroxy anthraquinones are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) for their growth inhibitory potential. The frontier molecular orbital shows that the electron density is located at the anthraquinone core and at the substituents NH and OH in both HOMO as well as in LUMO. The chemical potential and electrophilicity index showed a direct relation, while hardness and hyperhardness had an inverse association with an energy gap. The results of the molecular docking analysis revealed that the anthraquinone molecules have a high affinity for the primary targets of the DNA topoisomerase IIα enzyme. The docking results showed good binding ability with extremely energetically stable scores ranging from -8.9 to -7.6 kcal/mol. Electron correlation descriptors showed a direct link with NLO properties and toxicity.
