Abstract

In the present treatment, interaction of zinc cation with N-, O- or S-acetyl substituted amino-D-penicillamines are considered within the restrictions of density functional theory and the basis set employed (at the level of B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p)). N-acetyl-D-penicillamine has some medical use as a chelating agent for many metal poisoning cases such as mercury, copper (Wilson’s disease), etc. However, affinity of the aforementioned molecule depends on various factors, such as pH, and has some adverse side effects. On the other hand, zinc is very important metabolic functions in living bodies acting as cofactor in many enzyme systems. The collected data have revealed presently that the optimized structures of the composites have exothermic heats of formation and favorable Gibbs free energy of formation values. They are thermally favored and electronically stable at the standard states. Various structural and quantum chemical data have been collected and discussed, including IR and UV-VIS spectra. The data also revealed that there exists a certain complex formation between the zinc cation and the substituted amino-D-penicillamines considered.
