Abstract:
Isorhapontigenin (IRPG) drug emerges as promising efficient inhibitor for H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes which belong to influenza A virus; reported with IC50 value of 35.62 and 63.50 μM respectively. When experimental data are compared to the predicted geometrical parameters and vibrational assignments (FT-IR and FT-Raman), the findings indicated a strong correlation. The absorption bands of π→π∗ transitions are revealed through UV-Vis electronic properties; this confirms that the IRPG molecule shows strong bands. Through NBO and HOMO-LUMO analysis, the kinetic stability and chemical reactivity of the IRPG molecule were investigated. By using an MEP map, the IRPG's electrophilic and nucleophilic site selectivity was assessed. In a molecular docking investigation, the IRPG molecule shows a stronger inhibition constant and binding affinity for the H1N1 and H3N2 influenza virus. The IRPG molecule thus reveals good biological actions in nature and can be used as a potential therapeutic drug candidate for H1N1 and H3N2 virus A influenza.
