Popis: | Quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP level of theory, together with the 6-31G ∗ basis sets, were employed to obtain electronic properties of the dapsone and related derivatives in order to study their methemoglobinemia mechanism. The electronic properties such as HOMO, LUMO, ionization potential, MEPs, and spin densities were correlated to redox properties of the compounds studied. The results show that the amine linked to the aniline moiety at the para-position is the main contributor to methemoglobin property. The sulfone moiety is responsible for the electron transition between both aniline rings. The lowest ionization potential is related with the increase of methemoglobinemia. |
