Density Functional Theory Study of Henry's Law Constant on the Benzimidazole derivatives
Abstract
Benzimidazoles are veterinary drugs widely used for prevention and treatment of parasitic infections in agriculture and aquaculture. The benzimidazoles are a large chemical family used as antimicrobial agents against the wide spectrum of microorganisms [1-10]. In this study Henry’s law constants at T = 293.2K are calculated for some Benzimidazole and derivatives drugs in water by density functional theory (DFT) methods at B3LYP (6-31+G**) levels of theory using the Poisson-Boltzmann solvation model.
