Modeling CH-pi interactions
PubblicoThe mechanisms by which drugs bind to proteins are of great interest in research today. Among the possible mechanisms, CH-n interactions may be a significant source of stabilization for this binding. The molecular modeling program Jaguar, from Schrodinger, Inc., was explored as a method of modeling CH-n interactions and judged a reasonable tool for studying these interactions. Naphthalene and naphthol molecules were modeled to help describe the magnitude of CH-n bonding energy between benzene and these conjugated aromatic rings.
