Neglected tropical diseases cause great concern in developing countries where there are millions of reported infected humans. It is well known that chelating agents inhibit parasite growth by depriving them of iron, an essential nutrient for cell growth and division; therefore, in this work, we use computational methods to explore the Fe3+ chelating abilities of a set of 10 quinoline–hydrazone hybrids (28 substructures in total) whose cytotoxicity, leishmanicidal, and trypanocidal activities are known. We quantify stabilizing effects in the bare molecules as well as in the iron complexes and show how iron complexation reduces the structural space. Most noticeably, we provide evidence to support a direct relationship between biological activity and the Fe3+ chelating ability.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
