海报摘要

This work is focused on the study of internal magnetic interactions in the peroxynitrite molecule. Peroxynitrite is a molecule that belongs to the reactive oxygen species, an excessive amount of which in a cell can lead to pathologies. The study of the chemical behavior of the ground state of the molecule is important because of the development of new methods of treating diseases caused by ROS. In order to investigate the internal magnetic interactions, we employed the Td-DFT and CASSCF quantum calculation methods in Orca 5.0.4. The results of the study indicate the presence of a possible T1-So transition, which suggests that the rate of peroxynitrite formation in living organisms is significantly higher than previously thought. This a priori view opens up new possibilities for the finding of treatments for diseases caused by excessive peroxynitrite and explains the strong pathological effects of ROS in their excessive content.
