The hybrid correlation method is used to examine the spectra of 5-hydroxy-2-nitrobenzaldehyde (5H2NB) in the FT-IR, FT-Raman, UV, and NMR ranges.For the best mol. shape, vibrational wavenumbers, IR intensities, and Raman activity using d. functional theory, B3LYP and the 6-311++G(2d,p) basis set were used.The MOLVIB software was tasked with providing an in-depth interpretation of the vibrational spectra.Intermol. charge transfer is a result of bonding orbitals participating as donors and acceptors in all phases of NBO anal., which stabilizes mols.High gastrointestinal absorption, but no brain-blood barrier penetration or cytochrome P 450 inhibition, was observed despite the expected ADMET characteristics and expected gastrointestinal absorption (1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4/5).Following CFN and EDE, the results of mol. docking showed that 5H2NB had the highest neg. mean binding affinity of -5.818 kcal/mol, followed by CFN and EDE. 5H2NB also had a more significant hydrogen bond with the amino acid residues of selected receptor proteins.As a result, the current compound may be described as a possible analeptic agent.
