A COMPUTATIONAL STUDY ON CLOBAZAM

Abstract

As a member of the benzodiazepines, Clobazam is used in some neurological disorders in CNS including epilepsy, schizophrenia and anxiety. Even though clobazam has been marked as an anticonvulstant since 1984, it was approved for adjunctive therapy in tonicchlonic, complex partial and myoclonic seizures in 2005 (in Canada) [1]. Recently, computational tools have been used to define some important properties such as pharmacokinetics and ADME properties in early stages of drug design [2]. We have tried to produce electronic and structural descriptions of this molecule by using computational methods because the results will be very useful to understand its mechanism of action. All
molecular orbital calculations have employed Gaussian 09W [3]. Geometry optimization and frequency calculations have been performed with HF and DFT methods and several basis sets, including 6-31g* and 6-311++g**. In addition to estimates based on Koopmans’s theorem, EPT calculations with the P3 and OVGF approximations have been performed to obtain energy gap values and vertical ionization energies. We also have calculated partial atomic charges by the MPA, NPA, CHELPG, and ESP (which are given for only O and Cl atoms at below) methods to show electronic properties.
