Abstract
We are still facing a Covid-19 pandemic these days and after the aggressively infection control measures taken by the governments in the whole world, there is a need of a rapid pharmaceutical solution in order to control this crisis. The computer aided chemistry and molecular docking is a rapid tool for drug screening and investigation. Moreover, more metal-based drugs are tested daily by research institutes for their antiviral activity. Here, we make use of theoretical studies on previously published biological active complex molecules of vanadium as an example of evaluating possible drug candidates before entering the laboratory. We used DFT calculation studies for structural elucidation and optimization of the molecules and molecular docking studies on several Covid-19 related proteins. Our findings suggest that drug discovery should always be computer -aided. Additionally, it is found that Vtocdea and VXn molecules are seem to be good candidates for further studies as antiviral agents.
