Abstract
The potential and selective inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) are therapeutically useful in treating type 2 diabetes. N-Benzoyl-L-glutamyl-[4-phosphono(difluoromethyl)]-L-phenylalanine-[4-phosphono(difluoro-methyl)]-L-phenylalanineamide (BzN-EJJ-amide) (BGD) which is the ligand of 1LQF protein code extracted from protein data bank (PDB) is an inhibitor of PTP-1B that indicates selectivity over several protein tyrosine phosphatases. In this research, the interaction between the anti-diabetic drug of BzN-EJJ-amide and armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) has been investigated based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) theory to design, improve and expand carbon nanotube drug carriers as the applied sensors in drug delivery systems. Therefore, physico-chemical properties of optimized geometry, quantum molecular descriptors, topological parameters, and frontier molecular orbitals of different drug arrangements on CNT at the highest equilibrium at CAM-B3LYP/6-311+G (2d,p) level of theory have been explored. The results of Nuclear Magnetic resonance (NMR), Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), Infrared (IR), and charge distributions have indicated that BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT complex presents the position of active sites of labeled N, O, P, and F atoms in this linkage, which transfer the charge of electrons in polar bisphosphonate agent of BzN-EJJ-amide toward (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor. Evaluation of the results obtained from the electrostatic potential (ESP) map, Frontier orbitals of HOMO, LUMO, and UV-VIS spectroscopy analysis have exhibited that the direction of electron movement is generally from drug molecule to carbon nanotube as the sensor for BzN-EJJ-amide anti-diabetes drug.

1. Introduction
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is an advanced illness described by deficiencies in insulin secretion and augmented insulin persistence directed to abnormal glucose metabolism and relevant metabolic disorders. Although the aetiologies of type 1 and type 2 diabetes vary enormously, both indicate hyperglycaemic states, and both exhibit common macrovascular such as cerebrovascular, coronary heart, and peripheral vascular disease and microvascular complications like neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy [1,2,3,4,5].
Phosphoeleganin is applied to stop both enzymes, acting respectively as a pure non-competitive inhibitor of PTP1B and a mixed-type inhibitor of AR. Furthermore, in silico docking analyses, the interaction mode of phosphoeleganin with both enzymes was estimated. The inhibitory mechanism of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and aldose reductase (AR) enzymes containing analysis of the insulin signaling pathway of phosphoeleganin was investigated [6].
Inhibitors of PTP-1B can be effective in the remedy of type 2 diabetes disease. Considering the large number of phosphatases in the cell, inhibitors against PTP-1B should be selective and potent. Some research has investigated the crystal compounds of PTP-1B in complex with BzN-EJJ-amide at 2.5 A resolution. The results exhibited a high inhibitory ability through interactions of several of its chemical groups with particular protein residues. An interaction between BzN-EJJ-amide and Asp48 is of particular significance, as the substitution of Asp48 to alanine resulted in a 100-fold loss in potency (Scheme 1) [7].

The structure of PTP-1B in a complex with a peptide inhibitor reveals an alternative binding mode for bisphosphonates. The crystal structure also revealed an unexpected binding orientation for a bisphosphonate inhibitor on PTP-1B, where the second difluorophosphonomethyl phenylalanine moiety is linked to near Arg47 rather than in the formerly distinguished second aryl phosphate site indicated by Arg24 and Arg254. The data recommends that potent and selective PTP-1B inhibitors may be designed by targeting the region containing Arg47 and Asp48f (Scheme 1) [8,9].
Nanomedication contains a broad range of therapeutic usages, from nanoparticle drug delivery systems consisting of carbon nanotubes or layered double hydroxides as biosensors and imaging and implantable devices diagnostics [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]. Carbon nanotubes are considerable in the nanomedication industry because of their unique attributes, such as thermal, mechanical, electromagnetical, and other physical and chemical properties [19,20,21]. CNTs represent their ability to carry over remedial agents consisting of medications, macromolecules of proteins, or antibodies through attaching and releasing the drug in the body cell [22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29]. Single-walled carbon nanotubes are produced by wrapping a single layer of graphite cylinder; multi-walled carbon nanotubes are multiple concentric cylindrical shells of graphite layers [30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41].
The structures of Non-N-containing bisphosphonates such as etidronate, tiludronate, and clodronate are studied as the first generation of bisphosphonates that are plain molecules consisting of single atoms or alkyl groups in side chains of R1 and R2 side chains having a weak inhibition effect on bone resorption [42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50]. These days, the third generation of bisphosphonates containing N-heterocyclic bisphosphonates, such as zoledronate and risedronate, have illustrated the most potent antiresorptive specifications [51,52,53,54,55,56]. In this research, the interaction between the anti-diabetic drug of BzN-EJJ-amide and SWCNT has been investigated based on the DFT method to evaluate the potential of SWCNT as the sensitive sensors in drug delivery systems through physicochemical analysis.
2. Materials and Methods
In this research, it has been described the electronic structure of adsorbed (5, 5) armchair SWCNT by bisphosphonate agent of BzN-EJJ-amide extracted from protein 1LQF for measuring physicochemical properties (Scheme 2).

The approximations of Hohenberg, Kohn, and Sham use the density functional theory (DFT) for exploring the specification of materials [57] and for foretelling chemical systems and perceiving their similarities and differences compared to other computational approaches [58,59,60]. Then, a new hybrid exchange-correlation functional named CAM–B3LYP is proposed. It combines the hybrid qualities of B3LYP and the long-range correction. We demonstrate that CAM–B3LYP yields atomization energies of similar quality to those from B3LYP while also performing well for charge transfer excitations in our model, which B3LYP underestimates enormously [58,59,60].
The Onsager model was employed in this research, accompanying the solvent dielectric effect. A cavity generates this model to keep out the solvent and contain frontiers as part of the solute charge distribution [61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68].
The NQR is a straight frame of the interaction of the quadrupole moment with the local electric field gradient (EFG) generated by its ambiance's electronic structure:
\[ V(r)=V(0)+\left[\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial x_i}\right)\bigg|_0.x_i\right)\bigg]+\frac{1}{2}\left[\left(\frac{\partial^2V}{\partial x_ix_j}\right)\bigg|_0.x_ix_j\right)\bigg]+\cdots \tag{1} \]
After simplification of the equation, there are only the second derivatives related to the same variable for the potential energy [69,70]:
\[ \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} U=-\frac{1}{2}\int_{D}d^3r\rho_{r}&\left[\left(\frac{\partial^{2}V}{\partial x_{i}^{2}}\right)\bigg|_0.x_{i}^2\right)\bigg]=-\frac{1}{2}\int_{D}d^3r\rho_{r}\left[\left(\frac{\partial E_{i}}{\partial x_{i}}\right)\bigg|_0.x_{i}^2\right)\bigg]=\\ &-\frac{1}{2}\Big(\frac{\partial E_{i}}{\partial x_{i}}\Big)\Big|_0.\int_{D}d^3r[\rho(r).x_{i}^2] \end{aligned} \end{equation} \tag{2} \]
Two parameters must be obtained from NQR experiments; the quadrupole coupling constant, χ, and asymmetry parameter of the EFG tensor η:
\[ \chi=\left.e^2Qq_{zz}\right/_h \tag{3} \]
\[ \eta=q_{xx}-q_{yy}/q_{zz} \tag{4} \]
where qii are components of the EFG tensor at the quadrupole nucleus determined in the EFG principal axes system, Q is the nuclear quadrupole moment, e is the proton charge, and h is the Planck's constant [71]. The graph of NQR characteristics for BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT complex has the most fluctuation in the region of two phosphorus of PO3 groups (Scheme 2).
The electric potential (J·C−1) is a continuous function in space produced by an idealized point charge that has 1⁄r potential: $V_{E}=\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\frac{Q}{r}$, where $Q$ (measured in coulombs) is the point charge, $r$ is the distance from the charge and $\varepsilon_{0}$ is the permittivity of a vacuum. Since the electric potential for a system of point charges is equal to the sum of the point charges' potentials, the calculations are done based on the summation of potential fields, which is scalar instead of the summation of the electric fields, which is vector and much more difficult than potential field. So, $V_{E}(r)=\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\sum_{i}\frac{q_{i}}{|r-r_{i}|}$, where $r$ is the point at which the potential is measured, $r_{i}$ is a point at which the charge is ≠0, and $q_{i}$ is the charge at the point $r_{i}$. Finally, the potential of a continuous charge distribution $\rho(r)$ appears: $V_{E}(r)=\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}\int_{R}\frac{\rho(r^{\prime})}{|r-r\prime|}d^{3}r^{\prime}$, where $R$ is a region including all the points at which the charge density is ≠0, $r^{\prime}$ is a point inside $R$, and $\rho(r^\prime)$ is the charge density at the point $r^{\prime}$ [72]. The ESP $\varphi(r)$ at position $r$ due to a charge $Q_{j}$ at position $r_{j}$ is explained as:
\[ \varphi(r)=\frac{Q_j}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0|r-r_j|}} \tag{5} \]
where $\varepsilon_{0}$ is the permittivity of free space. A charge density $\rho_{tot}(r)$ is illustrated in units of elementary charge per volume as the difference between proton and electron densities [73].
The ESP can also be expressed as an inverse Fourier transform involving the structure factors of the total charge density:
\[ \varphi_{stat}(r)=\frac1{\pi V_{UC}}\left[\varphi_0+\sum_H^{|H|_{max}}\frac{F_{tot}(H)}{|H|^2}\mathrm{exp}(-2\pi iH.r)\right] \tag{6} \]
The total charge density of a periodic structure can then be expressed as the inverse Fourier transform of its structure factors, where the latter are defined on the nodes $H$ of the reciprocal lattice and $V_{UC}$ is the volume of the unit cell, and the term $H=0$ is excluded from the summation. The macroscopic contribution $\varphi_{0}$ to the ESP is [74]:
\[ \varphi_0=-\frac{2\pi}3\sum\nolimits_{\alpha=1}^3\sum\nolimits_{\beta=1}^3g_{\alpha\beta}Q_{\alpha\beta} \tag{7} \]
$g_{\alpha\beta}$ being the metric tensor and $Q_{\alpha\beta}$ The quadrupolar tensor obtained by the summation rules [74].
Owing to the additional factor of $\frac1{|H|^2}$, ESP is expected to have a more rapid convergence. This observation directs us to the hypothesis that equation (6) for $\varphi_{stat}(r)$ will change quickly if $F_{tot}(H)$ is substituted by the structure factor of the dynamic charge density.
\[ F_{tot}^{dyn}(H)=\sum_{j=1}^{N_{vc}}[Z_j-f_j(H)]T^j(H)\mathrm{exp}(2\pi iH.r_j) \tag{8} \]
where $T^{j}(H)$ is the Debye–Waller factor of atom j. Therefore, it shows the logical choice for dynamic ESPs based on structure models [74].
3. Results and Discussion
3.1 Charge Distribution & NMR Analysis
The NMR data of isotropic (σiso) and anisotropic shielding tensor (σaniso) for BzN-EJJ-amide adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT has been estimated (Table 1). The calculations were accomplished based on CAM-B3LYP/6-311+G (2d,p) level of theory using the Gaussian 16 revision C.01 program [75] and are reported in Table 1.
Table 1 SCF GIAO magnetic shielding tensor for BzN-EJJ-amide.
In the aqueous medium, the agent of BzN-EJJ-amide attached to (5, 5) armchair SWCNT has exhibited the fluctuation manner for various atoms of nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen, and fluorine in the active zones of this compound through the NMR chemical shielding tensor (Figure 1).
Figure 1 The chemical shielding of 13C-NMR: isotropic (σiso) and anisotropic (σaniso) calculated for BzN-EJJ-amide using SCF GIAO method due to CAM-B3LYP method.
The chemical shielding tensors have been resulted by the theoretical computations in the principal axes system to guess the isotropic chemical-shielding (CSI), (σ33 + σ22 + σ11)/3, and anisotropic chemical-shielding (CSA), σ33 - (σ22 + σ11)/2 [75]. Furthermore, the Onsager model has been used to calculate NMR parameters and chemical shielding of H, C, N, O, P, and F elements in BzN-EJJ-amide (Figure 2).
Figure 2 1H-NMR shielding of BzN-EJJ-amide adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT using SCF GIAO method due to B3LYP function and 6-311+G (2d, p) basis set basis set.
In fact, BzN-EJJ-amide has shown NMR shielding between 10-600 ppm with a sharp peak of 25 ppm and several weak peaks between 100-450 ppm (Figure 2). The hydrogens involved in the O-H of PO3 groups have been exhibited in the high degeneracy of NMR chemical shielding tensors (Figure 2).
In the next step, the atomic charge of functionalized atoms of N, P, O, and F in the attachment of BzN-EJJ-amide with (5, 5) armchair SWCNT was evaluated (Table 1).
The results of Table 1 in a polar area have indicated the potency of BzN-EJJ-amide as an anti-diabetic drug modeled using the drug delivery method. The most significant fluctuation in atomic charge has been seen for the oxygen atoms in O-H of PO3 groups as the electronegative atoms in the formation of the potent chelation with (5, 5) armchair carbon nanotube using the drug delivery approach, which has recommended the modelling of BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT (Figure 3).
Figure 3 Changes of atomic charge for some electronegative atoms of N, P, O, and F in the active sites of BzN-EJJ-amide in the junction with (5, 5) armchair SWCNT.
This research recommends that the solid-state structure of the CNT in drug delivery can influence its properties, manufacturability, and stability. It is essential to regulate and control solid-state structure and subsequent properties. This work shows that NMR is closely related to the widely used technique of solution-state NMR and possesses many of the same features. Further, the study concludes that the pharmaceutical NMR field continues to develop quickly and will improve new molecular structures in delivery approaches.
Figure 3 shows the position of specific N, P, O, and F atoms in the active site of BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT complex through the transferring charge of electrons from BzN-EJJ-amide towards (5, 5) SWCNT. The spin density and partial charges have been gained by matching the electrostatic potential to fix the charge of N, P, O, and F atoms with high electronegativity in the attachment of the electrophilic group of C in the structure of (5, 5) SWCNT sensor leads us toward the industry of drug delivery. The surface charge indicates possible electrostatic interactions between the CNT nanocarrier units, affects their aggregation tendencies, and helps select the proper drugs. It can be determined by applying an electrical current through the important labels of C30, F31, F32, P33, O34, O35, and O36 in the active site of CNT.
3.2 NQR Analysis
The electric potential of nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) (Table 1) was reported for the BP agent of BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT complex using CAM-B3LYP/EPR-III, 6-311+G (2d,p) basis sets (Figure 4).
Figure 4 Alteration of the electric potential versus atom type through NQR calculation for BP agent of BzN-EJJ-amide in the water medium attached to the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor.
The NQR method shortens detection times, eliminates spurious signals, and enhances the sensitivity of detection of 14N frequencies through important labels of C30, F31, F32, P33, O34, O35, and O36 (Figure 4) with a sharp peak fluctuation around -53.14 a.u. of electric potential for P33 label.
3.3 Analysis of NBO
The Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis of BzN-EJJ-amide as an anti-diabetes has demonstrated the character of electronic conjugation between bonds in the inhibitor and (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor (Table 2 & Figure 5).

The fluctuation of occupancy of natural bond orbitals for BzN-EJJ-amide inhibitor adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT has been shown through bond orbitals containing P-O, O-H, C-F, C-N, C-O toward the Langmuir adsorption process by indicating the charge density from a heterocyclic compound of bisphosphonate agent close to the nanotube (Figure 5).
3.4 Electrostatic Potential (ESP) Map
Understanding the chemical reactivity and the atomic structure of molecules and solids needs the electrostatic potential (ESP), which represents some parameters such as A variety of properties, atomic and anionic radii, electronegativity, and energies [76].
The ESP is applied to explore electrophilic and nucleophilic sides, characterize hydrogen bonds, and analyze intermolecular interactions for single molecules or finite clusters of atoms (Figure 6) [77,78,79].

3.5 IR Spectroscopy
Based on Figure 7, the IR spectrum analysis, the authors have concluded that this protective film consisted of an [BzN-EJJ-amide → SWCNT] complex.
Figure 7 Diagram of IR spectra for BzN-EJJ-amid attached to the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT using CAM-B3LYP/6-311+G (2d,p) calculations.
The maximum IR spectrum has been seen in the frequency range between 250 cm-1-4500 cm-1 by the most substantial peaks about 4100 cm-1, 2250 cm-1, 1750 cm-1, 1550 cm-1, 1250 cm-1, and 900 cm-1, respectively, for [BzN-EJJ-amide → SWCNT] (Figure 7).
3.6 Frontier Orbitals of HOMO & LUMO & UV-VIS Spectroscopy
The highest occupied molecular orbital energy (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (LUMO) have been calculated for the BP agent of BzN-EJJ-amide adsorbed onto (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor [80,81,82,83].
The HOMO, LUMO, and band energy gap (eV) have exhibited the pictorial description of the frontier molecular orbital’s that is a significant key for knowing the molecular specifications of the drug delivery approach through attaching the BP agent of BzN-EJJ-amide which has been surrounded by H2O molecules on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT in aqueous medium (Scheme 3).

The parameters in Table 3 exhibit good stability of the BP agent through Langmuir adsorption on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor. In this verdict, TD-DFT/6-311+G (2d,p) computations have been done to identify the low-lying excited states of BzN-EJJ-amide adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT. The results consist of the vertical excitation energies, oscillator strength and wavelength which have been introduced in Figure 8.

Figure 8 BzN-EJJ-amide is adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT.
Based on the computed amounts of UV-VIS spectrum for BzN-EJJ-amide adsorbed on the (5, 5) armchair SWCNT, there are maximum adsorption bands between 200 nm-275 nm, and maximum adsorption band has observed around 225 nm, 300 nm, and 240 nm, respectively (Figure 8). Using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIMs) method, intermolecular interactions and corresponding parameters at critical bonding points were also investigated [84,85].
4. Conclusions
According to this research, the outlook of NMR spectroscopy has indicated the position of active sites of labeled N, P, O, and F in the anti-diabetic drug of BzN-EJJ-amide attached to (5, 5) armchair SWCNT sensor, which transfers the electron density in polar bisphosphonate in the water medium toward (5, 5) armchair carbon nanotube. Moreover, NQR characteristics for BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT complex have represented the most fluctuation in the zone of two phosphorus of PO3 groups. The maximum IR spectrum for BzN-EJJ-amide → (5, 5) armchair SWCNT has been seen in the frequency range between 250 cm-1-4500 cm-1 by the most substantial peaks about 4100 cm-1, 2250 cm-1, 1750 cm-1, 1550 cm-1, 1250 cm-1, and 900 cm-1, respectively. Furthermore, the energy gap has indicated the energy difference between frontier HOMO and LUMO orbital, introducing the stability for BzN-EJJ-amide and discovering the chemical potential of BzN-EJJ-amide drug for treatment type 2 diabetes.
