▎ 摘  要

In this present study, we have theoretically scrutinized the interaction mechanism of Metronidazole drug on the surface of graphene, boron carbide and boron nitride nanosheets in gas and aqueous phase applying density functional theory with B3LYP/6-31G method to sort a path for minimizing the adverse effects of this drug on the human and animal body. The maximum adsorption energy (A.E) value is 44.50 kj/mol which indicates the adsorption of all complexes is physisorption type and our complexes benefit from the short recovery time. Weak electrostatic nature of the interaction is also revealed by the QTAIM study. The reduction of E-g for the adsorption of ML on BN sheet is the highest (up to 55%) indicating the highest sensitivity while the sensitivity trend is s (BN) > sigma (GNS) > sigma (BC3). The UV-Vis spectra investigation also validates this sensitivity trend. The dipole moment and A.E data in case of the solvent effect upon the complexes claim the favourable adsorption process in aqueous medium. Consequently, this comparative study reveals the ability of BN nanosheet to sense ML drug is higher than that of GNS and BC3, which will help to protect human and wildlife from the side effect of this drug.
