Description:
In this paper, a simplified model was set up to give an insight into the properties of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) at molecular level using MMFF94 force field. Based on our model, the interaction energies (@DEs) between monomers and template or its analogues were calculated, and the most possible conformations of template or its analogues interacting with monomers in the molar ratio 1/4 were found. The obtained results using the computational and conformational analysis showed that large @DE meant more activity sites in the cavities in the resultant polymer giving high affinity and good selectivity, leading to a large imprinting factor and when the @DE differences were small, the imprinting factors were mainly determined by the activity sites. These were well consistent with the experimental results, which confirmed the validity of the model and method proposed that were believed to benefit screening molecularly imprinted systems rapidly in an experiment-free way instead of trial-and-error approach. Considering the affinity and selectivity, 2,6-bisacrylamide pyridine was predicted to be the optimal monomer used to prepare paracetamol MIP for application in quantification of drugs from the @DE and possible activity sites.
