The <i>exo</i>⇔<i>endo</i> isomerization of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde was theoretically studied by density functional theory (DFT) to examine its favored conformers via sp<sup>2</sup>-sp<sup>2</sup> single rotation. Both isomers were docked against 1BNA DNA to elucidate their binding ability, and the DFT-computed structural parameters results were matched with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) crystallographic parameters. XRD analysis showed that the <i>exo</i>-isomer was structurally favored and ...[more]
