An in silico study on inhibitability of Baloxavir marboxil, Baricitinib, Galidesivir, Nitazoxanide, and Oseltamivir against SARS‐CoV‐2

ABSTRACT: Abstract Baloxavir marboxil (D1), Baricitinib (D2), Galidesivir (D3), Nitazoxanide (D4), and Oseltamivir (D5) are well‐known performing broad‐spectrum activity against a variety of viruses, thus holding high potentiality towards SARS‐CoV‐2. Quantum properties were examined using density functional theory (DFT). The inhibitability of the drugs towards Angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and SARS‐CoV‐2 main protease (6LU7) was evaluated by molecular docking simulation, while their bio‐compatibility was justified by physicochemical properties obtained from QSARIS‐based analysis in reference to Lipinski's rule of five. Quantum analysis suggests that the compounds are highly favourable for intermolecular interaction towards protein structures. Given ligand‐ACE2 systems, the inhibitory effect
