The structure was further confirmed by theoretical studies using the DFT/B3LYP method with LanL2Z basis set. The experimental results agree well with the findings of theoretical studies. The chemical reactivity and kinetic stability of molecular compounds are determined using the molecular frontier orbitals, HOMO and LUMO. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to measure different interactions, revealing that the main contributions to the crystal packing come from the interactions O ...H/H ...O (42%), C ...H/H ...C (9.5%), H ...H (8.9%), S ...H/H ...S (7.9%) and N ...H/H ...N (6.3%). Furthermore, molecular docking was used to investigate the binding interactions between MCL1 and NNPEI to choose possible conformation.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessThiophene derivativeDFTSingle-crystal structureHirshfeld surface analysisMolecular dockingSynthesis, structural studies, Hirshfeld surface analysis, and molecular docking studies of a thiophene-based Schiff base compoundArticle126510.1016/j.molstruc.2022.1334772-s2.0-85131827913Q1WOS:000814563400009Q2
