Abstract

The present study is an attempt to provide an insight into the stability, in terms of interaction energy and thermodynamic parameter, and reactivity, quantified by reactivity descriptors, of the chitosan-MX and its analogous (EMX and ZMX) system. In this system a component is, MX (3-chloro-4-(dichloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone) a mutagenic halogenated disinfection by products which present in drinking water. And, chitosan is an eco-friendly nano-adsorbent to remove oils, grease, heavy metals and the fine particulate matter from water solution. Electronic and structural properties of chitosan during functionalization by metal were studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Isolated and functionalized chitosan were optimized and their properties were evaluated. The results indicated that the properties of linking sites detect the most significant effects of functionalization process.
