The geometrical parameters, vibrational wavenumbers and electronic properties have also been performed. The electronic properties for HOMO-LUMO, UV-Vis and MEP maps were contemplated by IEFPCM model with various solvation impacts which depends on TD-DFT ((M062X for UV and B3LYP for HOMO-LUMO, MEP)/6-311++G(d,p)) strategies. The NLO activity of title compound has been examined by solvation DFT/B3LYP technique with 6-311++G(d,p) premise set. Mean while, lone pair of donor-acceptor interactions and H bond donor/acceptor surface has been obtained by which a charge transfer mechanism can be explained. Molecular docking has been explored to comprehend the coupling transportation of the examined ligand with human folate receptor alpha in complex with folic corrosive protein (4LRH).
