Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to investigate electronic and structural properties of barbituric acid (BA) and sixtheen of its derivatives to show impacts of structural functionalization on the features of parent BA. The models were optimized and the minimum energy structures were confirmed by frequency calculations. Molecular and atomic descriptors were evaluated for the optimized models, in which the results of formation binding strength and molecular orbital features indicated significance of such functionalization processes on the observed properties. The highest occupied and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) and their related parameters all indicated magnitudes of changes from one molecule to another one. Furthermore, atomic scale quadrupole coupling constants (Cq) were evaluated for the nitrogen and oxygen atoms of BA compounds showing significance of structural functionalization impacts on the atomic properties of parent BA. As a consequence, such structural analyses of BA compounds could show their characteristic features for further developments especially for their efficient pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
In our present work, we emphasized on the potential of barbituric acid (1) derivatives
as drugs like anti-bacterial, hypnotic, sedative, anti-microbial and antifungal
agents. As naturally occurring, barbituric acid (1) is inactive but in the derivative form, it
has a large number of medicinal uses and nowadays, it has a great demand in the pharmaceutical
industry. Barbituric acid has a wide range of applications in the synthesis of a diverse
class of compounds like heterocyclic, carbocyclic, synthetic alkaloids, and due to its
broad-spectrum applications, barbituric acid acquired the position of building blocks in
synthetic chemistry. Through the history of humanity, a number of bioactive agents have
been applied to cure the disease related to hypnotics and sedatives, while the exact efficacy
of these agents was found to be limited. Till now, review articles on barbituric acid
only express their specific aspect but in present review article, all aspects are discussed in detail to provide a
platform to readers and researchers so that they could obtain all information and background knowledge from a
single point.
