Quantum chemical investigations of charge-transfer interactions in relation to the electronic theory of cancer.

The results of ab initio 'supermolecule' calculations of the charge transfer between formamide and methylglyoxal, dimethylglyoxal and ethylglyoxal are compared for several different relative conformations of the constituent molecules. The extent and sign of the charge transfer is similar for all three molecules; the ketoaldehyde acts as an electron acceptor only for the stacked conformation. Similar calculations on alpha-hydroxytetronic acid as a model for ascorbic acid show that it can act as either an acceptor from formamide or a donor to glyoxal.
