Metrizoic acid is a molecule used as meglumine metrizoate, sodium metrizoate contrast agent. 6
Isopak 44o* is a contrast medium containing a mixture of sodium, calcium, magnesium and N-
methylglucamine salts of metrizoic acid. In order to determine the reactivity properties of metrizoic
acid, melagnomie, anionic form of metrizoate, Metrisoate K, metrizoate-melagnomie salt , Na-
metrizoate, DFT calculations were made at the level of B3LYP/LANL2DZ with the help of
Gaussian 09 software. Some global chemical reactivity descriptors such as highest occupied
molecular orbital energy, lowest empty molecular orbital energy, absolute hardness, chemical
potential, softness, electronegativity, chemical potential, global electrophilicity and electrofugality
were calculated. Also, nonlinear optical properties of the title compound were calculated too. In
addition, thermodynamic properties of the molecules examined at different temperatures were
calculated in two phases. The findings of this study, obtained from extensive and time-consuming
calculations and analyzes, will be an important source of information for the preparation of the drug
combination in the future.
