Abstract: It has been found that the 7-chloro-4-quinolinol N-oxide is an anticancer drug, while 7-chloro-4-quinolinol is not anticancerous. In order to understand the difference between their electronic structures, we have performed M1NDO/3 optimization and INDO/1+Cl calculations. It was found that the theoretical results are highly consistent with the experimental data. Especially, the transition mechanism of electronic spectra was revealed.
