The investigation of 1,2,4-triazole-chalcone has sparked immense interest due to their promising biological activities. These compounds, labeled 10C-10S, were synthesized and characterized by Jinjing et al., specifically focusing on their potential applications in biological settings, particularly their antiproliferative properties. Strategic exploration by computational chemistry techniques such as DFT calculations, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics with empirical findings proved pivotal in unraveling the multifaceted properties of these organic molecules. Additionally, molecular docking studies were conducted to elucidate the antiproliferative effects and analyze the potential binding modes of the compounds with specific amino acid residues in proteins. Rigorous comparisons between theoretical and experimental results yielded comprehensive insights into the properties of these compounds. We chose two molecules, C (the most active) and E (the least active), which have affinities of -7.689 and -7.526 kcal/mol, respectively, to test how stable they are with the EGFR receptor (PDB entry code: 6Z4B). Molecular dynamics simulations over 100 ns revealed more stable energies, with ΔG_Bind = -25.135 Kcal/mol and ΔG_Bind_vdW = -30.644 Kcal/mol.
