Abstract

The eigenvalues are significant in mathematics, but they are also relevant in other domains like as chemistry, economics, and a variety of others. In terms of our research, eigenvalues are used in chemistry to represent not only the form of energy but also the various physicochemical aspects of a chemical substance. We must comprehend the connection between mathematics and chemistry. The antibonding level is related to positive eigenvalues, the bonding level is associated to negative eigenvalues, and the nonbonding level is linked to zero eigenvalues. In this work, we studied some anticancer drug structures in terms of nullity, matching number, eigenvalues of adjacency matrix, and characteristics polynomials. As a result, Carmustine, Caulibugulone-E, Aspidostomide-E anticancer drug structures are stable, closed-shell molecules since their nullity is equal to zero.
