Resumo: The exaggerated use of anxiolytic drugs can cause environmental problems if there is no destination and treatment, leading to contamination of water resources and biological tissues and aquatic organisms. In addition, some microorganisms develop resistance to these drugs affect the ecosystem with its toxicity and remain in the environment, which justifies the growing concern about these environmental pollutants that were found in various parts of the world. There are some studies in the literature of the use of graphene as a filter for the removal of metals such as Na, Mg, K, Ca and Ni environment. Other studies show that graphene can be used to remove drugs such as aspirin, caffeine, acetaminophen and ciprofloxacin the aqueous media. The objective of this study was to evaluate, through computer simulations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT), the structural and electronic properties of anxiolytic drugs interacting with pure graphene, because until now few methods of treating wastewater for removal anxiolytic drugs are not effective, and in other cases the methods are expensive. In this study, we analyzed the interaction of pure graphene with anxiolytics (alprazolam, clonazepam, clobazam, diazepam and the nordiazepam) commonly found in the environment and highly resistant to photobleaching. The results show that the interaction of graphene with diazepam stabilized with binding energy ranging between -0.29 eV and -0.35 eV and load transfers between -0.002 e- and +0.036 e-. As for the nordiazepam interacting with graphene, the binding energy remained between -0.23 eV and -0.31 eV and cargo transfers between -0.002 e- and +0.069 e-. For alprazolam the binding energy remained between -0.19 eV and -0.86 eV and cargo transfers between -0.004 and +0.041 e-. For clobazam the binding energy varied between -0.23 eV and -0.76 eV and load transfers between -0.005 e- and +0.040 e- and clonazepam remained between -0.52 eV and -0, 75 eV and load transfer between -0.005 e- and +0.070 e-. For every interaction was observed which can occur graphene load transfer to the drug (indicated by positive values) or drug for graphene (indicated by negative values). There was a physical adsorption for all pure graphene interactions with anxiolytic drugs with binding energy ranging between -0.19 eV and -0.86 eV and a charge transfer between -0.018 e- and +0.070 e-, and that the electronic properties of the systems were not changed significantly. The results for the interaction of graphene with anxiolytics, are important to contribute to the development of filters to remove these drugs from aqueous media and sewage treatment plants, since there are no reports in the literature on the interaction of graphene with anxiolytic agents for through computer simulation.
