The electronic sensitivity and reactivity of a B-36 borophene are scrutinized toward the metronidazole (ML) drug using density functional theory calculations. The drug is mainly adsorbed via its -NO2 group on the edge of the B-36 borophene. In the gas phase, the adsorption energy and Gibbs free energy change are about -22.1 and -19.3 kcal/mol, respectively. Because of a large HOMO destabilization upon the ML adsorption, the HOMO-LUMO gap (E-g) of B-36 meaningfully decreases from 1.84 to 0.75 eV. It increases the electrical conductivity which creates an electrical signal. The signal is connected to the ML presence, indicating that the borophene may be a proper sensor for the ML detection. A short recovery time of 1.53 s is estimated for the ML desorption from the B-36 surface. Unlike the E-g, the Fermi level and work function of B-36 are not altered sensibly by the ML drug adsorption. The interaction of ML with the B-36 sheet weakens in the water solvent. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
