To this end, Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) level of theory were carried out on flutriafol, a broad-spectrum fungicide, and its trifluorinated analogue. The reflections of OH/F isosteric replacement on frontier molecular orbital energies, reactivity behaviors, electrostatic surface properties, and intramolecular interactions were investigated. Also, one of the important consequences of isosteric and bioisosteric replacements is the modification in lipophilic character, which is a remarkable parameter in many respects. Therefore, lipophilic character evaluations were performed for mentioned molecules using SwissADME and Molinspiration software.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle131243610.54370/ordubtd.12102851184324
