Abstract
Paracetamol is a widely used drug in medical practice. We have studied the quantum-chemical properties of
paracetamol,which are vital for understanding of mechanisms of biological and pharmacological activity at a
molecular level. The geometry optimization for paracetamol molecule was performed by PM3 method, PolakRibiere algorithm. We have determined the distance between atoms, total charge density, characteristics of
molecular orbitals (HOMO, LUMO) of paracetamol molecule.
