Abstract Regardless of the benefits, pharmaceutical companies are reticent to engage further in covalent organic framework‐based drug development and delivery systems, preferring rather explore preexisting chemical compound libraries for delivery. As such, this study aims account efficacy frameworks (COFs) seven conventional drugs: Acetaminophen, Clodronic Acid, Hydroxyurea, Mercaptoporine, Thiotepa, Tioguanine, Arsenic trioxide. Herein, Gaussian 16 software package is employed purpose optimizing systems at DFT/ωB97XD/def2svp level theory. Substantially, nature inter‐ intra‐ molecular interactions between COF each drugs utilized resulted re‐adjustment orbitals yielded a distinct set results most reactive least stable vice versa as deducible from magnitudes highest occupied orbital lowest unoccupied (HOMO‐LUMO) gaps. Furthermore, natural bond (NBO) indicates that interacting molecules exhibit similar stability reactivity, evidenced by proximity their mean stabilization energies. Additionally, topological analysis revealed positive interaction occurred Acetaminophen_COF, acid_COF, Hydroxyurea_COF, Tioguanine_COF.
