Well know therapies for the treatment of osteoporosis, syndrome characterized by increased bone fragility and fracture consist primarily of drugs which prevent bone losses, such as bisphosphonates. Among them, alendronate (PO3)-(OH)-C-((CH2)3 NH3)-(PO3) is one of the chosen treatments in the clinic, IC50 = 50 nM. In this work a study of the molecular alendronate and three of its crystals (sodium alendronate trihydrate and anhydrous and calcium alendronate ) is performed in the scope of Density Functional Theory (DFT). In the first case, the focus is the lowest energy conformations of the molecular alendronate in vacuum, in an aqueous medium in accordance with the model of polarization continuum (PCM), and interacting with three molecules of water of a sodium atom based on the characteristics structural relevadas diffraction X-ray crystal alendrontao sodium trihydrate; their vibrational infrared and Raman spectra are calculated to explain in detail the abundant signatures of the phosphate group in the frequency range 400-1400 cm −1 with the assignments of the most important vibrational modes. In the case of crystals, their structural, electronic and optical properties are obtained in the generalized gradient approximation taking into account the description of the term correlation and exchange Tchatschenko (GGA+TS ); Hirshfeld population analysis in which verified is presented alendronate is that the three crystals is in zwitterionic state. From the calculation of the band structure was obtained GAPs with very close values for the three crystals, however, with the density of states and characteristic for each crystal. The effective masses, dielectric function and theoretical optical absorptions for all crystals are presented.
