The comprehensive in silico study aims to figure out the most effective aromatic phytochemical ligands among a number from a library, considering their pharmacokinetic efficacies in blocking "angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) S protein" complex formation as part of a target-specific drug designing.
