The SARS-CoV-2 corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly spread around the world, presenting a serious pandemic danger. The present study seeks to investigate the biological activity of phytocompounds produced from various medicinal plants, notably Barleria prionitis Linn, Bougainvillea (Nyctaginaceae), and Fig (Angeer), against the SARS-COV-2 major protease (Mpro) protein utilizing a molecular docking approach. Since it is necessary for viral transcription and replication, the SARS-COV-2 major protease (Mpro) protein of the corona virus is an alluring therapeutic target for SARS-CoV-2. The protein target and ligands were interacted with using SWISS Dock and Open Babel. The major protease (Mpro) protein's binding energy was lowest with the barlerinoside from the Barleria plant (G = -9.78 kcal/mol. Numerous phytochemicals had low binding energies with the primary protease protein (Mpro), suggesting that they could be more potent against the COVID-19 virus.
