We analyze the ground state pentaquark structures with a single heavy quark (qqqqQ) using various phenomenological models. The recent observations of singly heavy tetraquark structures at LHCb serve as a significant motivation for this investigation. We studied the symmetric 15-plet configuration of SU (3) flavor representation with the spin-parity assignment of 5/2^-, representing the symmetric spin state for the pentaquark systems. We employed an extended Gursey-Radicati mass formula and an effective mass scheme to compute the mass spectra of pentaquark states. Additionally, the methodology of the screened charge scheme is introduced to calculate the magnetic moment assignments, specifically for configurations involving both charm and bottom quarks. We also proposed the potential production modes originating from the weak decay of heavy baryons. We identified the strong decay channels where pentaquark transitions into a light baryon and a heavy meson. Our analysis of mass spectra, magnetic moments, and possible strong decay channels helps us to explore the inner structure of pentaquarks and their underlying quark dynamics. This work not only augments the theoretical frameworks used to describe such systems but is also helpful for future experimental pursuits at facilities like LHCb, fostering further experimental validations and discoveries in heavy quark spectroscopy.
