A Comparative Study of Topological and Geometrical Parameters in Estimating Normal Boiling Point and Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient

Abstract: We have used topological, topochemical and geometrical parameters in predicting: (a) normal boiling point of a set of 1023 chemicals and (b) lipophilicity (log P, octanol/water) of 219 chemicals. The results show that topological and topochemical variables can explain most of the variance in the data. The addition of geometrical parameters to the models provide marginal improvement in the model's predictive power. Among the three classes of descriptors, the topochemical indices were the most effective in predi… Show more

“…[6][7][8][9] Many studies on the modeling of log K o/w values using topological, topographic, quantum chemical and other descriptors have been reported where log K o/w values have been the response variable to explore suitability of the descriptors/schemes in QSPR studies. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] There are some reports about the applications of MLR [17][18][19][20] and artificial neural network, [21][22][23][24] modeling to predict the n-octanol/water partition coefficient of organic compounds. Some of papers, about application of QSPR techniques in the development of a new and simplified approach to prediction of compounds properties were published.…”

“…[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Although the above approach has proved useful in many applications, it has a number of limitations. 11,17,[19][20][21][22] The quantitative relationships between structure and physicochemical properties can be complex and highly nonlinear; thus, determining the optimal analytical form of the QSPR model presents a challenge. Moreover, regression analysis becomes complex and less reliable as the number of descriptors increases.…”

“…25,26 As the literature reveals, a major challenge in neural network/QSPR development has been to establish a reliable and practical set of molecular descriptors. 8,11,21,22 As a consequence, most recent studies have explored the development of QSPRs for commonly available physicochemical parameters (e.g., boiling point, heat capacity, density, refractive index) for selected organic compound classes for which accurate and rich data sets are available. 8,17,[19][20][21][22] The use of boiling point data to test the applicability of various molecular descriptors has been particularly popular given the availability of data for large sets of organic chemical classes.…”

“…In all cases the fuzzy ARTMAP QSPR displayed lower errors and standard deviation. The performance of the backpropagation QSPR was mixed with lower errors, for the same set of compounds, compared with the QSPRs of Gombar and Enslein (1996) and Basak et al (1996) Better performance of the present back-propagation logK ow QSPR model, compared to QSPRs developed from much larger data set, could also be, in part, due to the more heterogeneous character of these larger data sets.…”

“…18 QSPRs developed for heterogeneous data sets using topological descriptors [30][31][32] have performed with reported errors comparable to those of group contribution methods. 19,20 For example, the so-called VLOGP model 20 that utilizes a set of over 300 electrotopological-state 32 and kappa shape indices as chemical descriptors was developed using a training set of 6675 compounds (-3.56e logK ow e 7.73) and performed with an average error of 0.201 logK ow units. 20 In recent years, improvements in logK ow QSPRs have been proposed through the use of molecular descriptors derived from semiempirical Molecular Orbital theory (quantum mechanics) calculations.…”
