Perspective on the Relationship between Melting Points and Chemical Structure

Abstract: The importance of melting points in characterization, in the estimation of other physical properties and toxicity, and in practical applications such as ionic liquids is summarized, as are difficulties in the systematic treatment of melting points in terms of QSPR. Classical correlations of melting points of congeneric and diverse sets are discussed together with group contribution methods, combined approaches, and computer simulations.

“…1, FEL had a sharp endothermic peak at 160°C, and all FEL complexes had lower melting temperatures. According to literatures [19], it was probably due to the different arrangement of molecules in the crystal lattice, and FEL complexes may have lower crystalline lattice energy [20]. Figure 2 showed the pXRD patterns of solid-state forms of FEL and its complexes.…”

“…Not surprisingly, several reports relating to the prediction of melting point from structure have emerged in recent years. 10 , 61-65 We will not review melting point prediction in depth here; instead, we refer the reader to the fairly recent perspective by Katritzky et al 66 More recently, Yalkowsky has derived new parameters for predicting the entropy of melting, which presumably could be used in the GSE to remove the assumption of the applicability of Walden's rule. 63 Bergstrom and coworkers 61 generated a consensus model using 277 diverse drugs for melting point prediction that focuses on descriptors of polarity and molecular fl exibility.…”

“…As noted above, melting point affects solubility, and solubility controls toxicity in that, if a compound is only poorly soluble, its concentration in the aqueous environment may be too low for it to exert a toxic effect. 4,5 Thus, it would be helpful to be able to estimate the melting point of a compound from its chemical structure. 6,7 Prediction methods for melting point, mainly can be categorized as property-property relationship (PPR), group contribution, and quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR).…”
