Abstract:

Based on the bioactivity valence δiA for bonding atom i , a novel molecular connectivity index n V considering the bioactivity of aromatic compounds is proposed. The quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) between the acute toxicities of aromatic compounds and the parameters including 0V, 1 V, octanoVwater partition coefficient lgKow and the indicator variable I are then investigated , It is found that the correlation coefficients for Photobαcterium phosphoreum , Daphnia magna straus and Pimephαles promelαs are respectively 0.9661 , 0.9812 and O. 9677 , and that the estimated results are all better than the results in the literatures. Furthermore , the acute toxicities of other 4 substituted aromatic compounds are predicted , and optimal results are obtained. It is thus concluded that the proposed QSAR model is of good stability and predictability.
