Summary

Topographic (3D) molecular connectivity indices significantly improve quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models. These 3D indices enhance predictions for partition coefficient (log P) and antibacterial activity in 2-furylethylene derivatives.

Area of Science:

  • Computational chemistry
  • Medicinal chemistry
  • Cheminformatics

Background:

  • Quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) studies utilize molecular descriptors to predict chemical compound properties.
  • Traditional 2D connectivity indices and quantum chemical descriptors have limitations in accurately modeling complex molecular interactions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of topographic (3D) molecular connectivity indices in QSPR and QSAR studies.
  • To compare the predictive performance of 3D connectivity indices against 2D connectivity indices and quantum chemical descriptors.
  • To model the partition coefficient (log P) and antibacterial activity of 2-furylethylene derivatives.

Main Methods:

  • Calculation of topographic (3D) molecular connectivity indices based on quantum chemical parameters.

  • Employing linear discriminant analysis for classification of antibacterial activity.

    • Main Results:

    • 3D connectivity indices demonstrated a significant improvement (over 29%) in predicting log P compared to 2D and quantum chemical descriptors.
    • The best model for classifying antibacterial activity was achieved using 3D connectivity indices, yielding 94.1% accuracy.
    • 3D connectivity indices correctly classified 100% of new 2-furylethylene derivatives for antibacterial activity, outperforming 2D indices and quantum chemical descriptors (88.9%).

    Conclusions:

    • Topographic (3D) molecular connectivity indices offer superior predictive power for QSPR and QSAR compared to traditional methods.
    • The application of 3D connectivity indices is highly effective for modeling log P and antibacterial activity in 2-furylethylene derivatives.
    • This approach enhances the accuracy of predicting biological activity and physicochemical properties of chemical compounds.
