  • Model performance was assessed using R-squared and cross-validation metrics.

    • Main Results:

    • A general three-parameter QSPR model achieved R(2) = 0.9020.
    • Incorporating experimental boiling point improved the model, yielding R(2) = 0.9529.
    • Using predicted boiling point also enhanced prediction accuracy (R(2) = 0.9247).

    Conclusions:

    • QSPR models are effective for predicting compound flash points.
    • Boiling point is a valuable descriptor for enhancing flash point prediction accuracy.
    • The developed models can aid in chemical safety assessments and regulatory processes.
