X Abstract

Monte Carlo statistical mechanics simulations have been carried out for 150 organic solutes in water. Physically significant descriptors such as the solvent-accessible surface area, numbers of hydrogen bonds, and indices for cohesive interactions in solids are correlated with pharmacologically important properties including octanol/water partition coefficient (log P) and aqueous solubility (log S). The regression equation for log S only requires five descriptors to provide a correlation coefficient, r2, of 0.9 and rms error of 0.7 for the 150 solutes. The descriptors can form a basis for structural modifications to guide an analogue's properties into desired ranges.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
