Abstract
This study investigates the development of quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models for predicting micelle-water partition coefficients based on 2D molecular representations that does not require conformational sampling or 3D geometry optimization. The Monte Carlo (MC) optimization method was employed to construct these models, utilizing a combination of SMILES notation descriptors and local molecular graph invariants. The MC method served as the model developer for both training and test sets, analyzing three independent splits of 291 organic compounds with experimentally determined micelle-water partition coefficients obtained from sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solutions. The developed QSPR models were rigorously validated using a battery of statistical parameters, demonstrating excellent predictive ability and robustness. Additionally, the study identified key molecular fragments derived from the SMILES notation descriptors that influence the micelle-water partition coefficient (increase or decrease). Overall, this work underscores the efficacy of the MC optimization method in constructing QSPR models with strong predictive power for micelle-water partition coefficients. These models have the potential to streamline drug discovery by facilitating the identification of drug candidates with targeted micelle-water partitioning behavior.
期刊介绍:
Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high-quality papers dealing with experimental, theoretical, and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluids, solids, and interfaces. Subjects of interest include physical/phase and chemical equilibria; equilibrium and nonequilibrium thermophysical properties; fundamental thermodynamic relations; and stability. The systems central to the journal include pure substances and mixtures of organic and inorganic materials, including polymers, biochemicals, and surfactants with sufficient characterization of composition and purity for the results to be reproduced. Alloys are of interest only when thermodynamic studies are included, purely material studies will not be considered. In all cases, authors are expected to provide physical or chemical interpretations of the results.
Experimental research can include measurements under all conditions of temperature, pressure, and composition, including critical and supercritical. Measurements are to be associated with systems and conditions of fundamental or applied interest, and may not be only a collection of routine data, such as physical property or solubility measurements at limited pressures and temperatures close to ambient, or surfactant studies focussed strictly on micellisation or micelle structure. Papers reporting common data must be accompanied by new physical insights and/or contemporary or new theory or techniques.
