Abstract
Environmental partitioning influences fate, exposure and ecological risks of chemicals. Linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) models may serve as efficient tools for estimating environmental partitioning parameter values that are commonly deficient for many chemicals. Nonetheless, scarcities of empirical solute parameter values of LSER models restricted the application. This study developed and evaluated in silico methods and models to derive the values, in which excess molar refraction, molar volume and logarithm of hexadecane/air partition coefficient were computed from density functional theory; dipolarity/polarizability parameter, solute H-bond acidity and basicity parameters were predicted by quantitative structure-activity relationship models developed with theoretical molecular descriptors. New LSER models on four physicochemical properties relevant with environmental partitioning (n-octanol/water partition coefficients, n-octanol/air partition coefficients, water solubilities, sub-cooled liquid vapour pressures) were constructed using the in silico solute parameter values, which exhibited comparable performance with conventional LSER models using the empirical solute parameter values. The package models for deriving the LSER solute parameter values, with advantages that they are free of instrumental determinations, may lay the foundation for high-throughput estimating environmental partition parameter values of diverse organic chemicals.
期刊介绍:
SAR and QSAR in Environmental Research is an international journal welcoming papers on the fundamental and practical aspects of the structure-activity and structure-property relationships in the fields of environmental science, agrochemistry, toxicology, pharmacology and applied chemistry. A unique aspect of the journal is the focus on emerging techniques for the building of SAR and QSAR models in these widely varying fields. The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, the topics of topological and physicochemical descriptors, mathematical, statistical and graphical methods for data analysis, computer methods and programs, original applications and comparative studies. In addition to primary scientific papers, the journal contains reviews of books and software and news of conferences. Special issues on topics of current and widespread interest to the SAR and QSAR community will be published from time to time.
