Correlation between Structure and Normal Boiling Points of Haloalkanes C1-C4 Using Neural Networks

Abstract: By using neural networks, correlations were established between chemical structure and boiling points of chlorofluorocarbons with 1, 1-2, or 1-4 carbon atoms (15, 62, and 276 compounds, respectively) as well as of halomethanes with up to four different halogens (48 compounds). The molecular descriptors included the number of carbon atoms and of each type of halogen atom as well as topological indices. Results were validated by the jackknifing procedure. The correlation coefficients were r = 0.985-0.995. Predi… Show more

“…[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Although the above approach has proved useful in many applications, it has a number of limitations. 11,17,[19][20][21][22] The quantitative relationships between structure and physicochemical properties can be complex and highly nonlinear; thus, determining the optimal analytical form of the QSPR model presents a challenge. Moreover, regression analysis becomes complex and less reliable as the number of descriptors increases.…”

“…8,11,21,22 As a consequence, most recent studies have explored the development of QSPRs for commonly available physicochemical parameters (e.g., boiling point, heat capacity, density, refractive index) for selected organic compound classes for which accurate and rich data sets are available. 8,17,[19][20][21][22] The use of boiling point data to test the applicability of various molecular descriptors has been particularly popular given the availability of data for large sets of organic chemical classes. QSPRs for boiling points have been proposed by a number of investigators based on backpropagation neural networks.…”

“…The volatility of a molecule can be assessed by its boiling point, a property measured only for a small proportion of possible halogenated hydrocarbons. We studied a data set of 543 haloalkanes, whose boiling points were previously predicted by Multi Linear Regression (MLR) [41,42]. This regression required the computation of numerous molecular descriptors, including arithmetic descriptors, topological indices, geometrical indices, and counts of substructures and fragments.…”

“…The subset used in this study (469 chemicals) represents a chemically diverse set with experimental values for P vap ranging from 3 to 10,000 mmHg. 46,47 This set consisted of boiling point data for 276 chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) with carbon skeletons containing one to four atoms. Nine of the compounds included in the studies by Balaban et al were removed as outliers, leaving a total of 267 CFCs.…”
