QSPR study on refractive indices of solvents commonly used in polymer chemistry using flexible molecular descriptors

Abstract: A predictive Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) for the refractive indices of 370 solvents commonly used in the processing and analysis of polymers is presented, using as chemical information descriptors the simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES). The model employs a flexible molecular descriptor and a conformation-independent approach. Various well-known techniques, such as the use of an external test set of compounds, the cross-validation method, and Y-randomization were used … Show more

“…Despite the much larger number of descriptors than for Katritzky's QSPR model, the improvement in fit was rather small, especially since the Katristky 125-liquid dataset contained more complex molecules, e.g., with multiple cycles. Several other QSPR models based on molecular descriptors, limited to sets of a few hundred compounds, have been proposed for refractive index prediction [13][14][15][16][17]. For datasets that are not only hydrocarbons, the best results were obtained with a model based on associative neural networks.…”

“…20 Rigorous validation and a well-defined applicability domain are the critical components for the future success of a QSPR/QSAR model, regardless of model structure or fitting technique. 21,22 QSPR/QSAR modelling plays a significant role in predicting various physicochemical properties 23 that is evident from the numerous reports available in the literature such as pK a , 24 aqueous solubility, 25 melting point, 26,27 flammability limit, 28 soil sorption coefficient, 29 refractive indices, 30,31 adsorption coefficient, 32 octanol-air partition coefficients, 33 Henry's law constant, 34 dielectric constant, 35 critical temperature, decomposition temperature, 36,37 thermal conductivity, 38 viscosity, enthalpy of vaporisation, 39 Gibbs free energy of solvation 40 and sublimation, 41 enthalpy of formation, 42 heat capacity (C) at variable temperatures 43 and many others. Gibb's free energy of activation (DG ‡ ) is an important physicochemical property for dynamic systems and QSPR/QSAR provides an accurate, robust and reliable mathematical equation to predict its values.…”
