The eccentric connectivity index, which has recently been employed successfully for the development of numerous mathematical models for the prediction of biological activities of diverse nature, has been reformed to overcome its limitations caused by degeneracy and insensitivity towards heteroatoms. The reformed eccentric connectivity index, termed the eccentric connectivity topochemical index, overcomes the limitations of the eccentric connectivity index by exhibiting very low degeneracy and displaying sensitivity to both the presence and relative position of heteroatoms without compromizing the discriminating power of the eccentric connectivity index. The relationship of the eccentric connectivity topochemical index, eccentric connectivity index and Wieners index with regard to the anti-HIV activity of 2, 3-diaryl-1, 3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives was subsequently investigated. The values of the eccentric connectivity topochemical index, the eccentric connectivity index and Wieners index of each of 31 analogues comprizing the data set were computed using in-house computer program. Resultant data was analyzed and suitable models developed after identification of active ranges. Subsequently, each derivative was assigned a biological activity using these models, which was then compared with the reported anti-HIV activity. The accuracy of prediction using these models was found to vary from 81 to 90%. The proposed index offers a vast potential for virtual screening of combinatorial libraries, structure property/activity studies and drug design.Figure Basic structure of 2,3-diaryl-1, 3-thiazoidin-4-ones. 相似文献

An automated docking procedure was used to study binding of a series of δ-selective ligands to three models of the δ-opioid
receptor. These models are thought to represent the three ligand-specific receptor conformations. Docking results are in agreement
with point mutation studies and suggest that different ligands—agonists and antagonists—may bind to the same binding site
under different receptor conformations. Docking to different receptor models (conformations) also suggests that by changing
to a receptor-specific conformation, the receptor may open or close different binding sites to other ligands.

Rotational strengths in the far-UV of TEM-1 β-lactamase have been investigated with two theoretical models based on the matrix
method. The first model excludes, and a second includes, effects of the local electrostatic interactions on the chromophore
energies. Special attention is given to the contributions of the aromatic side-chain chromophores, and the mechanisms of generation
of rotational strengths are analyzed. The sensitivity of the computational models with respect to the structural changes of
the protein are discussed.

In this work, we propose a distance-based atom-type topological index (DAI) for quantitative structure-property/activity relationship (QSPR/QSAR) studies. The newly constructed index, which codes the structural environment of each atom type in a molecule, can be calculated simply. These atom-type topological indices, along with our recently proposed Lu index, were used to construct QSPR/QSAR models for several representative physical properties and biological activities of several data sets of alcohols with a range of non-hydrogen atoms by using multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis. The efficiency of these indices is verified by high quality QSPR models. The results indicate that the combined use of Lu and DAI indices promises to be a useful method for QSPR/QSAR analysis of complex compounds.

A 3D QSAR analysis has been performed on a series of 67 benzodiazepine analogues reported as γ-secretase inhibitors using
molecular field analysis (MFA), with G/PLS to predict steric and electrostatic molecular field interaction for the activity.
The MFA study was carried out using a training set of 54 compounds. The predictive ability of model developed was assessed
using a test set of 13 compounds ( as high as 0.729). The analyzed MFA model has demonstrated a good fit, having r2 value of 0.858 and cross validated coefficient, value as 0.790. The analysis of the best MFA model provided insight into possible modification of the molecules for better
activity.

Comparative quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) analyses of peptide deformylase (PDF) inhibitors were performed
with a series of previously published (British Biotech Pharmaceuticals, Oxford, UK) reverse hydroxamate derivatives having
antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli PDF, using 2D and 3D QSAR methods, comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA), comparative molecular similarity indices
analysis (CoMSIA), and hologram QSAR (HQSAR). Statistically reliable models with good predictive power were generated from
all three methods (CoMFA r
2 = 0.957, q
2 = 0.569; CoMSIA r
2 = 0.924, q
2 = 0.520; HQSAR r
2 = 0.860, q
2 = 0.578). The predictive capability of these models was validated by a set of compounds that were not included in the training
set. The models based on CoMFA and CoMSIA gave satisfactory predictive r
2 values of 0.687 and 0.505, respectively. The model derived from the HQSAR method showed a low predictability of 0.178 for
the test set. In this study, 3D prediction models showed better predictive power than 2D models for the test set. This might
be because 3D information is more important in the case of datasets containing compounds with similar skeletons. Superimposition
of CoMFA contour maps in the active site of the PDF crystal structure showed a meaningful correlation between receptor–ligand
binding and biological activity. The final QSAR models, along with information gathered from 3D contour and 2D contribution
maps, could be useful for the design of novel active inhibitors of PDF.

Pharmacophore mapping studies were undertaken for a series of molecules belonging to pyrrolopyrimidines, indolopyrimidines
and their congeners as multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) modulators. A five-point pharmacophore with two hydrogen
bond acceptors (A), one lipophilic/hydrophobic group (H), one positive ionic feature (P) and one aromatic ring (R) as pharmacophoric
features was developed. The pharmacophore hypothesis yielded a statistically significant 3D-QSAR model, with a correlation
coefficient of r
2 = 0.799 for training set molecules. The model generated showed excellent predictive power, with a correlation coefficient Q
2 = 0.679 for an external test set of 20 molecules. The pharmacophore was further validated using four structurally diverse
compounds with MRP1 modulatory activity. These compounds mapped well onto four of the five features of the pharmacophore.
The pharmacophore proposed here was then utilised for the successful retrieval of active molecules with diverse chemotypes
from database search. The geometry and features of pharmacophore are expected to be useful for the design of selective MRP1
inhibitors.

Orvinols are potent analgesics that target opioid receptors. However, their analgesic mechanism remains unclear and no significant preference for subtype opioid receptor has been achieved. In order to find new orvinols that target the κ-receptor, comparative 3D–QSAR studies were performed on 26 orvinol analogs using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). The best predictions for the κ-receptor were obtained with the CoMFA standard model (q
2=0.686, r
2=0.947) and CoMSIA model combined steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic, and hydrogen bond donor/acceptor fields (q
2=0.678, r
2=0.914). The models built were further validated by a test set made up of seven compounds, leading to predictive r
2 values of 0.672 for CoMFA and 0.593 for CoMSIA. The study could be helpful for designing and prepare new category κ-agonists from orvinols.

A novel molecular connectivity index, , based on the adjacency matrix of molecular graphs and novel atomic valence connectivities, , for predicting the molar diamagnetic susceptibilities of organic compounds is proposed. The is defined as: , where and Ei are the atomic valence connectivity and the valence orbital energy of atom i, respectively. A good QSPR model for molar diamagnetic
susceptibilities can be constructed from and using multivariate linear regression (MLR). The correlation coefficient r, standard error, and average absolute deviation
of the MLR model are 0.9918, 5.56 cgs, and 4.26 cgs, respectively, for the 721 organic compounds tested (training set). Cross-validation
using the leave-one-out method demonstrates that the MLR model is highly reliable statistically. Using the MLR model, the
average absolute deviations of the predicted values of molar diamagnetic susceptibility of another 360 organic compounds (test
set) is 4.34 cgs. The results show that the current method is more effective than literature methods for estimating the molar
diamagnetic susceptibility of an organic compound. The MLR method thus provides an acceptable model for the prediction of
molar diamagnetic susceptibilities of organic compounds.

Eight H-bonded complexes between isocytosine (isoC) tautomeric forms and R/S-lactic acid (LA) have been studied at the B3LYP and HF levels of theory using 6–31+G(d) basis set. The energy barriers of the intermolecular proton transfers were also estimated as the results showed that they are several times lower than those of the intramolecular proton transfers of isoC in the gas phase. Furthermore, the energy barriers of the tautomerizations in which the carboxylic H-atom takes part are several times lower than those in which the LA OH group assists the proton transfer.

Semi-empirical quantum mechanics calculations using AM1 (Austin Method 1) were carried out for various host-guest combinations of α-cyclodextrin and mono-halogen benzoic acids. The energetically favorable inclusion structures were identified. The AM1 results show that α-cyclodextrin complexes with mono-halogen benzoic acid acids (where the halogen is chlorine, bromide, iodine) as guest compounds are more stable in the “head first” position than in the “tail-first” position for meta and para isomers while ortho mono-halogen benzoic acids complexes with α-cyclodextrin are more stable in “tail-first” position. The calculated structures were found to be in good agreement with those obtained from crystalographic databases.

The 3D structure of a novel epoxide hydrolase from Aspergillus niger SQ-6 (sqEH) was constructed by using homology modeling
and molecular dynamics simulations. Based on the 3D model, Asp191, His369 and Glu343 were predicted as catalytic triad. The
putative active pocket is a hydrophobic environment and is rich in some important non—polar residues (Pro318, Trp282, Pro319,
Pro317 and Phe242). Using three sets of epoxide inhibitors for docking study, the interaction energies of sqEH with each inhibitor
are consistent with their inhibitory effects in previous experiments. Moreover, a critical water molecule which closes to
the His369 was identified to be an ideal position for the hydrolysis step of the reaction. Two tyrosine residues (Tyr249 and
Tyr312) are able to form hydrogen bonds with the epoxide oxygen atom to maintain the initial binding and positioning of the
substrate in the active pocket. These docked complex models can well interpret the substrate specificity of sqEH, which could
be relevant for the structural—based design of specific epoxide inhibitors.

Eight H-bonded complexes between serotonin (5-hydroxy-tryptamine) and water/hydrogen peroxide were studied at the B3LYP and
HF levels of theory, using the 6-31+G(d) basis set. A thermodynamic analysis was performed in order to find the most stable
complex. The calculated bonding parameters showed that the most stable H-bonded complex is formed between serotonin and hydrogen
peroxide by means of the intermolecular H-bond –H2N...H–OOH.

The structural and electronic properties of a three-state molecular switch—an active device in a nano-electronic circuit—were
studied using the B3LYP/6-31G* method. Due to its chemical stability, high conductivity upon doping, and non-linear optical
properties, polythiophene is among the most widely studied conjugated organic polymers, both experimentally and theoretically.
The aim of the present work was to theoretically study a very complex case: a three-state switch synthesized and experimentally
investigated by Nishida et al. (Org Lett 6:2523–2526, 2004). An initial set of test calculations showed B3LYP level of theory
and 6-31G* basis set to be the most appropriate for our purpose, i.e., the study of the structure, charge and spin distributions,
as well as electrical characteristics such as electric polarizability, HOMO-LUMO gap (HLG) and electric dipole moment, for
one of the 1,2-dithienylcyclopentene derivatives. Also, natural bond orbital analyses were performed to calculate local charges
and charge transfers in order to study the capability of the molecule as a molecular switch. The results reported here are
of general significance, and demonstrate that it is possible to use certain structural and electrical properties to understand
and design electro-photochromic compounds showing a switching function in cases where stable forms can be exchanged by light
or electron transfer.

The study of spin-spin coupling constants across hydrogen bond provides useful information about configuration of complexes.
The interesting case of such interactions was observed as a coupling across an intramolecular hydrogen bond in 8-bromo-2′,3′-O-isopropylideneadenosine between the -CH2OH (at 5″ proton) group and the nitrogen atom of adenine. In this paper we report theoretical investigations on the 4h

A theoretical analysis of the nature of the interactions in dibenzo[24]crown-8 (DB24C8)-n-dibutylammonium (DBM)—pseudorotaxane complex at the MP2 and DFT levels shows that the main contribution to the binding energy is the electrostatic interaction with moderate (20–25%) correlation stabilization. The total binding energy in the DB24C8-DBM complex represents a sum of the binding energies of two NH–O and one CH–O hydrogen bonds and the latter constitutes about 25% of the total interaction energy, giving the total binding energy of −41.2 kcal mol−1 at the BHandHLYP/6-311++G** level. Deprotonation of the DB24C8-DBM complex reduces the binding energy by some 50 kcal mol−1, giving metastable complexes DB24C8-DBA-1 or DB24C8-DBA-2, which will dissociate to give free crown ether and n-dibutylamine because of the strong exchange repulsion that prevails in neutral complexes.
