If multiple HTS actives of the same chemical family are to some extent leadlike (vide infra), they become a lead series, that is, structures that are amenable for further chemistry optimization and exhibit favorable patent situation [18, 19]. Lead series are further queried and derivatized in order to derive analogs with the appropriate blend of pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties. 

We could define matrix multiplication to be analogous to addition simply multiplying corresponding elements. After all, in mathematics any rules are permitted, as long as they do not lead to contradictions. However, as we shall see in a moment, for matrices to be useful in dealing with simultaneous equations we must adopt a slightly more complex multiplication rule. The easiest way to understand matrix multiplication is to first define series multiplication. If series a = Sa = cti a2 <+. .., and series b = Sb = bx b2 /+. . then we define the series product as...

The leading role in the study of a system for nonintegrahility is played by the expansion term Hi s,p). It is sometimes referred to as the disturbing function. Expand the disturbing function into a multiple Fourier series... 

Second, since the ID for an arbitrary set of vibrational occupation numbers, mi, m2,..., mjv. Hi, H2,. .., wjv, can be obtained by equating coefficients of the IN expansion variables in the infinite multiple power series of Gn, the IDs can be easily convoluted with themselves through the use of simple rules for multiplication of power series. In this way, some addition theorems concerning the normal mode shifts and the order (dimension) of the IDs can be derived (see Sections 4.1.1 and 4.2.2). So the convolution of two or more IDs of given orders leads to a joined ID, the order ofwhich is equal to the sum of the orders of the factors. This important aspect of the ID is of practical use in treating dense manifolds of vibronic states that occur in the statistical limit. 

Table 7.1 presents us with something of a dilemma. We would obviously desire to explore i much of the phase space as possible but this may be compromised by the need for a sma time step. One possible approach is to use a multiple time step method. The underlyir rationale is that certain interactions evolve more rapidly with rime than other interaction The twin-range method (Section 6.7.1) is a crude type of multiple time step approach, i that interactions involving atoms between the lower and upper cutoff distance remai constant and change only when the neighbour list is updated. However, this approac can lead to an accumulation of numerical errors in calculated properties. A more soph sticated approach is to approximate the forces due to these atoms using a Taylor seri< expansion [Streett et al. 1978] ... 

Imoto and co-workers have also studied the pA values of substituted thiazolecarboxylic acids and the alkaline hydrolysis of their ethyl esters, each in three relative positions (2-B-4-Y, 2-B-5-Y, and 5-II-2-Y). In the case of the pA values, the p-values are far from constant, varying from 0.83 to 2,35, This variation is likely to be due to the intervention of tautomeric equilibria and of hydrogen bonds. The /3-ratios for the three sets of ester hydrolyses are roughly constant (0,61-0.73), and, assuming that the introduction of two heteroatoms leads to cumulative (multiplicative) effects on the transmission, this result is of the same order of magnitude as the product of the and values discussed above, i.e. 1.0 and 0.6, respectively. The lowest value for the pA (0,83) for the 2-R-5-COOH series is also of the same order of magnitude. All the available reaction constants are summarized in Table VI. 

This reaction cannot be elementary. We can hardly expect three nitric acid molecules to react at all three toluene sites (these are the ortho and para sites meta substitution is not favored) in a glorious, four-body collision. Thus, the fourth-order rate expression 01 = kab is implausible. Instead, the mechanism of the TNT reaction involves at least seven steps (two reactions leading to ortho- or /mra-nitrotoluene, three reactions leading to 2,4- or 2,6-dinitrotoluene, and two reactions leading to 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene). Each step would require only a two-body collision, could be elementary, and could be governed by a second-order rate equation. Chapter 2 shows how the component balance equations can be solved for multiple reactions so that an assumed mechanism can be tested experimentally. For the toluene nitration, even the set of seven series and parallel reactions may not constitute an adequate mechanism since an experimental study found the reaction to be 1.3 order in toluene and 1.2 order in nitric acid for an overall order of 2.5 rather than the expected value of 2.
