The flic presented contains 11 data items. The header lines arc property names as used by CACTVS [64, 65], and arc sufficiently self-descriptive. For example, E NHDONORS is the number of hydrogen bond donor.s, E SM1LES" is the SMILES string representing the structure of sulfamidc, and E LOGP is the logP value (octanol/water partition coefficient) for this substance. 

Two approaches to quantify/fQ, i.e., to establish a quantitative relationship between the structural features of a compoimd and its properties, are described in this section quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) and linear free energy relationships (LFER) cf. Section 3.4.2.2). The LFER approach is important for historical reasons because it contributed the first attempt to predict the property of a compound from an analysis of its structure. LFERs can be established only for congeneric series of compounds, i.e., sets of compounds that share the same skeleton and only have variations in the substituents attached to this skeleton. As examples of a QSPR approach, currently available methods for the prediction of the octanol/water partition coefficient, log P, and of aqueous solubility, log S, of organic compoimds are described in Section 10.1.4 and Section 10.15, respectively. 

An example of using one predicted property to predict another is predicting the adsorption of chemicals in soil. This is usually done by first predicting an octanol water partition coelficient and then using an equation that relates this to soil adsorption. This type of property-property relationship is most reliable for monofunctional compounds. Structure-property relationships, and to a lesser extent group additivity methods, are more reliable for multifunctional compounds than this type of relationship.

Strkcttire inflkence. The specificity of interphase transfer in the micellar-extraction systems is the independent and cooperative influence of the substrate molecular structure - the first-order molecular connectivity indexes) and hydrophobicity (log P - the distribution coefficient value in the water-octanole system) on its distribution between the water and the surfactant-rich phases. The possibility of substrates distribution and their D-values prediction in the cloud point extraction systems using regressions, which consider the log P and values was shown. Here the specificity of the micellar extraction is determined by the appearance of the host-guest phenomenon at molecular level and the high level of stmctural organization of the micellar phase itself. 

On the basis of data obtained the possibility of substrates distribution and their D-values prediction using the regressions which consider the hydrophobicity and stmcture of amines was investigated. The hydrophobicity of amines was estimated by the distribution coefficient value in the water-octanole system (Ig P). The molecular structure of aromatic amines was characterized by the first-order molecular connectivity indexes ( x)- H was shown the independent and cooperative influence of the Ig P and parameters of amines on their distribution. Evidently, this fact demonstrates the host-guest phenomenon which is inherent to the organized media. The obtained in the research data were used for optimization of the conditions of micellar-extraction preconcentrating of metal ions with amines into the NS-rich phase with the following determination by atomic-absorption method. 

A chemical must have certain physicochemical properties to elicit an endocrine disrupting effect. For example, the ability to enter the body and to cross the cell membrane into the cellular medium requires a degree of lipophilicity. Fipophilic potentials may be compared by reference to the chemical s octanol-water coefficient (usually expressed as log K ). This property, together with molecular size and chemical structure, has an important influence on the bioacciimiilation... 

Fig. 7-6). Two unichiral amides which have been known capable of this reaction are 1-phenylethylamine [15] and l-(l-naphthyl)ethylamine [16]. Marfey s reagent [N-a-(2,4-dinitro-5-fluorophenyl)-L-alaninamide] was introduced as a reagent to deriva-tize amino acids with cyclopentane, tetrahydroisoquinoline or tetraline structures [17]. Simple chiral alcohols such as 2-octanol can also be used to derivatize acids such as 2-chloro-3-phenylmethoxypropionic acid [18].

The ending caine stems from cocaine, the first clinically employed local anaesthetic. Procaine and tetracaine are ester-linked substances, the others are amides. Amide bonded local anaesthetics usually contain two i s in their name, ester-bonded only one. In the structure drawings, the lipophilic portion of the molecule is depicted at the left, the amine at the right. The asterisk marks the chiral centre of the stereoisomeric drugs. Lipid solubility is given as the logarithm of the water octanol partition coefficient, log(P). 

Aqueous solutions are not suitable solvents for esterifications and transesterifications, and these reactions are carried out in organic solvents of low polarity [9-12]. However, enzymes are surrounded by a hydration shell or bound water that is required for the retention of structure and catalytic activity [13]. Polar hydrophilic solvents such as DMF, DMSO, acetone, and alcohols (log P<0, where P is the partition coefficient between octanol and water) are incompatible and lead to rapid denaturation. Common solvents for esterifications and transesterifications include alkanes (hexane/log P=3.5), aromatics (toluene/2.5, benzene/2), haloalkanes (CHCI3/2, CH2CI2/I.4), and ethers (diisopropyl ether/1.9, terf-butylmethyl ether/ 0.94, diethyl ether/0.85). Exceptionally stable enzymes such as Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) have been used in more polar solvents (tetrahydrofuran/0.49, acetonitrile/—0.33). Room-temperature ionic liquids [14—17] and supercritical fluids [18] are also good media for a wide range of biotransformations. 

Our first exploration of property space was focused on acetylcholine. This molecule was chosen for its interesting structure, major biological role, and the abundant data available on its conformational properties [15]. The behavior of acetylcholine was analyzed by MD simulations in vacuum, in isotropic media (water and chloroform) [16] and in an anisotropic medium, i.e. a membrane model [17]. Hydrated n-octanol (Imol water/4mol octanol) was also used to represent a medium structurally intermediate between a membrane and the isotropic solvents [17]. 

Traditional octanol-water distribuhon coefficients are shll widely used in quan-titahve structure-achvity relationship (QSAR) and in ADM E/PK studies. However, alternahve solvent systems have been proposed [80]. To cover the variabihty in biophysical characterishcs of different membrane types a set of four solvents has been suggested, somehmes called the critical quartet [81]. The 1,2-dichloroeth-ane-water system has been promoted as a good alternative to alkane-water due to its far better dissolution properties [82, 83], but may find little applicahon because of its carcinogenic properties.

Surfactants employed for w/o-ME formation, listed in Table 1, are more lipophilic than those employed in aqueous systems, e.g., for micelles or oil-in-water emulsions, having a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of around 8-11 [4-40]. The most commonly employed surfactant for w/o-ME formation is Aerosol-OT, or AOT [sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate], containing an anionic sulfonate headgroup and two hydrocarbon tails. Common cationic surfactants, such as cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and trioctylmethyl ammonium bromide (TOMAC), have also fulfilled this purpose however, cosurfactants (e.g., fatty alcohols, such as 1-butanol or 1-octanol) must be added for a monophasic w/o-ME (Winsor IV) system to occur. Nonionic and mixed ionic-nonionic surfactant systems have received a great deal of attention recently because they are more biocompatible and they promote less inactivation of biomolecules compared to ionic surfactants. Surfactants with two or more hydrophobic tail groups of different lengths frequently form w/o-MEs more readily than one-tailed surfactants without the requirement of cosurfactant, perhaps because of their wedge-shaped molecular structure [17,41]. 

Antibiotics may be classified by chemical structure. Erythromycin, chloramphenicol, ampicillin, cefpodoxime proxetil, and doxycycline hydrochloride are antibiotics whose primary structures differ from each other (Fig. 19). Figure 20 shows potential oscillation across the octanol membrane in the presence of erythromycin at various concentrations [23]. Due to the low solubility of antibiotics in water, 1% ethanol was added to phase wl in all cases. Antibiotics were noted to shift iiB,sDS lo more positive values. Other potentials were virtually unaffected by the antibiotics. On oscillatory and induction periods, there were antibiotic effects but reproducibility was poor. Detailed study was then made of iiB,sDS- Figure 21 (a)-(d) shows potential oscillation in the presence of chloramphenicol, ampicillin, cefpodoxime proxetil, and doxycycline hydrochloride [21,23]. Fb.sds differed according to the antibiotic in phase wl and shifted to more positive values with concentration. No clear relationship between activity and oscillation mode due to complexity of the antibacterium mechanism could be discovered but at least it was shown possible to recognize or determine antibiotics based on potential oscillation measurement. 

Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain how phenolic acids directly increase membrane permeability. The first is that the compounds solubilize into cellular membranes, and thus cause a "loosening" of the membrane structure so that minerals can leak across the membrane (28-30, 42). Support for this hypothesis comes from the fact that the extent of inhibition of electrical potentials correlates with the log P (partition coefficient of a compound between octanol and water) for various benzoic and cinnamic acid derivatives (Figure 5).
