Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships of Salicylic Acid Derivatives by Quantum Chemical Calculations

양자화학적 계산에 의한 살리씰산유도체의 정량적 구조-활성 상관관계

QSAR of Salicylic acid derivatives, as anti-inflammatory agent, classified into Group I (not-having-5-phenyl ones) and Group II (having-5-phenyl ones) were investigated by quantum chemical calculations. The results are below: not significant statistically for both of Group I and Group II, but significant for each Group. $potency=-8.46X_{5}+1.639\;n=5\;r=0.77\;se=0.31\;for\;Group\;I.$ $({\pm}4.05)\;({\pm}0.5)$ where $X_5$ means charge of carbon atom bonded to hydroxyl radical. $potency=0.16X_{19}+7427.38HO-6629.85X_{15}+4977.40X_{10}+351.51X_5+3378.84$ $({\pm}0.17)\;({\pm}10.18)\;({\pm}11.70)\;({\pm}33.78)\;({\pm}4.41)\;({\pm}13.13)$ n=7 r=0.99 se=0.019 for Group II. where $X_{19}$ and $X_{15}$ stand for charges of the para carbon and the first carbon atoms in phenyl radical, respectively and $X_{10}$, charge of carboxylic carbon atom, HO, HOMO energy. It seems to be possible to qualitatively predict potency of drug by Pearson's HSAB theory. It means that drug should possess low LUMO energy and high HOMO energy.
