Abstract:

According to the differences of chemical environment of carbon atoms in aromatic hydrocarbons, the carbon atom branching degree index δi in the Randi? connectivity index is modified, and a new molecular descriptor Modran is presented. Comparative analysis shows that the descriptor Modran has better selectivity for the chemical structure of aromatic molecules. Through analyzing the factors influencing the boiling points of aromatic hydrocarbons and using the best subset selection method, it is found that the combination of four molecular descriptors, such as Modran first-order and second-order branching index, molecular polarizability and aromatic ring carbon atom ratio, has good predictive ability for aromatics boiling point, and then linear combination model and neural network model including the four descriptors are established. Compared with the Marrero-Pardillo group contribution method, the neural network model of the four-molecule descriptor reduces the average absolute error of the boiling point prediction of aromatics from 12.26 K to 4.56 K.

Key words: molecular descriptor, aromatic hydrocarbons, boiling point prediction, quantitative structure-property relationship, neural network

摘要:

根据芳烃分子中碳原子所处化学环境的差异,修正分子描述符Randi?连接性指数中碳原子支化度参数δi ,提出新的分子描述符Modran;通过对比分析表明描述符Modran对芳烃分子的化学结构具有更好的选择性。分析芳烃沸点的影响因素,采用最优子集选择法,发现Modran一阶和二阶支化度指数、分子极化率和芳环碳原子占比四个分子描述符参数的组合对芳烃沸点具有良好的预测能力,进而建立包含Modran等四分子描述符的线性组合模型和神经网络模型。与Marrero-Pardillo基团贡献法比较,四分子描述符的神经网络模型将芳烃沸点预测的平均绝对误差由12.26 K降低到4.56 K。
