Quantum mechanical polar surface area
نویسندگان
چکیده
A correlation has been established between the absorbed fraction of training-set molecules after oral administration in humans and the Quantum Mechanical Polar Surface Area (QMPSA). This correlation holds for the QMPSA calculated with structures where carboxyl groups are deprotonated. The correlation of the absorbed fraction and the QMPSA calculated on the neutral gas phase optimized structures is much less pronounced. This suggests that the absorption process is mainly determined by polar interactions of the drug molecules in water solution. Rules are given to derive the optimal polar/apolar ranges of the electrostatic potential.

Towards a Correlation between Polar Surface Area of Drugs with Ex-vivo Transdermal Flux Variability
The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the polar surface area and other molecular properties of the model drugs and their transdermal permeability across the rat skin. Few model drugs which are weakly acidic (ibuprofen, aceclofenac and glipizide) and weakly basic (olanzapine, telmisartan and sildenafil citrate) were selected for the study based on Polar surface...
متن کاملQuantum mechanical investigation of 4-hydroxy phenyl azobenzene adsorption on the boron nitride nanotubes
In this study, the adsorption of 4-hydroxy phenyl-azobenzene on the surface of (4, 0) zigzag open-end boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) has been investigated by quantum calculations. In order to find the preferred adsorption site, different positions and orientations were considered. The impacts of donor-acceptor electron delocalization on the structural and electronic properties and reactivity of ...

متن کاملOn Quantum Statistical Mechanics of a Schwarzschild Black Hole
Quantum theory of geometry, developed recently in the framework of nonperturbative quantum gravity, is used in an attempt to explain thermodynamics of Schwarzschild black holes on the basis of a microscopical (quantum) description of the system. We work with the formulation of thermodynamics in which the black hole is enclosed by a spherical surface B and a macroscopic state of the system is sp...
