Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship Of Alkyl Ethers Using A Set Of Novel Topological Parameters

Two novel topological parameters, Vc and Vbc have been derived for 28 alkyl ether by considering connectivity of constituent atoms and their valence electrons. These two parameters have been used separately to correlate the anesthetic potency of the alkyl ethers and also their octanol-water partition coefficient. To optimize the relationship, parabolic equations have been proposed for anesthetic activities and partition coefficient values.
