Abstract

This report presents the best possible QSPR models for predicting the solubility of aliphatic alcohols in water that can be obtained with non-orthogonalized valence-connectivity basis. The corresponding models with orthogonalized basis, ordered in the usual manner, are also given. However, both models are statistically equivalent. Therefore, we proposed a novel approach to the QSPR modelling, which is based on the consideration of all possible or- thogonalization orderings of the valence-connectivity basis and dominant descriptor analysis. This novel procedure produced models that are better than the empirical models of Amidon et al. and the Kier-Hall models when considering the same source of experimental data.
