Abstract: | Abstract A new quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) technique combining the Free-Wilson method and constructed quantum chemical parameters was used to simulate the aqueous solubility (S w), 1-octanol/water partition coefficient (K ow) of 14 new synthesized benzanilide derivatives and their 96 h acute toxicity (EC50) to Daphnia magna. The mode of action of the 14 selected compounds to Daphnia magna was shown to be a complex process involving a physical partition stage and a biochemical reaction stage. The results also indicated that the joint (QSAR) analysis was much effective than the original Free-Wilson method and Hansch method not only in predicting properties/toxicity, but also in investigating the mode of action of chemicals. |
