Abstract

An influence of the molecular structure of hydrocarbons and halogenated derivatives thereof upon the acute toxicity was studied with the use of a 2D simplex representation of the molecular structure and partial least squares technique. Adequate QSAR models were obtained, wherefrom structural fragments have been revealed those could cause the toxicity level to increase. With the help of QSAR models a relative influence of some physicochemical factors upon the acute toxicity was assessed.
