Abstract
We have used topological, topochemical and geometrical parameters in predicting: (a) normal boiling point of a set of 1023 chemicals and (b) lipophilicity (log P, octanol/water) of 219 chemicals. The results show that topological and topochemical variables can explain most of the variance in the data. The addition of geometrical parameters to the models provide marginal improvement in the model's predictive power. Among the three classes of descriptors, the topochemical indices were the most effective in predicting properties.
