Abstract

Two-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) studies of anti-trypanosomatid, furoxan alkylnitrate derivatives have been carried out. This study aims at establishing a quantitative structure activity relationship between furoxan alkylnitrate molecule and their anti-trypanosomatid property. A statistically best QSAR model was obtained with a correlation coefficient r2 of 0.8559, cross validation coefficient, q2 of 0.8072 and pred_r2 value of 0.8217. Various 2D descriptors were calculated and used in the present analysis. The descriptors SdssS (sulfone) count and SdsNE-index suggested that sulphone and NO2 groups at the R1 and R2 positions of furoxan moiety will increases anti-trypanosomatid activity. It will be useful to build a QSAR model to correlate the properties of new untested furoxan derivatives with their anti-trypanosomatid activity.
