Inductive descriptors
...
The
...
descriptors
...
were
...
developed
...
by
...
Dr.
...
Artem
...
Cherkasov.
...
These
...
descriptors
...
are
...
calculated
...
based
...
on
...
the
...
previous
...
models
...
of
...
inductive
...
and
...
steric
...
effects,
...
inductive
...
electronegativity
...
and
...
molecular
...
capacitance.
...
These
...
molecular
...
parameters
...
are
...
easily
...
accessible
...
from
...
electronegativities
...
and
...
covalent
...
radii
...
of
...
the
...
constituent
...
atoms
...
and
...
interatomic
...
distances
...
and
...
can
...
reflect
...
a
...
variety
...
of
...
aspects
...
of
...
intra-
...
and
...
intermolecular
...
interactions.
...
...
The
...
descriptors
...
are
...
based
...
on
...
the
...
Linear
...
Free
...
Energy
...
Relationships
...
(LFER)
...
equations
...
for
...
inductive
...
and
...
steric
...
substituent
...
constants,
...
were
...
implemented
...
according
...
to
...
Cherkasov.
...
These
...
descriptors
...
were
...
used
...
for
...
modeling
...
of
...
different
...
physicochemical
...
and
...
biological
...
properties
