ABSTRACT
In this article, a Quantitative structure Activity Relationships (QSAR) for thirty five derivatives of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol is presented. These derivatives are divided into training and testing set. This study is mainly based on topological parameter among which five parameters have been used in training compounds, which provide better results. The calculation of parameters were performed by CAChe pro software using Project leader and the quality of the predictions will be adjudged by correlation coefficient and cross validation coefficient and other statistical parameters.
rCV2=0.333271 r2=0.540097 SE=0.2175 SEE=0.2950 t=4.5973 p=0.0001
This study clearly indicates that there is direct relation between molar refractivity, molecular polarizibility and observed activity. So we have used molar refractivity and molecular polarizibility on testing set of compounds. The best model is rCV2=0.435809 r2=0.57997 SE=0.2085 SEE=0.2585 t=4.793 p=0.0001 and
these two parameter give direct relationship with observed activities as in training set of compounds. On the basis of this study it is indicated that molar refractivity and molecular polarizability are best descriptors for estimating required activity on a series of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol derivatives.
Keywords: QSAR, Mannitol, Molecular polarzibility, Molar refractivity.
INTRODUCTION
immune system making people with AIDS much more likely to get infections, including opportunistic infections and tumors that do not affect people with working immune systems. This susceptibility gets worse as the disease continues.
AIDS is the ultimate clinical consequence of infection with HIV, which is a retrovirus that primarily infects vital organs of the human immune system such as CD4+ T cells (a subset of T cells), macrophages and dendritic cells. It directly and indirectly destroys CD4+ T cells4. Acquired immune deficiency syndrome is most fatal disorder for which no complete and successful chemotherapy has been developed so far. Recently, QSAR has gained importance in the field of pharmacological sciences5. Quantitative structures Activity Relationships (QSAR) are predictive tools for a preliminary evaluation of the activity of chemical compounds by using computer-aided models. The Hohenberg and Khon theorm based DFT6-8 provide a major boost to the computational chemistry. The performance of DFT method in description of structural, energetic and magnetic molecular properties has been reviewed quite substantially in recent time. DFT methods are in general capable of generating a variety of isolated molecular properties9-13. QSAR techniques increase the probability of success and reduce time and cost involvement in drug discovery process14-15. In this article, a Quantitative structure Activity Relationships (QSAR) for thirty five derivatives of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol16 is presented which are further divided into two set training and testing set. This study is mainly based on topological parameter and the quality of the predictions will be adjudged by correlation coefficient and cross validation coefficient and other statistical parameters. The parameters or the combination of parameter providing the best result will be recognized and employed for prediction purpose. This will be helpful in predicting the activity of any new derivative of required activity.
EXPERIMENTAL
We have based our QSAR study on a series of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol derivatives on the following reactivity indices (topological parameter):
1. Log P
2. Shape Index Order II
3. Solvent Accessible surface Area 4. Molecular Polarizibility
5. Molar Refractivity
The evaluation of these parameters is given as below:
Water/Octanol Partition coefficient (Log P) (17)

octanol oct./wat

logp
(1)Kier's shape indices: { n (n = 2)}[18-21]
These indices compare the molecule graph with "minimal" and "maximal" graphs, where the meaning of "minimal" and "maximal" depends on the order n. This is intended to capture different aspects of the molecular shape.
Order 2:
The descriptor 2 encodes the branching. P, Pmin, and Pmax now denote the number of paths of length 2 in the corresponding graphs. The maximal graph is taken to be the star graph in which all atoms are adjacent to a common atom. Thus, Pmax = (N - 1) (N - 2)/2. The linear graph is again taken as the minimal graph, so Pmin = N - 2. Equation (1) thus yields:
𝐾2 = (𝑁 − 1)(𝑁 − 2)2/𝑃2 (2)
Solvent Accessible surface area
The accessible surface area (ASA) is the surface area of a biomolecule (protein, DNA, etc.) that is accessible to a solvent. It is usually quoted in square angstrom (a standard unit of measurement in molecular biology). ASA was first described by Lee & Richards in 1971 is sometimes called the Lee-Richards molecular surface22. ASA is typically calculated using the 'rolling ball' algorithm developed by Shrake & Rupley in 1973.23 This algorithm uses a sphere (of solvent) of a particular radius to 'probe' the surface of the molecule. The choice of the 'probe radius' does have an effect on the observed surface area, as using a smaller probe radius detects more surface details and therefore reports a larger surface. A typical value is 1.4Å, which approximates the radius of a water molecule. Another factor that affects the results is the definition of the VDW radii of the atoms in the molecule under study. For example, the molecule may often lack hydrogen atoms which are implicit in the structure. The hydrogen atoms may be implicitly included in the atomic radii of the 'heavy' atoms, with a measure called the 'group radii'.
Molar refractivity: [24]
The molar refractivity is a constitutive-additive property that is calculated by the Lorenz-Lorentz formula:
𝑀𝑅 =𝑛2−1
𝑛2+2= 𝑀
𝜌 (3)
Polarizability:[24]
The electronic polarizability (ᾳ) is defined as the ratio of the induced dipole moment P of an atom to the electric field E that produces this dipole moment.
P =α x E (4)
Generally, polarizability increases as volume occupied by electrons increases.

The data set of thirty five derivative of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol is divided into training and testing set using random sampling technique for the analysis. The compound of the two sets is included in Table 1 and 3, along with their observed activities. Set A contain twenty training compounds and Set B contain fifteen testing compounds. Although a number of topological parameters are known only five parameters among them have been used in training compounds, which provide better results. The calculation of parameters was performed by CAChe pro software using Project leader, For QSAR prediction of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol we have performed the MLR technique on molecules of training set as shown in table 2. After regression analysis a few suitable model were obtained among which best one is selectedon the basis of correlation coefficient, standard error, standard error of estimation, t-value and p-value, the predicted activity are placed in Table 2.
rCV2=0.333271 r2=0.540097 SE=0.2175 SEE=0.2950 t=4.5973 p=0.0001
A small no. of topological descriptor (Log P, shape index order II, solvent accessible surface area, molecular polarizibility, molar refractivity) proposed were used to established a QSAR Model also establish a relationship between these parameters with observed activity.
A close look of Table 2 indicates that there is direct relation between molar refractivity, molecular polarizibility and observed activity. When observed activity increases, molar refractivity and molecular polarizibility decreases, but there is no sequential rise or fall.
In order to provide sequential relationship, Table 2 is divided into four subgroups (Table 5). Subgroup A contains Comp.no.19, 17, 18,10,4 and 6. Subgroup B contains Comp. no. 16, 3,12,8 and 7. Subgroup C contains Comp. no.20, 15, 14 and 9. Subgroup D contains Comp. no. 13, 11 and 1. Compound no. 2 and 5 do not follow this sequential trend. There is no relation between other topological parameter like log P, shape index order 2 and solvent assessable surface area and observed activity.
Additional validation was performed on testing data set, so we have used these two topological parameter viz. molar refractivity and molecular polarizibility on testing set of compound. The values of topological parameter are placed in Table 4. The QSAR model has been developed by molecular polarizibility and molar refractivity, which has good regression result and predicted activity are placed in Table 4.

Furthermore, a close observation of this table indicates that there is direct relation between molar refractivity, molecular polarizibility and observed activity. When observed activity increases, molar refractivity and molecular polarizibility decreases, but there is no sequential rise or fall. In order to provide sequential relationship, table is divided into two subgroups (Table 6). Subgroup A contains Comp. No 25, 31, 27,29,33,34 and 35, (except in the case molecular polarizibility Comp.no.27). Subgroup B contains Comp. no.30, 32 and 24, Compound no. 23, 22, 21, 26 and 28 do not follow this sequential trend.
From the above discussion it indicates that, in testing set there is same relation between molar refractivity & molecular polarizibility with observed activity as in training set of compounds. So we can conclude that topological parameter viz. molar refractivity and molecular polarizibility can better describe the required activity of same series of anti-HIV protease inhibitor mannitol derivatives.
