It was found that there is significant correlation between the Cl substitution position and some structural parameters. Consequently, Cl substitution positions were taken as theoretical descriptors to establish a novel QSPR model for predicting –lgSw of all PCB congeners. The model achieved in this work contains four variables, of which r^2 = 0.9527, q^2 = 0.9490 and SD = 0.25 with large t values. In addition, the variation inflation factors （VIFs） of variables in this model are all less than 5.0, suggesting high accuracy of the –lgSw predicting model. And the results of cross-validation test and method validation also show that the model exhibits optimum stability and better predictive capability than that from the AM1 method.展开更多

These structural parameters are taken as theoretical descriptors, and the experimental data of 20 compounds＇ aquatic photogen toxicity（-lgEC50） are used to perform stepwise regression in order to obtain two predicted -lgEC50 correlation models whose correlation coefficients R^2 are respectively 0.9186 and 0.9567. In addition, parameters of chlorine atom＇s substitutive positions and their correlations （NPCs） are taken as descriptors to obtain another predicted -lgEC50 model with the correlation coefficient R2 of 0.9444. Correlation degree of each independent variable in the three models is verified by using variance inflation factors （VIF） and t value. In the cross-validation method, cross-validation coefficients q^2 of 3 models are respectively 0.8748, 0.9119 and 0.8993, which indicates that the relativity and prediction ability of this model are superior to those of the model obtained by topological and BLYP methods.展开更多

In addition,the values of molar heat capacities at constant pressure(cp,m)from 200 to 1000 K for PCXT congeners are calculated,and the temperature dependence relation of this parameter is obtained using the least-squares method.展开更多

Based on these data, the isodesmic reacflons are designed to calculate the standard enthalpy of formation （△fH^θ） and the standard Gibbs energy of formation （△fG^θ） of PBDTs. The relations of these thermodynamic parameters with the number and positionof bromine subsfituents （NPBS） are discussed, and it is found that there exist good correlations between othermody namic parameters （including heat capacity at constant volume, entropy, enthaipy, free energy, △fH^θ, △fG^θ） and NPBS. Thoe relative stability order of PBDT congeners is proposed theoretically based on the relative magnitude of their △fG^θ. In addition, the values of molar heat capacities at constant pressure （Cp,m） for PBDT c ongelaers are calculated.展开更多

Based on the output data of Gaussian, the isodesmic reactions were designed to calculate standard enthalpy of formation （△fH^θ） and standard free energy of formation （△fH^θ） of PCTAs congeners. The relations of these thermodynamic parameters with the number and position of C1 atom substitution （Npcs） were discussed, and it was found that there exists high correlation between thermodynamic parameters （total energy （TE）, zero-point vibrational energy （ZPE）, thermal correction to energy （Eth）, heat capacity at constant volume （Cv^θ）, entropy （S^θ）, enthalpy （H^θ）, free energy （G^θ）, standard enthalpies of formation （△fH^θ） and standard Gibbs energies of formation （△fG^θ）） and Npcs. On the basis of the relative magnitude of their △fG^θ, the order of relative stability of PCTA congeners was theoretically proposed. In addition, the correlations between structural parameters and Npcs were also discussed. The good correlations were found between molecular average polarizability （α）, energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital （EHOMO）, molecular volume （Vm） and Npcs, and all R^2 values are larger than 0.95. Moreover, it was supposed that the isomer groups with higher toxicity should be Tri-CTA and TCTA.展开更多
