THREE-DIMENSIONAL QSAR MODELING BENZIMIDAZOLE ANALOGUES USING THE K-NEAREST NEIGHBOR METHOD

摘要

We undertook the three-dimensional (3D) QSAR studies of a series of benzimidazole analogues to elucidate the structural properties required for angiotensin II. The 3D-QSAR studies were performed using the stepwise, simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithm (GA) selection k-nearest neighbor molecular field analysis approach; a leave-one-out cross-validated correlation coefficient q~2 = 0.8216 and a pred_r~2= 0.7852 were obtained. The 3D QSAR model is expected to provide a good alternative to predict the biological activity prior to synthesis as antihypertensive agents.
