title: Correlation analysis in a set of X-benzyltrimethylammonium derivatives with antimuscarinic activity.
abstract: The results of a pharmacological investigation on a series of meta-substituted benzyltrimethylammonium salts possessing an antimuscarinic activity are reported. Correlative analysis shows that the pharmacodynamic activity is a function of the hydrophobic-lipophilic parameter associated with the substituent.
