QSPR modeling for solubility of fullerene (C(60)) in organic solvents.
Solubility of fullerene C(60) in 75 organic solvents was examined to develop quantitative structure-solubility relationships. Topological indices and polarizability parameter computed from refractive index were used to form the regression models. The models suggested for individual data sets such as alkanes, alkyl halides, alcohols, cycloalkanes, alkylbenzenes, and aryl halides have good predictive ability and are better than the models for the combined groups. Inclusion of an indicator parameter which is a combination of atom contributions and contributions of substituents' position in benzenes improved the predictive ability significantly.
