Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR)
SAR versus QSAR, History and development of QSAR, Types of
physicochemical parameters, experimental and theoretical approaches for
the determination of physicochemical parameters such as Partition
coefficient, Hammet’s substituent constant and Tafts steric constant.
Hansch analysis, Free Wilson analysis, 3D-QSAR approaches like
COMFA and COMSIA.
