Multiple linear regression models for predicting the n‑octanol/water partition coefficients in the SAMPL7 blind challenge.

ABSTRACT: A multiple linear regression model called MLR-3 is used for predicting the experimental n-octanol/water partition coefficient (log P_N) of 22 N-sulfonamides proposed by the organizers of the SAMPL7 blind challenge. The MLR-3 method was trained with 82 molecules including drug-like sulfonamides and small organic molecules, which resembled the main functional groups present in the challenge dataset. Our model, submitted as "TFE-MLR", presented a root-mean-square error of 0.58 and mean absolute error of 0.41 in log P units, accomplishing the highest accuracy, among empirical methods and also in all submissions based on the ranked ones. Overall, the results support the appropriateness of multiple linear regression approach MLR-3 for computing the n-octanol/water partition coefficient in sulfonamide-bearing compounds. In this context, the outstanding performance of empirical methodologies, where 75% of the ranked submissions achieved root-mean-square errors < 1 log P units, support the suitability of these strategies for obtaining accurate and fast predictions of physicochemical properties as partition coefficients of bioorganic compounds.

The SAMPL6 challenge on predicting octanol-water partition coefficients from EC-RISM theory.

Project description:Results are reported for octanol-water partition coefficients (log P) of the neutral states of drug-like molecules provided during the SAMPL6 (Statistical Assessment of Modeling of Proteins and Ligands) blind prediction challenge from applying the "embedded cluster reference interaction site model" (EC-RISM) as a solvation model for quantum-chemical calculations. Following the strategy outlined during earlier SAMPL challenges we first train 1- and 2-parameter water-free ("dry") and water-saturated ("wet") models for n-octanol solvation Gibbs energies with respect to experimental values from the "Minnesota Solvation Database" (MNSOL), yielding a root mean square error (RMSE) of 1.5 kcal mol-1 for the best-performing 2-parameter wet model, while the optimal water model developed for the pKa part of the SAMPL6 challenge is kept unchanged (RMSE 1.6 kcal mol-1 for neutral compounds from a model trained on both neutral and ionic species). Applying these models to the blind prediction set yields a log P RMSE of less than 0.5 for our best model (2-parameters, wet). Further analysis of our results reveals that a single compound is responsible for most of the error, SM15, without which the RMSE drops to 0.2. Since this is the only compound in the challenge dataset with a hydroxyl group we investigate other alcohols for which Gibbs energy of solvation data for both water and n-octanol are available in the MNSOL database to demonstrate a systematic cause of error and to discuss strategies for improvement.

Precise force-field-based calculations of octanol-water partition coefficients for the SAMPL7 molecules.

Project description:We predicted water-octanol partition coefficients for the molecules in the SAMPL7 challenge with explicit solvent classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Water hydration free energies and octanol solvation free energies were calculated with a windowed alchemical free energy approach. Three commonly used force fields (AMBER GAFF, CHARMM CGenFF, OPLS-AA) were tested. Special emphasis was placed on converging all simulations, using a criterion developed for the SAMPL6 challenge. In aggregate, over 1000 [Formula: see text]s of simulations were performed, with some free energy windows remaining not fully converged even after 1 [Formula: see text]s of simulation time. Nevertheless, the amount of sampling produced [Formula: see text] estimates with a precision of 0.1 log units or better for converged simulations. Despite being probably as fully sampled as can expected and is feasible, the agreement with experiment remained modest for all force fields, with no force field performing better than 1.6 in root mean squared error. Overall, our results indicate that a large amount of sampling is necessary to produce precise [Formula: see text] predictions for the SAMPL7 compounds and that high precision does not necessarily lead to high accuracy. Thus, fundamental problems remain to be solved for physics-based [Formula: see text] predictions.

Prediction of n-octanol/water partition coefficients and acidity constants (pK<sub>a</sub>) in the SAMPL7 blind challenge with the IEFPCM-MST model.

Project description:Within the scope of SAMPL7 challenge for predicting physical properties, the Integral Equation Formalism of the Miertus-Scrocco-Tomasi (IEFPCM/MST) continuum solvation model has been used for the blind prediction of n-octanol/water partition coefficients and acidity constants of a set of 22 and 20 sulfonamide-containing compounds, respectively. The log P and pKa were computed using the B3LPYP/6-31G(d) parametrized version of the IEFPCM/MST model. The performance of our method for partition coefficients yielded a root-mean square error of 1.03 (log P units), placing this method among the most accurate theoretical approaches in the comparison with both globally (rank 8th) and physical (rank 2nd) methods. On the other hand, the deviation between predicted and experimental pKa values was 1.32 log units, obtaining the second best-ranked submission. Though this highlights the reliability of the IEFPCM/MST model for predicting the partitioning and the acid dissociation constant of drug-like compounds compound, the results are discussed to identify potential weaknesses and improve the performance of the method.

Quantum chemical predictions of water-octanol partition coefficients applied to the SAMPL6 logP blind challenge.

Project description:Theoretical approaches for predicting physicochemical properties are valuable tools for accelerating the drug discovery process. In this work, quantum chemical methods are used to predict water-octanol partition coefficients as a part of the SAMPL6 blind challenge. The SMD continuum solvent model was employed with MP2 and eight DFT functionals in conjunction with correlation consistent basis sets to determine the water-octanol transfer free energy. Several tactics towards improving the predictions of the partition coefficient were examined, including increasing the quality of basis sets, considering tautomerization, and accounting for inhomogeneities in the water and n-octanol phases. Evaluation of these various schemes highlights the impact of modeling approaches across different methods. With the inclusion of tautomers and adjustments to the permittivity constants, the best predictions were obtained with smaller basis sets and the O3LYP functional, which yielded an RMSE of 0.79 logP units. The results presented correspond to the SAMPL6 logP submission IDs: DYXBT, O7DJK, and AHMTF.

Predicting partition coefficients for the SAMPL7 physical property challenge using the ClassicalGSG method.

Project description:The prediction of [Formula: see text] values is one part of the statistical assessment of the modeling of proteins and ligands (SAMPL) blind challenges. Here, we use a molecular graph representation method called Geometric Scattering for Graphs (GSG) to transform atomic attributes to molecular features. The atomic attributes used here are parameters from classical molecular force fields including partial charges and Lennard-Jones interaction parameters. The molecular features from GSG are used as inputs to neural networks that are trained using a "master" dataset comprised of over 41,000 unique [Formula: see text] values. The specific molecular targets in the SAMPL7 [Formula: see text] prediction challenge were unique in that they all contained a sulfonyl moeity. This motivated a set of ClassicalGSG submissions where predictors were trained on different subsets of the master dataset that are filtered according to chemical types and/or the presence of the sulfonyl moeity. We find that our ranked prediction obtained 5th place with an RMSE of 0.77 [Formula: see text] units and an MAE of 0.62, while one of our non-ranked predictions achieved first place among all submissions with an RMSE of 0.55 and an MAE of 0.44. After the conclusion of the challenge we also examined the performance of open-source force field parameters that allow for an end-to-end [Formula: see text] predictor model: General AMBER Force Field (GAFF), Universal Force Field (UFF), Merck Molecular Force Field 94 (MMFF94) and Ghemical. We find that ClassicalGSG models trained with atomic attributes from MMFF94 can yield more accurate predictions compared to those trained with CGenFF atomic attributes.

Octanol-water partition coefficient measurements for the SAMPL6 blind prediction challenge.

Project description:Partition coefficients describe the equilibrium partitioning of a single, defined charge state of a solute between two liquid phases in contact, typically a neutral solute. Octanol-water partition coefficients ([Formula: see text]), or their logarithms (log P), are frequently used as a measure of lipophilicity in drug discovery. The partition coefficient is a physicochemical property that captures the thermodynamics of relative solvation between aqueous and nonpolar phases, and therefore provides an excellent test for physics-based computational models that predict properties of pharmaceutical relevance such as protein-ligand binding affinities or hydration/solvation free energies. The SAMPL6 Part II octanol-water partition coefficient prediction challenge used a subset of kinase inhibitor fragment-like compounds from the SAMPL6 [Formula: see text] prediction challenge in a blind experimental benchmark. Following experimental data collection, the partition coefficient dataset was kept blinded until all predictions were collected from participating computational chemistry groups. A total of 91 submissions were received from 27 participating research groups. This paper presents the octanol-water log P dataset for this SAMPL6 Part II partition coefficient challenge, which consisted of 11 compounds (six 4-aminoquinazolines, two benzimidazole, one pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine, one pyridine, one 2-oxoquinoline substructure containing compounds) with log P values in the range of 1.95-4.09. We describe the potentiometric log P measurement protocol used to collect this dataset using a Sirius T3, discuss the limitations of this experimental approach, and share suggestions for future log P data collection efforts for the evaluation of computational methods.

Estimating n-octanol-water partition coefficients for neutral highly hydrophobic chemicals using measured n-butanol-water partition coefficients.

Project description:Direct measurement of the n-octanol partition coefficients (KOW) for highly hydrophobic organic chemicals is extremely difficult because of the extremely low concentrations present in the water phase. n-Butanol/water partition coefficients (KBW) are generally much lower than KOW due to the increased solubility of solute in the alcohol saturated aqueous phase, and therefore become easier to measure. We measured the KBW for 25 neutral organic chemicals having measured log KOWs ranging from 2 to 9 and 4 additional highly hydrophobic chemicals, with unmeasured KOWs, having estimated log KOWs ranging from 6 to 18. The measured log KBW and log KOW values were linearly related, r2 = 0.978, and using the regression developed from the data, KOWs were predicted for the 4 highly hydrophobic chemicals with unmeasured KOWs. The resulting predictions were orders of magnitude lower than those predicted by a variety of computational models and suggests the estimates of KOW in the literature for highly hydrophobic chemicals (i.e., log KOW greater than 10) are likely incorrect by several orders of magnitude.

Calculating Partition Coefficients of Small Molecules in Octanol/Water and Cyclohexane/Water.

Project description:Partition coefficients describe how a solute is distributed between two immiscible solvents. They are used in drug design as a measure of a solute's hydrophobicity and a proxy for its membrane permeability. We calculate partition coefficients from transfer free energies using molecular dynamics simulations in explicit solvent. Setup is done by our new Solvation Toolkit which automates the process of creating input files for any combination of solutes and solvents for many popular molecular dynamics software packages. We calculate partition coefficients between octanol/water and cyclohexane/water with the Generalized AMBER Force Field (GAFF) and the Dielectric Corrected GAFF (GAFF-DC). With similar methods in the past we found a root-mean-squared error (RMSE) of 6.3 kJ/mol in hydration free energies which would correspond to an error of around 1.6 log units in partition coefficients if solvation free energies in both solvents were estimated with comparable accuracy. Here we find an overall RMSE of about 1.2 log units with both force fields. Results from GAFF and GAFF-DC seem to exhibit systematic biases in opposite directions for calculated cyclohexane/water partition coefficients.

Multi-phase Boltzmann weighting: accounting for local inhomogeneity in molecular simulations of water-octanol partition coefficients in the SAMPL6 challenge.

Project description:Accurately computing partition coefficients is a pivotal part of drug discovery. Specifically, octanol-water partition coefficients can provide information into hydrophobicity of drug-like molecules, as well as a de facto representation of membrane permeability. However, one challenge facing the computation of partition coefficients is the need to encapsulate various microscopic environments. These include areas of largely bulk solvent (i.e., either water or octanol) or regions where octanol is saturated with water or areas of higher salt concentration. Also, tautomeric effects require consideration. Thus, we present a Boltzmann weighting approach that incorporates transfer free energies across varying microscopic media, as well as varying tautomeric state, to compute partition coefficients in the SAMPL6 challenge.

A NON-LINEAR STRUCTURE-PROPERTY MODEL FOR OCTANOL-WATER PARTITION COEFFICIENT.

Project description:Octanol-water partition coefficient (K(ow)) is an important thermodynamic property used to characterize the partitioning of solutes between an aqueous and organic phase and has importance in such areas as pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, chemical production and environmental toxicology. We present a non-linear quantitative structure-property relationship model for determining K(ow) values of new molecules in silico. A total of 823 descriptors were generated for 11,308 molecules whose K(ow) values are reported in the PhysProp dataset by Syracuse Research. Optimum network architecture and its associated inputs were identified using a wrapper-based feature selection algorithm that combines differential evolution and artificial neural networks. A network architecture of 50-33-35-1 resulted in the least root-mean squared error (RMSE) in the training set. Further, to improve on single-network predictions, a neural network ensemble was developed by combining five networks that have the same architecture and inputs but differ in layer weights. The ensemble predicted the K(ow) values with RMSE of 0.28 and 0.38 for the training set and internal validation set, respectively. The ensemble performed reasonably well on an external dataset when compared with other popular K(ow) models in the literature.
