Abstract
Structure‐activity relationships of 46 P450 2A6 inhibitors were analyzed using the 3D‐QSAR methodology. The analysis was carried out to confront the use of traditional steric and electrostatic fields with that of a number of fields reflecting conceptual DFT properties: electron density, HOMO, LUMO, and Fukui f^−^ function as 3D fields. The most predictive models were obtained by combining the information of the electron density with the Fukui f^−^ function (r^2^ = 0.82, q^2^ = 0.72), yielding a statistically significant and predictive model. The generated model was able to predict the inhibition potencies of an external test set of five chemicals. The result of the analysis indicates that conceptual DFT‐based molecular fields can be useful as 3D QSAR molecular interaction fields. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comput Chem 2009
