Abstract
The 3C-like protease (3CLpro), known as the main protease of SARS-COV, plays a vital role in the viral replication cycle and is a critical target for the development of SARS inhibitor. Comparative sequence analysis has shown that the 3CLpro of two coronaviruses, SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV, show high structural similarity, and several common features are shared among the substrates of 3CLpro in different coronaviruses. The goal of this study is the development of validated QSAR models by CORAL software and Monte Carlo optimization to predict the inhibitory activity of 81 isatin and indole-based compounds against SARS CoV 3CLpro. The models were built using a newer objective function optimization of this software, known as the index of ideality correlation (IIC), which provides favorable results. The entire set of molecules was randomly divided into four sets including: active training, passive training, calibration and validation sets. The optimal descriptors were selected from the hybrid model by combining SMILES and hydrogen suppressed graph (HSG) based on the objective function. According to the model interpretation results, eight synthesized compounds were extracted and introduced from the ChEMBL database as good SARS CoV 3CLpro inhibitor. Also, the activity of the introduced molecules further was supported by docking studies using 3CLpro of both SARS-COV-1 and SARS-COV-2. Based on the results of ADMET and OPE study, compounds CHEMBL4458417 and CHEMBL4565907 both containing an indole scaffold with the positive values of drug-likeness and the highest drug-score can be introduced as selected leads.

Abstract
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) which is resulted from the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase (TK) chimeric oncoprotein, is a malignant clonal disorder of hematopoietic stem cells. Imatinib is used as an inhibitor of BCR-ABL TK in the treatment of CML patients. The main object of the present manuscript is focused on constructing quantitative activity relationships (QSARs) models for the prediction of inhibition potencies of a large series of imatinib derivatives against BCR-ABL TK. Herren, the inbuilt Monte Carlo algorithm of CORAL software is employed to develop QSAR models. The SMILES notations of chemical structures are used to compute the descriptor of correlation weights (CWs). QSAR models are established using the balance of correlation method with the index of ideality of correlation (IIC). The data set of 306 molecules is randomly divided into three splits. In QSAR modeling, the numerical value of R2, Q2, and IIC for the validation set of splits 1 to 3 are in the range of 0.7180-0.7755, 0.6891-0.7561, and 0.4431-0.8611 respectively. The numerical result of [Formula: see text] > 0.5 for all three constructed models in the Y-randomization test validate the reliability of established models. The promoters of increase/decrease for pIC50 are recognized and used for the mechanistic interpretation of structural attributes.

Abstract
In this work, a three-component reaction of 3-acetyl-4-hydroxycoumarine, malononitrile, or cyanoacetate in the presence of ammonium acetate was used to form coumarin derivatives. The chemical structures of new compounds were identified by 1H, 13C NMR and an elemental analysis. These compounds were examined in vitro for their antimicrobial activity against a panel of bacterial strains. In addition, these compounds were investigated for antioxidant activities by superoxideradical, DPPH (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays, in which most of them displayed significant antioxidant activities. Furthermore, these compounds were evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity by indirect hemolytic and lipoxygenase inhibition assays and revealed good activity. In addition, screening of the selected compounds 2–4 against colon carcinoma cell lines (HCT-116) and hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG-2) showed that that 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)nicotinonitrile 4 exhibited good cytotoxic activity against standard Vinblastine, while the other compounds exhibited moderate cytotoxic activity. Docking simulation showed that2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)nicotinonitrile 4 is an effective inhibitor of the tumor protein HCT-116. A large fluorescence enhancement in a highly acidic medium was observed, and large fluorescence quenching by the addition of traces of Cu2+ and Ni2+ was also remarked.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The increase in resistance of pathogenic organisms to the available chemotherapeutic agents are critical challenges in drug design and development, motivating researchers to look for novel compounds that can combat multidrug-resistant organisms. Recently, chalcones have been proved to be attractive moieties in drug discovery.
Results
Eight novel triphenylamine chalcones with different substitution patterns were successfully synthesized via the conventional Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction in an alkaline medium at room temperature, and recrystallized using ethanol, the percentage yield of the compounds were between 30 and 92%. The structures of the synthesized chalcones were successfully characterized and confirmed using FT-IR, NMR spectroscopic and GC–MS spectrometric techniques.
Conclusions
The results of the biological studies showed that all the synthesized chalcones possess remarkable activities against the tested microbes, by showing a significant zone of inhibitions relative to that of the standard drugs used. The investigation revealed that 1b showed highest ZOI (30 mm), lowest MIC (12.5 µg/ml) and MBC/MFC (50 µg/ml) on Aspergillus niger. Therefore, displayed better antifungal potential as compared to the rest of the compounds, and can be a potential antifungal drug candidate.

Abstract
QSAR modeling was performed on 39 quinolone-triazole derivatives against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria. The molecular structures were optimized using the DFT/B3LYP method and 6-31 G basis set. Molecular descriptors were extracted using quantum mechanical calculations. The hierarchical cluster analysis was performed for a rational subset division. The initial dataset was divided into calibration and validation sets, and modeling was done by stepwise MLR method for each of the two bacteria. Internal and external validation methods confirmed the robustness and predictability of the obtained models. According to the obtained model for S. aureus (R2 = 0.889, R2ext = 0.938, Q2LOO = 0.853), the four descriptors- partial atomic charges for the N1 atom in triazole and C7 of the quinolone nucleus, 4-carbonyl bond length, and 13C-NMR chemical shift of 3-carboxylic acid- were found to be the descriptors controlling the activity. According to the obtained model for P. aeruginosa (R2 = 0.957, R2ext = 0.923, Q2LOO = 0.909), the O atom's partial charge in carbonyl, LUMO-HOMO energy gap, and logP were found to be the descriptors having the highest correlation with the antibacterial activity. Finally, some new compounds with higher activities were designed and proposed.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have captured intensive attention owing to their unique properties such as high thermal stability, negligible vapour pressure, high dissolution capacity and high ionic conductivity as well as their wide applications in various scientific fields including organic synthesis, catalysis, and industrial extraction processes. Many applications of ionic liquids (ILs) rely on the melting point (Tm). Therefore, in the present manuscript, the melting points of imidazolium ILs are studied employing a quantitative structure–property relationship (QSPR) approach to develop a model for predicting the melting points of a data set of imidazolium ILs. The Monte Carlo algorithm of CORAL software is applied to build up a robust QSPR model to calculate the values Tm of 353 imidazolium ILs. Using a combination of SMILES and hydrogen-suppressed molecular graphs (HSGs), the hybrid optimal descriptor is computed and used to generate the QSPR models. Internal and external validation parameters are also employed to evaluate the predictability and reliability of the QSPR model. Four splits are prepared from the dataset and each split is randomly distributed into four sets i.e. training set (≈33%), invisible training set (≈31%), calibration set (≈16%) and validation set (≈20%). In QSPR modelling, the numerical values of various statistical features of the validation sets such as RValidation2, QValidation2, and IICValidation are found to be in the range of 0.7846–0.8535, 0.7687–0.8423 and 0.7424–0.8982, respectively. For mechanistic interpretation, the structural attributes which are responsible for the increase/decrease of Tm are also extracted. The melting points of imidazolium ILs are studied employing a quantitative structure–property relationship (QSPR) approach to develop a model for predicting the melting points of a data set of imidazolium ILs.![]()

Abstract
Increasing diabetic population is one of the major health concerns all over the world. Inhibition of α-glucosidase is a clinically proved and attractive strategy to manage diabetes. In this study, robust and reliable QSAR models to predict α-glucosidase inhibitory potential of xanthone derivatives are developed by the Monte Carlo technique. The chemical structures are represented by SMILES notation without any 3D-optimization. The significance of the index of ideality correlation (IIC) with applicability domain (AD) is also studied in depth. The models developed using CORAL software by considering IIC criteria are found to be statistically more significant and robust than simple balance of correlation. The QSAR models are validated by both internal and external validation methods. The promoters of increase and decrease of activity are also extracted and interpreted in detail. The interpretation of developed models explains the role of different structural attributes in predicting the pIC50 of xanthone derivatives as α-glucosidase inhibitors. Based on the results of model interpretation, modifications are done on some xanthone derivatives and 15 new molecules are designed. The α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of novel molecules is further supported by docking studies.

Abstract
Histone lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has emerged as an attractive molecule target for the discovery of potently anticancer drugs to treat leukaemia. In this study, a series of novel chalcone derivatives were designed, synthesised and evaluated for their inhibitory activities against LSD1 in vitro. Among all these compounds, D6 displayed the best LSD1 inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 0.14 μM. In the cellular level, compound D6 can induce the accumulation of H3K9me1/2 and inhibit cell proliferation by inactivating LSD1. It exhibited the potent antiproliferative activity with IC50 values of 1.10 μM, 3.64 μM, 3.85 μM, 1.87 μM, 0.87 μM and 2.73 μM against HAL-01, KE-37, P30-OHK, SUP-B15, MOLT-4 and LC4-1 cells, respectively. Importantly, compound D6 significantly suppressed MOLT-4 xenograft tumour growth in vivo, indicating its great potential as an orally bioavailable candidate for leukaemia therapy.

Abstract
Robust and reliable QSAR models were developed to predict half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease inhibitors from the Monte Carlo technique. 524 HCV NS3/4A protease inhibitors were extracted from the scientific literature to create a reasonably large set. The models were developed using CORAL software by using two target functions namely target function 1 (TF1) without applying the index of ideality of correlation (IIC) and target function 2 (TF2) that uses IIC. The constructed models based on TF2 were statistically more significant and robust than the models based on TF1. The determination coefficients (r2) of training and test sets were 0.86 and 0.88 for the best split based on TF2. The promoters of the increase/decrease of activity were also extracted and interpreted in detail. The model interpretation results explain the role of different structural attributes in predicting the pIC50 values of hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease inhibitors. Based on the mechanistic model interpretation results, eight new compounds were designed and their pIC50 values were predicted based on the average prediction of ten models.

Abstract
The Monte Carlo algorithm was applied to formulate a robust quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model to compute the reactions rate constants of hydrated electron values for a data set of 309 water contaminants containing 125 aliphatic and 184 phenyl-based chemicals. The QSPR models were computed with the hybrid optimal descriptors which were procured by combining the SMILES and hydrogen-suppressed molecular graph for both classes of compounds. Approximately 75% of the total experimental data set was randomly divided into training and invisible training sets, while approximately 25% was divided into calibration and validation sets. The authenticity and robustness of the developed QSPR models were also judged by the Index of Ideality of Correlation. In QSPR modelling of aliphatic compounds, the numerical values of r T r a i n i n g 2 , r V a l i d a t i o n 2 , Q T r a i n i n g 2 and Q V a l i d a t i o n 2 were in the range of 0.852-0.905, 0.815-0.894, 0.839-0.897 and 0.737-0.867, respectively. Whereas, in the QSPR modelling of phenyl-based compounds, the numerical values of r T r a i n i n g 2 , r V a l i d a t i o n 2 , Q T r a i n i n g 2 and Q V a l i d a t i o n 2 were in the range of 0.867-0.896, 0.852-0.865, 0.816-0.850 and 0.760-0.762, respectively. The structural attributes, which are promoters of l o g K e a q - increase/decrease are also extracted from the SMILES notation for mechanistic interpretation. These QSPR models can also be applied to compute the reaction rate constants of organic contaminants.

Abstract
Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of several infectious viruses that cause yellow, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika fevers. Recently, plant-derived products have been tested as safe and eco-friendly larvicides against Ae. aegypti. The present study aimed to improve QSAR models for 62 larvicidal phytocompounds against Ae. aegypti via the Monte Carlo method based on the index of the ideality of correlation (IIC) criterion. The representation of structures was done with SMILES. Three splits were prepared randomly and three QSAR models were constructed using IIC target function. The molecular descriptors were selected from SMILES descriptors and the hydrogen-filled molecular graphs. The predictability of three models was evaluated on the validation sets, the r 2 of which was 0.9770, 0.8660, and 0.8565 for models 1 to 3, respectively. The statistical results of three randomized splits indicated that robust, simple, predictive, and reliable models were obtained for different sets. From the modelling results, important descriptors were identified to enhance and reduce the larvicidal activity of compounds. Based on the identified important descriptors, some new structures of larvicidal compounds were proposed. The larvicidal activity of novel molecules designed further was supported by docking studies. Using the simple QSAR model, one can predict pLC50 of new similarity larvicidal phytocompounds.

In silico enhancement of azo dye adsorption affinity for cellulose fibre through mechanistic interpretation under guidance of QSPR models using Monte Carlo method with index of ideality correlation.

Abstract
Azo dyes are a group of chemical moieties joined by azo (-N=N-) group with potential usefulness in different industrial applications. But these dyes are not devoid of hazardous consequence because of poor affinity for the fibre and discharge into the water stream. The chemical aspects of 72 azo dyes towards cellulose fibre in terms of their affinity by QSPR have been explored in the present work. We have employed two approaches, namely balance of correlation without IIC (TF1) and balance of correlation with IIC (TF2), to generate 16 QSAR models from 8 splits. The determination coefficient of calibration and validation set was found higher when the QSPR models were developed using the index of ideality correlation (IIC) parameter (TF2). The model developed with TF2 for split 3 was considered as a prominent model because the determination coefficient of the validation set was maximum (r 2 = 0.9468). The applicability domain (AD) was also analysed based on 'statistical defect', d(A) for a SMILES attribute. The mechanistic interpretation was done by identifying the SMILES attributes responsible for the promoter of endpoint increase and promoter of endpoint decrease. These SMILES attributes were applied to design 15 new dyes with higher affinity for cellulose fibre.

Abstract
In recent years, one of the promising approaches in the QSAR modeling Monte Carlo optimization
approach as conformation independent method, has emerged. Monte Carlo optimization has
proven to be a valuable tool in chemoinformatics, and this review presents its application in drug discovery
and design. In this review, the basic principles and important features of these methods are discussed
as well as the advantages of conformation independent optimal descriptors developed from the
molecular graph and the Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System (SMILES) notation compared
to commonly used descriptors in QSAR modeling. This review presents the summary of obtained results
from Monte Carlo optimization-based QSAR modeling with the further addition of molecular
docking studies applied for various pharmacologically important endpoints. SMILES notation based
optimal descriptors, defined as molecular fragments, identified as main contributors to the increase/
decrease of biological activity, which are used further to design compounds with targeted activity
based on computer calculation, are presented. In this mini-review, research papers in which molecular
docking was applied as an additional method to design molecules to validate their activity further,
are summarized. These papers present a very good correlation among results obtained from Monte
Carlo optimization modeling and molecular docking studies.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disorder and being a social burden Alzheimer's has become an economic liability on developing countries. With limited understanding regarding the cause of disease, it is commonly identified by extracellular deposit of amyloid β (Aβ) peptides as senile plaques. Pyroglutamated Aβ is identified from the brain of AD patients and constituted the majority of total Aβ present. The formation of Pyroglutamated Aβ could be hindered by the use of Glutaminyl cyclase inhibitors and could efficiently improve the symptoms of Alzheimer's. The literature revealed the competence of quantitative structure activity/property relationship studies in drug discovery. The present work explores the efficiency of Monte Carlo based QSAR modelling studies on a dataset of 125 Glutaminyl cyclase inhibitors with pKi taken as the endpoint for QSAR analysis. The dataset is divided into training, subtraining, calibration and validation sets resulting in the generation of five random splits. The validation is performed in accordance with the Organization of Economic Corporation and Development principles. The values of R2, Q2, index of ideality of correlation, concordance correlation coefficient, av. rm2 and delta rm2 of calibration set of the best split are found to be 0.9012, 0.8775, 0.9479, 0.9435, 0.8347 and 0.0847, respectively. The structural features responsible for increasing the inhibitory activity are identified. These structural features are added to a base compound from the dataset to design six novel molecules. These new molecules possess improved inhibitory activity as compare to the base compound. The results are further supported by docking studies.Communicated by Vsevolod Makeev.

Abstract
Background:
The Monte Carlo method has a wide application in various scientific researches.
For the development of predictive models in a form of the quantitative structure-property / activity relationships
(QSPRs/QSARs), the Monte Carlo approach also can be useful. The CORAL software provides the
Monte Carlo calculations aimed to build up QSPR/QSAR models for different endpoints.
Methods:
Molecular descriptors are a mathematical function of so-called correlation weights of various
molecular features. The numerical values of the correlation weights give the maximal value of a target
function. The target function leads to a correlation between endpoint and optimal descriptor for the visible
training set. The predictive potential of the model is estimated with the validation set, i.e. compounds that
are not involved in the process of building up the model.
Results:
The approach gave quite good models for a large number of various physicochemical, biochemical,
ecological, and medicinal endpoints. Bibliography and basic statistical characteristics of several CORAL
models are collected in the present review. In addition, the extended version of the approach for more
complex systems (nanomaterials and peptides), where behaviour of systems is defined by a group of conditions
besides the molecular structure is demonstrated.
Conclusion:
The Monte Carlo technique available via the CORAL software can be a useful and convenient
tool for the QSPR/QSAR analysis.

Abstract
The similarity is an important category in natural sciences. A measure of similarity for a group of various biochemical endpoints is suggested. The list of examined endpoints contains (1) toxicity of pesticides towards rainbow trout; (2) human skin sensitization; (3) mutagenicity; (4) toxicity of psychotropic drugs; and (5) anti HIV activity. Further applying and evolution of the suggested approach is discussed. In particular, the conception of the similarity (dissimilarity) of endpoints can play the role of a "useful bridge" between quantitative structure property/activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs) and read-across technique.

Abstract
Ability of quantitative structure-property/activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs) to serve for epistemological processes in natural sciences is discussed. Some weirdness of QSPR/QSAR state-of-art is listed. There are some contradictions in the research results in this area. Sometimes, these should be classified as paradoxes or weirdness. These points are often ignored. Here, these are listed and briefly commented. In addition, hypotheses on the future evolution of the QSPR/QSAR theory and practice are suggested. In particular, the possibility of extending of the QSPR/QSAR problematic by searching for the "statistical similarity" of different endpoints is suggested and illustrated by an example for relatively "distanced each from other" endpoints, namely (i) mutagenicity, (ii) anticancer activity, and (iii) blood-brain barrier.

Abstract
Several types of metal oxide nanoparticles (MO-NPs) are often utilized as one of the novel class of materials in the pharmaceutical industry and human health. The wide use of MO-NPs forces an enhanced understanding of their potential impact on human health and the environment. The research aims to investigate and develop a nano-QFAR (nano-quantitative feature activity relationship) model applying the quasi-SMILES such as cell line, assay, time exposition, concentration, nanoparticles size and metal oxide type for prediction of cell viability (%) of MO-NPs. The total set of 83 quasi-SMILES of MO-NPs divided into training, validation and test sets randomly three times. The statistical model results based on the balance of correlation target function (TF1) and index of ideality correlation target function (TF2) and the Monte Carlo optimization were compared. The comparison of two target function results indicated that TF2 improves the predictability of models. The significance of various eclectic features of both increase and decrease of cell viability (%) is provided. Mechanistic interpretation of significant factors for the model are proposed as well. The sufficient statistical quality of three nano-QFAR models based on TF2 reveals that the developed models can be efficiency for predictions of the cell viability (%) of MO-NPs.

Abstract
In this research, QSAR modeling was carried out through SMILES of compounds and on the basis of the Monte Carlo method to predict the antioxidant activity of 79 derivatives of pulvinic acid, 23 of coumarine, as well as nine structurally non-related compounds against three radiation sources of Fenton, gamma, and UV. QSAR model was designed through CORAL software, as well as a newer optimizing method well known as the index of ideality correlation. The full set of antioxidant compounds were randomly distributed into four sets, including training, invisible training, validation, and calibration; this division was repeated three times randomly. The optimal descriptors were picked up from a hybrid model by the combination of the hydrogen-suppressed graph and SMILES descriptors based on the objective function. These models' predictability was assessed on the sets of validation. The results of three randomized sets showed that simple, robust, reliable, and predictive models were achieved for training, invisible training, validation, and calibration sets of all three models. The central decrease/increase descriptors were identified. This simple QSAR can be useful to predict antioxidant activity of numerous antioxidants.
