Polymerization Activity Prediction of Zirconocene Single-Site Catalysts Using 3D Quantitative Structure–Activity Relationship Modeling

Martínez, Sonia, Cruz, Víctor L., Ramos, Javier, Martínez-Salazar, Javier·2012·Organometallics

Abstract

We have applied 3D-QSAR chemometric tools to analyze the polymerization activity of a series of analogous zirconocene catalysts with different substitution patterns in the cyclopentadienyl rings. The selection of the most stable conformers was performed by means of a conformational analysis of the different catalysts in a step previous to the QSAR study. The calculated QSAR model has been assessed in robustness following a progressive scrambling protocol that helps to check redundancy in the descriptor space. This model presents a good predictive ability as tested with a set of four catalysts. The final model is controlled mostly by steric contributions, which can be related to the weakness of the catalyst–cocatalyst interaction.

  • Early efforts in this area can be traced back to the use of linear models and descriptors.

  • Other 3D-focused approaches include the development of maps of electrostatics with probe molecules, an approach that has recently gained favor in deep learning models for predicting gas storage characteristics of MOFs, or experimental homogeneous catalyst activities, where it is sometimes called stereocartography.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
