Journal ArticleDOI
Electrophilicity-based charge transfer descriptor.
TL;DR: An electrophilicity-based charge transfer (ECT) descriptor is proposed and validated through the interaction between a series of chlorophenols and DNA bases and can be extended to the interaction of any toxin with the biosystem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical Reactivity Profiles of Two Selected Polychlorinated Biphenyls
Ramakrishnan Parthasarathi,J. Padmanabhan,Venkatesan Subramanian,B. Maiti,Pratim Kumar Chattaraj +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the global and local electrophilicity of polychlorinated biphenyls has been calculated using the B3LYP/6-31G* method in gas and solution phases in order to gain insight into the toxic nature of this compound.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiphilic descriptor for chemical reactivity and selectivity.
J. Padmanabhan,Ramakrishnan Parthasarathi,M. Elango,Venkatesan Subramanian,B S Krishnamoorthy,Soledad Gutiérrez-Oliva,Alejandro Toro-Labbé,Debesh R. Roy,Pratim Kumar Chattaraj +8 more
TL;DR: To study the intra- and intermolecular reactivities another related descriptor, namely, the nucleophilicity excess (Deltaomega(g)-/+) for a nucleophile over the electrophilicity in it, has been defined and tested on all-metal aromatic compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Careful scrutiny of the philicity concept.
Debesh R. Roy,Ramakrishnan Parthasarathi,J. Padmanabhan,Utpal Sarkar,Venkatesan Subramanian,Pratim Kumar Chattaraj +5 more
TL;DR: The philicity concept is put in proper perspective and it is shown that philicity is better than relative electro(nucleo)philicity when the intermolecular reactivity trends are considered and there is hardly any preference of one above the other as far as the intramolecular reactsivities are concerned.
Journal ArticleDOI
pKa prediction using group philicity.
Ramakrishnan Parthasarathi,J. Padmanabhan,M. Elango,K. Chitra,Venkatesan Subramanian,Pratim Kumar Chattaraj +5 more
TL;DR: A new approach for predicting pK(a) using the group philicity concept has been attempted and results reveal that the group electrophilicity is suitable for effectively predicting the pK (a) values.
