TL;DR: In this article, a quantitative structure-property relation (QSPR) regression for DCN is demonstrated using the chemical functional group approach, which reveals that the (CH 2 ) n group plays the most significant role in determining the fuel autoignition propensity, followed by the influences of CH 3 and benzyl type groups.
