There are various methods available which are used to search large chemical databases and to predict the physicochemical properties of molecular structures. Using molecular descriptors for this purpose is the simplest of these methods. The Zagreb indices are amongst the oldest molecular descriptors, and their properties have been extensively studied and applied in QSAR/QSPR studies. The Zagreb coindices were recently introduced, attracting the attention of researchers in mathematical chemistry. In this paper, we study Zagreb indices and several other Zagreb-type indices including the general Randić index, sum-connectivity index, F-index, and Zagreb coindices of R-vertex and edge join of two arbitrary graphs.

Topological indices have been computed for various molecular structures over many years. These are numerical invariants associated with molecular structures and are helpful in featuring many properties. Among these molecular descriptors, the eccentricity connectivity index has a dynamic role due to its ability of estimating pharmaceutical properties. In this article, eccentric connectivity, total eccentricity connectivity, augmented eccentric connectivity, first Zagreb eccentricity, modified eccentric connectivity, second Zagreb eccentricity, and the edge version of eccentric connectivity indices, are computed for the molecular graph of a PolyEThyleneAmidoAmine (PETAA) dendrimer. Moreover, the explicit representations of the polynomials associated with some of these indices are also computed.

Abstract It is well known fact that several physicochemical properties of chemical compounds are closely related to their molecular structure. Mathematical chemistry provides a method to predict the aforementioned properties of compounds using topological indices. The Zagreb indices are among the most studied topological indices. Recently, three modified versions of the Zagreb indices were proposed independently in [Ali, A.; Trinajstić, N. A novel/old modification of the first Zagreb index, arXiv:1705.10430 [math.CO] 2017; Mol. Inform. 2018, 37, 1800008] and [Naji, A. M.; Soner, N. D.; Gutman, I. On leap Zagreb indices of graphs, Commun. Comb. Optim. 2017, 2, 99–117], which were named as the Zagreb connection indices and the leap Zagreb indices, respectively. In this paper, we check the chemical applicability of the newly considered Zagreb connection indices on the set of octane isomers and establish general expressions for calculating these indices of two well-known dendrimer nanostars.

Predicting physicochemical properties of molecules is one of the fundamental tasks in chemical physics. Many predictive methods have been developed for correlating the molecular structures with their physicochemical properties. One of the simplest such methods involves topological indices. Edge connectivity index (or equivalently, reformulated Randić index), which is denoted as ε, seems to be a good topological index for predicting the solvent accessible molecular volume and molar refraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. In this paper, a closed-form formula for calculating the reformulated Randić index ε of benzenoid hydrocarbon chains (or simply, benzenoid chains, which represent a type of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) is derived. Benzenoid chains with maximum (and minimum) ε value are also determined from the collection of all benzenoid chains having fixed number of hexagonal rings. Moreover, an attempt is made to generalize the obtained results for reformulated bond incident degree indices.

The field of graph theory is broadly growing and playing a remarkable role in cheminformatics, mainly in chemistry and mathematics in developing different chemical structures and their physicochemical properties. Mathematical chemistry provides a platform to study these physicochemical properties with the help of topological indices (TIs). A topological index (TI) is a function that connects a numeric number to each molecular graph. Zagreb indices (ZIs) are the most studied TIs. In this paper, we establish general expressions to calculate the connection-based multiplicative ZIs, namely, first multiplicative ZIs, second multiplicative ZIs, third multiplicative ZIs, and fourth multiplicative ZIs, of two renowned dendrimer nanostars. The defined expressions just depend on the step of growth of these dendrimers. Moreover, we have compared our calculated for both type of dendrimers with each other.

Background: Recently, some authors have defined new molecular descriptors (MDs) based on the use of the Graph Discrete Derivative, known as Graph Derivative Indices (GDI). This new approach about discrete derivatives over various elements from a graph takes as outset the formation of subgraphs. Previously, these definitions were extended into the chemical context (N-tuples) and interpreted in structural/physicalchemical terms as well as applied into the description of several endpoints, with good results. Objective: A generalization of GDIs using the definitions of Higher Order and Mixed Derivative for molecular graphs is proposed as a generalization of the previous works, allowing the generation of a new family of MDs. Methods: An extension of the previously defined GDIs is presented, and for this purpose, the concept of Higher Order Derivatives and Mixed Derivatives is introduced. These novel approaches to obtaining MDs based on the concepts of discrete derivatives (finite difference) of the molecular graphs use the elements of the hypermatrices conceived from 12 different ways (12 events) of fragmenting the molecular structures. The result of applying the higher order and mixed GDIs over any molecular structure allows finding Local Vertex Invariants (LOVIs) for atom-pairs, for atoms-pairs-pairs and so on. All new families of GDIs are implemented in a computational software denominated DIVATI (acronym for Discrete DeriVAtive Type Indices), a module of KeysFinder Framework in TOMOCOMD-CARDD system. Results: QSAR modeling of the biological activity (Log 1/K) of 31 steroids reveals that the GDIs obtained using the higher order and mixed GDIs approaches yield slightly higher performance compared to previously reported approaches based on the duplex, triplex and quadruplex matrix. In fact, the statistical parameters for models obtained with the higher-order and mixed GDI method are superior to those reported in the literature by using other 0-3D QSAR methods. Conclusion: It can be suggested that the higher-order and mixed GDIs, appear as a promissory tool in QSAR/QSPRs, similarity/dissimilarity analysis and virtual screening studies.

The connectivity index of an organic molecule whose molecular graph is Gis defined as C(?)=?(?u?v)??where ?u is the degree of the vertex u in G, where the summation goes over all pairs of adjacent vertices of G and where ? is a pertinently chosen exponent. The usual value of ? is ?1/2, in which case ?=C(?1/2) is referred to as the Randic index. The ordering of isomeric alkanes according to ??follows the extent of branching of the carbon-atom skeleton. We now study the ordering of the constitutional isomers of alkanes with 6 through 10 carbon atoms with respect to C(?) for various values of the parameter ?. This ordering significantly depends on ?. The difference between the orderings with respect to ??and with respect to C(?) is measured by a function ??and the ?-dependence of ??was established.

In QSAR/QSPR studies, topological indices are utilized to predict the bioactivity of chemical compounds. In this paper, the closed forms of different Zagreb indices and atom?bond connectivity indices of regular dendrimers G[n] and H[n] in terms of a given parameter n are determined by using the automorphism group action. It was reported that these connectivity indices are correlated with some physicochemical properties and are used to measure the level of branching of the molecular carbon-atom skeleton.

Pyrrolidinium-based (Pyr) ionic liquids are a very wide family of molecular species. Pyrrolidinium cations are electrochemically stable in a large potential interval and their molecular size hinders their transport properties. The corresponding ionic liquids with trifluoromethyl sulphonyl imide anions are excellent solvents for lithium/sodium salts and have been demonstrated as electrolytes in aprotic batteries with enhanced safety standards. In this study, the analysis of the physicochemical properties of a homologous series of pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquids with general formula Pyr1,xTFSI (x = 1–8) have been tackled by first principles calculations based on the density functional theory. The molecular structures of isolated ions and ion pairs have been predicted by electronic structure calculations at B3LYP level of theory in vacuum or in simulated solvents. Thermodynamic properties have been calculated to evaluate the ion pairs dissociation and oxidation/reduction stability. This is the first systematic computational analysis of this series of molecules with a specific focus on the impact of the length of the alkyl chain on the pyrrolidinium cation on the overall physicochemical properties of the ion pairs.
