    Notes: Abstract The concept of composition as the counterpart to partition is introduced and advocated for the discussion of molecular properties. In the partition approach an observable (experimental) quantity is fragmented into contributions which are non-observable but which hopefully maintain constancy for fragments (bonds) in similar environments and thus facilitate comparison of data. With the composition as an approach the role of “fragments” and “whole” are reversed: one starts with a collection of observable fragment properties (e.g., atomic chemical shifts of NMR spectra) and then constructs an abstract non-observable quantity representing the collection of fragments as a “whole”. If a so-derived quantity for different molecules shows some regularity, the initial loss of information in condensation of independent fragment data is compensated by insight into novel structural correlations. The approach is illustrated first by ordering isomers (e.g., nonanes C9H20) with respect to their content of special graph invariants p 2 and p 3 (numbers of paths of length two and length three, respectively) and then showing that the constructed global quantity derived from individual carbon-13 NMR chemical shifts shows a regular variation with p 2 and p 3, very similar to isomeric variations of numerous thermodynamic properties of nonanes. Subsequently it is outlined how the difference (p 2 p 3) leads to a correlation for mean carbon-13 chemical shifts in octanes and nonanes, taken as an illustration for the approach. It is expected that the outlined approach opens new avenues for data reduction and the search for structure-property correlations.

    Notes: A brief survey of the maximum overlap method is presented and some computational aspects of the approach are discussed. The hybrid compositions and bond overlaps are reported for some thirty small ring compounds and a list of characteristic hybrids for various structural environments is given. The table of characteristic hybrids is extended to acyclic hydrocarbons and the transferability of the maximum overlap hybrids is demonstrated. Those aspects of the method which depend on geometrical properties of molecules have been considered in some details and the discussion is extended to some structural features of cyclic systems. In particular the asymmetry of bonds of spiro carbon atom is examined and rationalization of puckering of large macrocyclic systems is presented. In the summary it is pointed to the method and its potential to discuss structural aspects of molecules at the particular level of accuracy expected to be of great use in organic and physical organic chemistry. Further development and improvement of the method is mentioned, but already in the present form it can produce hybrids which may constitute a useful basis for other more ambitious semiempirical calculations.

    Notes: The resonance energy of conjugated benzenoid systems is expressed as contributions arising from independent conjugated circuits. The scheme has been applied to numerous very large conjugated systems. In many cases, it was possible to find regularities in the increments for the resonance energy within a family of benzenoid systems as the number of benzene rings is increased.

    Notes: While the concept of the graph center is unambiguous (and quite old) in the case of acyclic graphs, an attempt has been made recently to extend the concept to polycyclic structures using the distance matrix of a graph as the basis. In this work we continue exploring such generalizations considering in addition to the distance matrix, self-avoiding walks or paths as graph invariants of potential interest for discriminating distinctive vertex environments in a graph of polycyclic structures. A hierachy of criteria is suggested that offers a systematic approach to the vertex discrimination and eventually establishes in most cases the graph center as a single vertex, a single bond (edge), or a single group of equivalent vertices. Some applications and the significance of the concept of the graph center are presented.

    Notes: For most structures (molecules, graphs, lattices) a count of random walks for nonequivalent sites will give different numbers, particularly for walks of many steps. Occasionally one finds the same count of walks for nonequivalent sites. These have been termed “unusual walks” and have been closely examined in the case of trivalent graphs. While it remains to be understood what structural factors are critical, some regularities have been observed and are discussed. Unusual walks within a single structure signal “isospectural” points in a graph. A number of structures possessing unusual walks have been displayed, and a few constructive steps which do not alter the “unusual” characteristics of selected vertices have been indicated.

    Notes: In this paper we have addressed an important problem: how to develop a strategy for identification of the topological indices which are most important in establishing a model for structure-activity analysis. In particular we consider a rational selection of graph theoretical (topological) indices in QSAR. The approach is illustrated by the study of the toxicity of ethers on mice. The indices examined include the connectivity indices based on adjacency matrix, the conceptually related graph distance indices, and an information theoretic index based on partitioning of electrons in various domains. We have outlined the similarities and differences and discuss advantages and limitations among different approaches. Our emphasis is on the problem how to select in a rational way appropriate graph-theoretical descriptors and how to introduce higher “corrections” in order to improve derived correlation.

    Notes: We have examined variations in bond orders in conjugated hydrocarbons that follow improvement in MO calculations on going from topological Hückel MO to self-consistent Pariser-Parr-Pople-type calculations. Differences in individual bond orders can be interpreted as pointing to increased weights of selected Kekulé valence structures. Significantly, so indicated valence structures are those with the largest number of formal Kekulé benzene rings or the largest contribution to molecular resonance energy in terms of conjugated circuits.

    Notes: Isomerization of octahedral complexes XY6, by a mechanism known as diagonal twist (in which two ligands in cis positions, one to another, exchange sites) is considered. Construction of the corresponding isomerization graph is outlined (reported before by Balaban) and the problem of determining its symmetry is considered. Alternative routes for deducing the order of the automorphism group are described. The group is confirmed to be S6 and representative symmetry permutations (one for each of the 11 classes of S6) are shown. Alternative pictorial representations of the 15-vertex graph are also shown.

    Notes: After a brief review of empirical and nonempirical schemes used in the study of molecular properties, the difficulties associated with structure-activity correlations are outlined. Part of the difficulty originates with the lack of precise definition of a structure. An analogy is made with similarly vague concepts of structural chemistry - the notion of aromaticity. This follows with the description of a characterization of structures by selected graph invariants. In particular we consider the count of weighted paths derived from suitable weighting of the individual bonds in a structure. We adopted the weighting factors (mn)-1/2 introduced originally for the definition of the connectivity index. The approach thus combines some features of the very successful connectivity index with features of path sequences, found very useful in comparative studies of related compounds. As an illustration of the combined approach we consider a set of some 40 therapeutically active substances, studied previously by others, and derive their clustering (classification) which is solely based on the count of weighted paths and is devoid of any empirical parametrization.
