Notes:
An atomic parametrization for the determination of a hydrophobicity index that depends on the molecular conformation is presented. The hydrophobicity parameter was calculated in four alternative ways based on charge densities and atomic contributions to the total molecular surface area and depending on the approach, the molecular dipole moment. The geometries required for the computations were calculated using quantum mechanical semiempirical methods as well as molecular mechanics. The charges were computed using semiempirical methods as well as the Gasteiger method.
