Notes:
Relationships are formulated in an attempt to explain the variation in the antitumour activity and toxicity of a series of diacridines. Three types of conformation are considered, these being relevant to the three types of double intercalation of DNA. The CNDO/2 method, with the incorporation of symmetry adapted orbitals, is used to obtain electron reactivity indices. Significant correlations are presented between the biological activities and the electronic and steric indices employed.
