Abstract
A series of 53 1,2,4-benzotriazines as inhibitors of the sarcoma family of protein tyrosine kinases have been studied. The Monte Carlo method has been used as a tool to build up the quantitative structure–activity relationships for appropriate inhibition activity. The QSAR models were calculated with the representation of the molecular structure by the simplified molecular input-line entry system. Three various splits into training and test sets have been examined. The statistical quality of all build models is very good. The best calculated model had following statistical parameters: r 2 = 0.9843, q 2 = 0.9831 for the training set and r 2 = 0.9488, q 2 = 0.9300 for the test set. The structural indicators (alerts) for the increase and decrease in the inhibition activity have been defined. The computer-aided design of new potential sarcoma inhibitor derivatives has been presented by using defined structural alerts.
