Abstract
- The octanol/water partition coefficient P (logP) is a hydrophobicity index and is one of the determining factors for the pharmacokinetics of orally administered substances because it influences membrane permeability. To illustrate the wide-ranging variety of compounds in the chemical space, a two-dimensional data plot consisting of 25 blocks was previously proposed based on a substance’s in silico chemical descriptors. The logP values of approximately 200 diverse chemicals (test plus reference compounds covering all 25 blocks of the chemical space) were estimated experimentally using retention times in reverse-phase liquid chromatography; these values were compared with those of authentic reference compounds with established logP values (available for 17 of 60 reference substances in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Test Guideline 117). The logP values of 140 of 165 chemicals successfully estimated using four different mobile phase conditions (pH 2, 4, 7, and 10 for molecular forms) correlated significantly with those calculated using the in silico packages ChemDraw and ACD/Percepta (r > 0.72). Although substances that neighbored authentic compounds in the chemical space had precisely correlated logP values estimated experimentally and in silico, some compounds that were more distant from authentic substances showed lower logP values than those estimated in silico. These results indicate that additional authentic reference materials with wider ranging chemical diversity and their logP values from reverse-phase liquid chromatography should be included in the international test guidance to promote simple and reliable estimation of octanol/water partition coefficients, which are important determinant factors for the pharmacokinetics of general chemicals.
