4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
- Defined endpoint:
Octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow)
- Unambiguous algorithm:
log P = Σ(fini ) + b (Regression 11)
lop P (expl) - log P (eq 1) = Σ(cjnj )
where Σ(fini ) is the summation of fi (the coefficient for each atom/fragment) times ni (the number of times the atom/fragment occurs in the structure) and b is the linear equation constant and Σ(cjnj ) is the summation of cj (the coefficient for each correction factor) times nj (the number of times the correction factor occurs (or is applied) in the molecule).
- Defined domain of applicability:
The molecular weight of trans-cinnamic acid is in the molecular weight range of compounds in the training set
- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity:

Total Training Set Statistics:
number in dataset = 2447
correlation coef (r2) = 0.982
standard deviation = 0.217
absolute deviation = 0.159
avg Molecular Weight = 199.98
Currently, KOWWIN has been tested on an external validation dataset of 10,946 compounds (compounds not included in the training set). The validation set includes a diverse selection of chemical structures that rigorously test the predictive accuracy of any model. It contains many chemicals that are similar in structure to chemicals in the training set, but also many chemicals that are different from and structurally more complex than chemicals in the training set. The average molecular weight of compounds in the validation set is 258.98 versus 199.98 for the training set.

- Mechanistic interpretation:
The octanol-water partition coefficient is a physical property used extensively to describe a chemical's lipophilic or hydrophobic properties. KOWWIN uses a "fragment constant" methodology to predict log P. In a "fragment constant" method, a structure is divided into fragments (atom or larger functional groups) and coefficient values of each fragment or group are summed together to yield the log P estimate. Coefficients for individual fragments and groups were derived by multiple regression of 2447 reliably measured log P values. KOWWIN’s methodology is known as an Atom/Fragment Contribution (AFC) method.

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
The applicability domain is described by the range of the molecular weight of the training set as well as the identification and number of instances of a given fragment. The number of instances of a given fragment is compared to the maximum for all training set compounds. If this number exceeds the maximum number or a fragment is not identified, the estimate of a substance is regarded to be less accurate.
Limits of applicability:
Range of Molecular Weights in the Training set:
- Minimum = 18.02 g/mol
- Maximum = 719.92 g/mol
- Average = 199.98 g/mol

The target substance is within the validation set and experimental data closely matches the estimated value.

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
This will be used as part of a weight-of-evidence approach along with the experimental data available as part of the KOWWIN system – together this information is considered adequate to conclude on the octanol-water partition coefficient for the substance.
