This study [35]has analyzed the conformational features of twelve known amnesia-reversal compounds (Fig. I), searching for common structural features which can explain the observed cognition-activating properties. Compounds 1- 6 present a similar anti-amnesic effect; compounds 7 and 8 are the most active compounds in the series and compounds 9-12 are inactive. The conformational analysis was carried out using the MM2 force-field, selected on the basis of an earlier study [43]: a comparison made with ab initio calculations has shown that this method is more reliable in the study of conformational properties of compounds containing a pyrrolidinonic ring than the AMBER and OPLS force-fields, or the quantum mechanical semi-empirical AM1 method.
The table-based statistical package, RS/1 [13], was employed to compile the generated grids into a QSAR table ready for statistical analysis. Statistical analysis was undertaken employing the multivariate technique of partial least squares as implemented in the QSAR package SIMCA [14], and the results were displayed in Chem-X [15]. 2 3D QSAR of a Series of Calcium Channel Agonists We will illustrate the 3D QSAR method with an analysis of the molecular features which control the observed activity of a set of calcium channel agonists [16].
