Due to the advances of various methods for the prediction of
toxicity of organic compounds and ionic liquids (ILs), it is
necessary to review these methods for scientists and students. It
is essential to compare the advantages and shortcomings of these
methods. Since many organic compounds and ILs are synthesized each
year, this book introduces suitable models for the assessment of
their toxicities. This book reviews the best predictive methods for
the prediction of toxicity of organic compounds and ILs, which were
derived by in vitro or in vivo experiments. Different available
quantitative structureâ€toxicity relationship (QSTR) models based
on various descriptors have been discussed to predict toxicity
parameters such as LD50 (50% lethal dose), EC50 (the concentration
of the desired IL that produces mortality of 50 percent of the
bacterial population) and log(IGC50-1) (logarithm of 50% growth
inhibitory concentration of T. pyriformis) of various classes of
organic compounds and ILs. The reliability of these methods is
compared and discussed. Each chapter contains some complimentary
problems with their answers, which can improve the experience of
students and researchers. The introduced subjects are suitable for
advanced students in chemistry, biochemistry, medicinal chemistry,
and chemical engineering.
