Abstract

3D-QSAR CoMFA and CoMSIA studies were performed on a set of trifluorophenyl derivatives as dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors. Based on the results, predictive QSAR models were established, with cross-validated coefficient values (q 2) up to 0.879 for CoMFA. CoMSIA model developed using combination of steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic, hydrogen bond donor and hydrogen bond acceptor features has shown q 2 (cross-validated) 0.875. These developed models may be useful in the identification and optimization of novel scaffolds with potent dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity.
