Conclusions
-
1.
The π-donor properties of xenobiotic molecules of the dioxin type, as a measure for which we have selected the HOMO energies calculated by the CNDO/2 method, are not the deciding factors for the appearance of biological activity.
-
2.
The most active inducers of isoforms of cytochrome P-450 are characterized by the absence of sterically accessible reaction centers in the native molecule and in the product of one-electron oxidation.
