Conclusions

  1. 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. 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.
