Abstract
The molecular topological index (MTI), recently introduced by Schultz, is extended to heterosystems. In order to test the utility of this formulation of the MTI, the index is used to set up the structure-property model for boiling points of alkyl alcohols. This model is comparable to related models based on the connectivity index and on the Wiener index.
