of drug concentrations (symbolized by the square brackets) in the

living systems, they are usually determined in vitro, using n-octanol
as the lipid phase and a phosphate buffer of pH 7.4 as the aqueous
phase.

The Overton-Mayer Hypothesis of
Anesthetic Activity
a. All neutral lipid soluble substance have
depressant properties on neurons.
b. This activity is most pronounced in lipid-rich
cells.
c. The effect increases with increasing partition
coefficient, regardless of structure of the
substance.

• Where x is the substituent in question and P is the n-
octanol-water partition coefficient. Positif π value indicated
increased liphophilicity of the substituent. Since these
values are additive, P values measured on standard
molecules permit prediction of the hydrophobicity of novel
molecules.

Quantifying Drug Molecule Electronic Properties:
The Hammet Correlations

The Hammet constituent constant (σ)
was originally defined for the purpose of
quantifying the effect of a substituent on
the dissociation constant of benzoic acid.

Fig. Resonance and field effects of the electron acceptor nitro group and the
electron donor hydroxyl group on the stability (and pKa) of the benzoate ion.
Electron acceptors stabilize the anion while electron donors have the opposite
effect, increasing the electron density in the vicinity of the carboxylate ion and
creating on unfavorable ion-dipole interaction.

3. Taft steric parameter (Es)
This parameter was defined as the logarithm of the relative rate of the
acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of a carboxymethyl-substituted compound,
using the rate of hydrolysis of methyl acetate as standard:
