Postal 1664, 59078-970, Natal-RN, Brasil Abstract In the present work, a quantum chemical study (Semi-empirical,PM6 method) is performed using nitrogen mustards (HN1, HN2 and HN3) as subjects in order to demonstrate that there is a close relationship between pharmacological activity and parameters such as formation enthalpy and number of conformers, which could, consequently, be employed as reliable QSAR descriptors. To the studied nitrogen mustards, a very simple equation o o relating log P, ΔH f and the number of conformers (Nc) was found: log P = [(log -ΔH f + logNc)/2]-0.28. Keywords QSAR, Descriptors, Formation enthalpy, Conformers, Semi-empirical, Nitrogen mustards, Log P Introduction It is well known that lipophilicity is a very important molecular descriptor that often correlates well with the bioactivity of chemicals [1]. Hence, lipophilicity, measured as log P, is a key property in quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) studies. In this connection, in the pharmaceutical sciences it is a common practice to use log P (the partition coefficient between water and octanol), as a reliable indicator of the hydrophobicity or lipophilicity of (drug) molecules [1-2]. For example, relying primarily on the log P is a sensible strategy in preparing future 18-crown-6 analogs with optimized biological activity [3].

Knuutila * Department of Chemical Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), 7491 Trondheim, Norway; [email protected] (U.S.); [email protected] (D.D.D.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 8 February 2019; Accepted: 8 March 2019; Published: 15 March 2019 Abstract: Various novel amine solutions both in aqueous and non-aqueous [monoethylene glycol (MEG)/triethylene glycol(TEG)] forms have been studied for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) absorption. The study was conducted in a custom build experimental setup at temperatures relevant to subsea operation conditions and atmospheric pressure. Liquid phase absorbed H2S, and amine concentrations were measured analytically to calculate H2S loading (mole of H2S/mole of amine). Maximum achieved H2S loadings as the function of pKa, gas partial pressure, temperature and amine concentration are presented. Effects of solvent type on absorbed H2S have also been discussed. Several new solvents showed higher H2S loading as compared to aqueous N-Methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solution which is the current industrial benchmark compound for selective H2S removal in natural gas sweetening process. Keywords: H2S absorption; amine solutions; glycols; desulfurization; aqueous and non-aqueous solutions 1. Introduction Natural gas is considered one of the cleanest forms of fossil fuel. Its usage in industrial processes and human activities is increasing worldwide, providing 23.4% of total world energy requirement in 2017 [1]. Natural gas is half of the price of crude oil and produces 29% less carbon dioxide than oil per unit of energy output [2].
