Since the development of the Wiener Index, numerous topological indices
have been described. These methods convert molecular structure to a
mathematical representation (a chemical graph) and then define
computations to be performed on the resulting graph. Statistical correlations
between those results and physical properties serve as a predictive tool.
In organic chemistry, students are taught the relationship between molecular
structure and boiling point but generally do not investigate the phenomenon
because tools to support the tedious calculations are lacking.
We have developed a JavaScript program, "Topological Index Calculator,"
which computes key indices rapidly. Use of JavaScript benefits instructors who
may wish to modify or extend the program's capabilities and students who may
want to use the tool easily both in and out of the laboratory. With this program,
students may work cooperatively to develop correlations between topological
indices and physical properties of alkanes.
Background:A topological index is a value that is dependent on the molecular structure of a molecule. They are used to approximate physical properties of molecules, such as the boiling point. To get a better understanding of how indices are used, we will examine how to calculate the Wiener Index of a molecule.
Two very important graph-theoretical matrices are the adjacency matrix and the distance matrix. Both of these can be used to find the Weiner Index of a molecule.
The adjacency matrix A of a labelled connected graph G with N vertices, is a square symmetric matrix of order N. It is defined as:
Aij
= 1; if vertices i and j are adjacent
= 0; otherwise
The distance matrix D of a labelled connected graph with N vertices, is a square symmetric matrix of order N. It is defined as:
Dij
= lij; if i ≠ j
= 0; otherwise
where lij is the length of the shortest path (the distance) between the vertices i and j in G.
The Wiener Index is defined as one-half the sum of the elements of the distance matrix.
N NW = 1/2∑ ∑ Dij
i=1 i=1
For example: What is the Wiener Index of 2,3-dimethylbutane?
Adjacency Matrix: 2,3-dimethylbutane
0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 A = 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0
Distance Matrix: 2,3-dimethylbutane
0 1 2 3 2 3 1 0 1 2 1 2 D = 2 1 0 1 2 1 3 2 1 0 3 2 2 1 2 3 0 3
3 2 1 2 3 0
Wiener Index: 2,3-dimethylbutane
0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 3 +1 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 +2 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 1 +3 + 2 + 1 + 0 + 3 + 2 +2 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 0 + 3 +3 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 0 = 58
Wiener Index = 58 / 2 = 29
Results:Topological indices can be calculated quickly using the “Topological Index Calculator.” This information can easily be used to create an index equation by plotting the experimental boiling point vs. the index computed for a set of molecules and performing a linear regression analysis on the data. For example, data in the table below can be used to generate index equations for alkanes.
