QSPR modeling of the enthalpy of formation from elements by means of correlation weighting of local invariants of atomic orbital molecular graphs

A quantitative structure–property modeling of the enthalpy of formation from elements by means of correlation weighting of local invariants of atomic orbital molecular graphs (AOMGs) is presented. The method is applied to a set comprising 51 hydrocarbon molecules and results are quite good, with lower average deviations than experimental uncertainties. Some possible applications and further extensions of the calculation procedure are pointed out.
