A collection of more than 20,000 experimentally derived crystal structures for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that do not have two- or three-dimensional covalently bonded networks has been developed from the materials available at the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre. Of these 20,000 1D MOFs, more than 12,000 structures have been verified to be solvent-free and in exact agreement with the stoichiometry of the synthesized materials. More than 10% of the complete data set comprise materials including two or more distinct metals.

Adsorption of gas mixtures is central to adsorption-based gas separations, and the number of adsorbate mixture/adsorbent systems that exist is staggering. Because examples of machine learning (ML) models predicting single-component adsorption of arbitrary molecules in large libraries of crystalline adsorbents have been developed, it is interesting to determine whether these models can accurately predict mixture adsorption. Here, we use molecular simulations to generate mixture adsorption data with a set of 12 near-azeotropic molecules in a diverse set of MOFs.

Most of benzoic acid derivatives are toxic, which may cause serious public health and environmental problems. Two novel simple and reliable models are introduced for desk calculations of the toxicity of benzoic acid compounds in mice via oral LD(50) with more reliance on their answers as one could attach to the more complex outputs. They require only elemental composition and molecular fragments without using any computer codes.

Accurate prediction of pure compounds autoignition temperature (AIT) is of great importance. In this study, the Artificial Neural Network-Group Contribution (ANN-GC) method is applied to evaluate the AIT of pure compounds. 1025 pure compounds from various chemical families are investigated to propose a comprehensive and predictive model.

In the present study, a new method is presented for estimation of lower flammability limit (LFL) of pure compounds. This method is based on a combination of a group contribution method and neural networks. The parameters of the model are the occurrences of a new collection of 105 functional groups.

In this study, a quantitative structure-property relationship was presented to estimate lower flammability limit temperature (LFLT) of pure compounds. This relationship is a multi-linear equation and has six parameters. These chemical structure-based parameters were selected from 1664 molecular-based parameters by genetic algorithm multivariate linear regression (GA-MLR).

In this study, a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) is presented to predict the upper flammability limit percent (UFLP) of pure compounds. The obtained model is a five parameters multi-linear equation. The parameters of the model are calculated only from chemical structure.

In this work, physical properties of sulfur compounds (critical temperature (Tc), critical pressure (Pc), and Pitzer's acentric factor (omega)) are predicted using quantitative structure-property relationship technique. Sulfur compounds present in petroleum cuts are considered environmental hazards. Genetic algorithm based multivariate linear regression (GA-MLR) is used to select most statistically effective molecular descriptors on the properties.

The molecular diffusivity of 378 pure components into air was predicted using genetic algorithm-based multivariate linear regression (GA-MLR) and feed forward neural networks (FFNN). GA-MLR was used to select the molecular descriptors, as inputs for FFNN. The correlation coefficient (R2) of obtained multivariate linear seven-descriptor model by GA-MLR is 0.
