Abstract: A back-propagation artificial neural network (ANN) was trained on the Gramer's parameters to predict the lgP (logarithm of "1-octanol to water" partition coefficients) of nucleosides and nucleoside bases. The prediction results show that the ANN method is betterthan other methods (BlgP, ClgP, AlgP) for this class of compounds.The effect of conformational flexibility or intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the lgPof nucleoside compounds is discussed.
