Abstract: The net charges(Qc, QN,Q-NO2) of 50 nitroaromatic compounds were predicted by the quantum chemical method CNDO/2; the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (ELUMO) ,the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital(EHOMO), the difference of heat of formation (△(△Hf)) and the moment of dipole(μ) of 42 nitroaromatics compounds were predicted by MNDO. The relationship of structure-activity was analyzed with the toxicity 96h-LC50of the fathead minnow by using the seven quantum chemical parameters. Through statistical analysis, QSARmodel was yielded as follows:-1gLC50=11. 35-1. 28ELUMO-9.17QN+0. 46EHOMO-0.12μ n=35,r=0.920,s=0.298 The equation and those quantum chemical parameters were used to discuss the toxicity mechanism of the compounds studied here in fish.
