Not enough. There is also CandleWeb (using a
language pronounced 'awe' and written Å (A with circle on top,
in case your mail reader cannot display ISO-characters)
http://www.oslonett.no/~candle/

and a recently announced new tcl/tk-based WWW browser
(not tkWWW, but I lost the reference) which uses
"secure tcl", a controlled execution environment for tcl and tk
to execute applet code,

and I use (not yet secure) tcl/tk for my apps ...

Hello, everyone!

Last week I put forward the query for references of calculation of LogP 
and I got a few of very helpful answers. I should thank all who have 
given their kind hands. Here is the summary.

Regards,

Arthur Wang

************************SUMMARY OF CALCULATION OF LOGP***********************

Piece One:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From: vis@gensia.com

In response to your enquiry: There have been two recent comparisons of 
available methods. 

(i) Viswanadhan et al, J. Comp. Chem. (1993) 14, 1019-1026.

(ii) Moriguchi, I., et al Chem. Pharm. Bull., (1994), 42, 976.

A critique of the second review has also been published.

Leo, A. J., Chem. and Pharm. Bull., (1995), 43, 512.

After the pioneering work of Hansch and Leo on substituent constants for 
'Log P' (or lipophilicity), there have been several atttempts to develop 
methods simpler (such as the use of 'atomic' fragments, pioneered by 
Ghose and Crippen) and more complex (using information from Quantum 
Chemical calculations, such as the BLOGP method developed by N. Bodor and 
associates). Rekker's work on lipophilicity is highly notable as well. 
References for all these works may be found in the two references given 
above. We have developed the 'atomic' method much further, which is as 
yet unpublished. I believe several software companies are also developing 
newer versions & approaches and I am sure you will hear from them.

	Here you will find enclosed some references on the calculation
of Molecular Lipophilicity Potentials based on the atomic partition of
the total molecular LogP contribution.

Piece Five:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From: MARTIN@cmda.abbott.com

I'll just send some names, probably you have seen the articles:

Leo, Al; Rekker; Ghose & Crippen; Moriguchi; Klopmann; Brinkman--JCICS 
recently; maybe unpublished but the QM people doing solvation test their
model on logP--C. Cramer, Klampt (COSMO program), Tim Clark; I hear that
the Wavefront people have a model; Darvas in a CompuChem module; . . .
