bookChallenge: Build a Simple QSAR Model

Task

Swipe to start coding

Write a Python script that uses RDKit to compute a set of molecular descriptors for a list of SMILES strings, and fits a linear regression model using scikit-learn to predict a property value for each molecule.

  • Use the compute_descriptors function to calculate molecular weight, logP, number of hydrogen bond donors, and number of hydrogen bond acceptors for each molecule.
  • Use the build_qsar_model function to fit a linear regression model using the computed descriptors as features and the provided property values as targets.
  • Ensure that molecules with invalid or unparseable SMILES strings are excluded from the regression model.

Note: Make sure the RDKit library is installed in your Python environment before running this code. You can install RDKit using conda with conda install -c conda-forge rdkit or another compatible method for your system.
