A new molecular quantum topological index QT was constructed by molecular topological methods and quantum mechanics (QM), which together with Gibbs free energy(G), Constant volume mole hot melting(CV) that were calculated by density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory for mercaptans. Index QT can not only efficiently distinguish molecular structures of mercaptans, but also possess good applications of QSPR/QSAR (quantitative structure-property/activity relationships). And most of the correlation coefficients of the models were over 0.99. The LOO CV (leave-one-out cros...
