Computational Tools (Free)

Weighted Fit You may wish to do a linear regression, y(x) = a + b x, using a set of measured quantities: x, y, σ(y) - the independent & dependent variables, & estimated standard deviations, resptively. Microsoft Excel® can do this, BUT the σ(y) values are assumed to be the same for all points. This may not be physically reasonable. Weighted Fit is a tool that can do weighted regression analysis, using a power series.

Wiki-pKaTM is a user-shared tool to retrieve reliable pKa values (many at 37`C) from a database (1107 records currently, 286 references), or contribute measured pKa values. Contributions may be e-mailed to r1bu5@in-ADME.com as an attached ExcelTM or tab-delimited text file, where each record consists of eight fields (no white spaces): compound_name, pKa_index(1_for_monoprotic_molecules), pKa_value, standard_deviation, temperature(`C), ionic_strength(M), reference(full_scientific_literature_notation), comment(name,date,conditions,etc.), with as many records as pKa values. The contribution will be reviewed and posted to the public database, along with a confirmation e-mail sent to the contributor. Thank you for participating in this experiment in information-sharing. We believe this to be the first use of Wiki for measured pKa values.
