Molecular connectivity indices were calculated for 28 inhalation anesthetics. An excellent correlation is obtained between the relative anesthetic potency and the molecular connectivity index 0khgr[unknown] in addition to the charge QH on the polar hydrogens. This quantitative structure-activity relationship accounts for and quantifies previous observations on general anesthetics. Our structure-activity relationship is discussed briefly in relation to theories of general anesthesia.
