Molecular modeling is a powerful tool used for three-dimensional visualization and for exploring electrostatic forces involved in drug transport. This tool enhances student understanding of structure–property relationships, as well as actively engaging them in class. Molecular modeling of several central nervous system (CNS) drugs is used to examine the factors that affect their ability to penetrate the blood–brain barrier. Seventy-eight molecules with known experimental log(BB) values [log(BB) = log(Cbrain/Cblood), where Cbrain and Cblood are the equilibrium molar concentrations of the drug molecule in the brain and the blood, respectively] were selected from the literature and their three-dimensional models constructed using the Spartan software program. For each molecule, the percent polarity was calculated using a space-filling model (PSA%, polar surface area percentage) and an electrostatic potential map that was constructed from the wave function obtained from a single-point energy calculation, usin...
