The connective eccentricity index (CEI) of a graphGis defined as xi ee G= n-ary sumation xy is an element of EG1 epsilon Gx+1 epsilon Gy, where epsilon(G)(.) denotes the eccentricity of the corresponding vertex. The CEI obligates an influential ability, which is due to its estimating pharmaceutical properties. In this paper, we first characterize the extremal graphs with respect to the CEI amongk-connected graphs (k-connected bipartite graphs) with a given diameter. Then, the sharp upper bound on the CEI of graphs with given connectivity and minimum degree (independence number) is determined. Finally, we calculate the CEI of two sets of molecular graphs: octane isomers and benzenoid hydrocarbons. We compare their CEI with some other distance-based topological indices through their correlations with the chemical properties. The linear model for the CEI is better than or as good as the models corresponding to the other distance-based indices.
