Popis: Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) study has been conducted on 36 terpene derivatives with anticonvulsant activity in timed pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) infusion test. QSAR models for anticonvulsant activity prediction of hydrazones and esters of some monocyclic/bicyclic terpenoids were developed using simplex representation of molecular structure (SiRMS; informational field [IF]) approach based on the SiRMS and the IF of molecule. Four 2D partial least squares QSAR consensus models were developed with the coefficient of determination for test sets R test 2 > 0.62 {R}_{\text{test}}^{2}\gt 0.62 . Based on the established QSAR models, we found that carvone and verbenone cores possess the most significant contribution to antiseizure action examined on the model of PTZ-induced convulsions at 3 and 24 h after oral administration of terpene derivatives. Moreover, carbonyl and hydroxy group substitution in terpenoid molecules followed by hydrazones and esters formation leads to enhancement and prolongation of antiseizure action due to the contribution of additional molecular fragments. The presented QSAR models might be utilized to predict anticonvulsant effect among terpene derivatives for their oral administration against onset seizures.
