ABSTRACT
Design of new potent insecticide compounds of organophosphate derivatives based on QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) analytical model has been conducted. Organophosphate derivative compounds and their activities were obtained from the literature. Computational modeling of the structure of organophosphate derivative compounds and calculation of their QSAR descriptors have been done by AM1 (Austin Model 1) method. The best QSAR model was selected from the QSAR models that used only electronic descriptors and from those using both electronic and molecular descriptors. The best QSAR model obtained was:
Log LD50 = 50.872 – 66.457 qC1 – 65.735 qC6 + 83.115 qO7
(n = 30, r = 0.876, adjusted r2 = 0.741, Fcal/Ftab = 9.636, PRESS = 2.414 x 10 -6
)
The best QSAR model was then used to design in silico new compounds of insecticide of organophosphate derivatives with better activity as compared to the existing synthesized organophosphate derivatives. So far, the
most potent insecticide of organophosphate compound that has been successfully synthesized had log LD50 of
-5.20, while the new designed compound based on the best QSAR model, i.e.: 4-(diethoxy phosphoryloxy) benzene
sulfonic acid, had log LD50 prediction of -7.29. Therefore, the new designed insecticide compound is suggested to be
synthesized and tested for its activity in laboratory for further verification.

ABSTRAK
Telah dilakukan desain senyawa insektisida baru turunan organofosfat berdasarkan pada model analisis Hubungan Kuantitatif Struktur-Aktivitas (HKSA). Senyawa turunan organofosfat dan aktivitasnya diperoleh dari literatur. Pemodelan komputasi terhadap struktur senyawa turunan organofosfat dan perhitungan deskriptor HKSA-nya telah dilakukan menggunakan metode AM1 (Austin Model 1). Model HKSA terbaik dipilih dari model HKSA yang hanya menggunakan deskriptor elektronik dan dari model yang menggunakan baik deskriptor elektronik maupun molekul. Model HKSA terbaik yang diperoleh adalah:
Log LD50 = 50,872 – 66,457 qC1 – 65,735 qC6 + 83,115 qO7
(n = 30, r = 0,876, adjusted r2 = 0,741, Fcal/Ftab = 9,636, PRESS = 2,414 x 10-6)
Model HKSA terbaik tersebut kemudian digunakan untuk merancang secara in silico senyawa insektisida baru turunan organofosfat yang mempunyai aktivitas lebih baik dibandingkan dengan turunan organofosfat yang sudah
ada. Sejauh ini, insektisida organofosfat paling ampuh yang telah berhasil disintesis mempunyai log LD50 sebesar
-5,20, sedangkan senyawa baru yang telah dirancang berdasarkan model HKSA terbaik, yakni: asam 4-(diethoxy
phosphoryloxy) benzena sulfonat mempunyai log LD50 prediksi sebesar -7,29. Oleh karena itu, senyawa insektisida
baru yang telah dirancang ini disarankan untuk disintesis dan diuji aktivitasnya di laboratorium untuk verifikasi lebih lanjut.
Kata Kunci:analisis HKSA; insektisida, organofosfat; semi-empirik AM-1; perancangan molekul
