Abstract

Abstract : Topological indices (TIs) are numerical quantities that enable theoretical chemists to analyse molecular structures mathematically. These TIs are essential to exploring chemical compounds using theoretical techniques like QSAR/QSPR methods. Superphenalene is a large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecule which has been quickly gaining importance as a building block for alternate energy providers due to its photovoltaic properties. The exciting features of this compound, coupled with its potential applications, warrant an investigation of its nature and properties from a structural perspective. The objective of this research is to compute the proper analytical expressions of four kinds of vertex degree-based (VDB) indices for superphenalene. The numerical values of these indices and 3D graphical representations also help in understanding the relationship between the VDB indices of the compound and its underlying chemical structure quantitatively.
