Hansch may be best known as the father of the concept of quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR), the quantitative correlation of the physicochemical properties of molecules with their biological activities. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR is the process by which Chemical structure is quantitatively correlated with a well defined process such as
