The behavior of a molecule within its environment is governed by chemical fields present in 3D space. However, beyond local descriptors in 3D, the conformations a molecule assumes, and the resulting clusters also play a role in influencing structure–activity models. This study focuses on the clustering of atoms according to the vector space of four atoms aligned in the Z-Matrix Reference system for molecular similarity. Using 3D-QSAR analysis, it was aimed to determine the pharmacophore groups as interaction points in the binding region of the β2-adrenoceptor target of fenoterol stereoisomers. Different types of local reactive descriptors of ligands have been used to elucidate points of interaction with the target. Activity values for ligand-receptor interaction energy were determined using the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm. Using the Molecular Comparative Electron Topology method, the 3D pharmacophore model (3D-PhaM) was obtained after aligning and superimposing the molecules and was further validated by the molecular docking method. Best guesses were calculated with a non-output validation (LOO-CV) method. Finally, the data were calculated using the ‘graphic fingerprint’ technique. Based on the eLKlopman (Electrostatic LUMO Klopman) descriptor, the Q2 value of this derivative set was calculated as 0.981 and the R 2ext value is calculated as 0.998.
