To search the potent pig pheromonal odorants through receptor-based approach methods, molecular dockings between 680 Flavomets as substrate molecule and pig odorants binding proteins OBP (1HQP) and PBP (1GM6) as receptor, and QSPR (quantitative structure-property relationship) analyses from physico-chemical parameters of Flavomets and their docking scores (DS) were performed and discussed quantitatively. From the basis on the findings, the optimal value $(MSA)_{opt.}=407.595\;{\AA}^2$ of MSA (molecular surface area; ${\AA}$), and RB (number of rotational bond) had the Flavomets will be able to increase DS. Therefore, it is expected that the stearyl alcohol from DS and H-bond type between substrate and receptor would be shows the character as potent pig pheromonal odorant.
