Overview
A comprehensive compendium of published property estimation techniques for organic compounds. For scientists and engineers seeking to estimate properties of compounds, this time-saving Handbook brings together in one compact volume a vast array of property estimation methods from more than 2,700 published sources for calculating these and many other properties of organic compounds: * Density and molar volume * Boiling point * Refractive index and molar refraction * Melting point * Surface tension and parachor * Water solubility * Viscosity * * Air/water partition coefficient * Vapor pressure * Octanol/water partition coefficient * Enthalpy of vaporization * Soil/water partition coefficient. The property estimation techniques detailed in the Handbook have been chosen for their broad applicability and practical value. The discussion of each estimating technique includes a clear exposition of the technique, including classes of compounds for which it is applicable and critical consideration of its strengths and weaknesses, as well as many worked-out examples demonstrating the technique. The Handbook can be used on its own or in tandem with the Toolkit for Estimating Physicochemical Properties of Organic Compounds, an easy-to-use, Windows(r)-based program that puts rapid estimation routines and flexible search capabilities at the user's fingertips. The Toolkit CD features routines for estimating key properties of organic compounds and a database of property and other data for more than 24,000 organic compounds.
