Description for Octanol-water Partition Coefficients
Hardcover. The behaviour of solutes in octanol water mixtures equates closely to that of living tissues and therefore these Partition Coefficients (LogKow) have found many uses. The book features methods used for obtaining accurate LogKow values as well as outlining the principles behind the use of such data. Series: Wiley Series in Solutions Chemistry. Num Pages: 178 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PNF; PNR; TDCT; TDCW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 242 x 163 x 15. Weight in Grams: 416.
The octanol-water partition coefficient is a laboratory-measured property of a substance. It provides a thermodynamic measure of the tendency of the substance to prefer a non-aqueous or oily milieu rather than water (i.e. its hydrophilic/lipophilic balance). Partition coefficients are used extensively in medicinal chemistry, drug design, ecotoxicology and environmental chemistry. The partition coefficient is recognized by governmental and international agencies (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, OECD) as a physical property of organic pollutants equal in importance to vapour pressure, water solubility and toxicity. Octanol-Water Partition Coefficients is a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the thermodynamics of partitioning and of the octanol-water ... Read more
