Project

Organic Chemistry Division (III)

COMMISSION ON PHYSICAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (III.2)

Number: 320/22/98

Title: Evaluation of Methods for Obtaining Relevant Physiochemical Properties of Environmentally Important Organic Compounds

Coordinator(s): D. Lenoir and J. Altschuh

Remarks: Close coordination with Division VI

Completion Date: 1999 - project terminated

Objective:
This is the second of two new projects dealing with important environmental issues. It will focus on various properties, such as vapor pressures, water solubility, Henry's law constant, adsorption coefficient, diffusion coefficient, dissociation constant of acids and bases and octanol/water partition coefficients, and the recommended methods for measuring them.

Progress:
A group of experts in the various measurements has been constituted. This project will be carried out in cooperation with IUPAC Commission VI.1 and with OECD, which has set rules for measuring these quantities.

Last update: 27 August 1998

Project terminated 31 dec 2001
