Abstract
Data have been compiled from the published literature on the partition coefficients of solutes and vapors into the anhydrous secondary and branched alcohols (2-propanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol and 3-methyl-1-butanol) from both water and from the gas phase. The logarithms of the water-to-alcohol partition coefficients (log P) and gas-to-alcohol partition coefficients (log K) were correlated with the Abraham solvation parameter model. The derived correlations described the observed log P and log K values to within average standard deviations of 0.14 and 0.13 log units, respectively. The predictive abilities of the each correlation were assessed by dividing databases into a separate training set and test set.
