Descriptors for fluorotelomere alcohols. Calculation of physicochemical properties

ABSTRACT

Abraham model solute descriptors are calculated for several environmentally important fluorotelomer alcohols from published partition coefficient and solubility data. The various descriptors all show a gradual trend from 1:2FTOH to 8:2FTOH. The maximum deviation from self-consistent values is 0.19 log units in the calculations on vapour pressure (concentration in air) and solubility in water (concentration in water).
