Abstract

Abstract The distribution behavior of solutes containing a hydrophilic group, between aqueous and different organic phases, has been examined from the standpoint of the influence of the organic solvent. The distribution constant (Kd ) has been well correlated with the solubility of water in the organic phase (S H2O) by an equation of the form where the constant a approximates to unity for a solute with a single polar functional group. The dimerization behavior of solutes in different organic phases and the relationship between the solubility of water in a solvent and interfacial tension between water and that solvent have also been examined.
