Linear free energy relationships used to evaluate equilibrium partitioning of organic compounds

Article Abstract:

Limitations and benefits of both single parameter Linear Free Energy Relationships (LFERs) and polyparameter LFERs are discussed in detail. The polyparmeter equation's ability to allow partitioning data from a myriad of compound classes within a single equation is cited among several other benefits of polyparameter LFERs as a reason the field of environmental chemistry should focus on implementing polyparameter LFERs instead of single parameter LFERs for the evaluation of neutral organic compound partitioning processes
