This book is a systematic presentation of the methods that have been developed for the interpretation of molecular modeling to the design of new chemicals. The main feature of the compilation is the co-ordination of the various scientific disciplines required for the generation of new compounds. The five chapters deal with such areas as structure and properties of organic compounds, relationships between structure and properties, and models for structure generation. The subject is covered in sufficient depth to provide readers with the necessary background to understand the modeling techniques. The book will be of value to chemists in industries involved in the manufacture of organic chemicals such as solvents refrigerants, blood substitutes, etc. It also serves as a reference work for researchers, academics, consultants, and students interested in molecular design.

This compilation - the first of its kind - fills a real gap in the field of electrolyte data. Virtually all self-diffusion data in electrolyte solutions as reported in the literature have been examined and the book contains over 400 tables covering diffusion in binary and ternary aqueous solutions, in mixed solvents, and of non-electrolytes in various solvents. An important feature of the compilation is that all data have been critically examined and their accuracy assessed. Other features are an introductory chapter in which the methods of measurement are reviewed; appendices containing tables of the limiting self-diffusion coefficients of ions; and a list of references to data which have been omitted but where information about the diffusing system is given. This is the only complete compilation of self-diffusion data in electrolyte solutions. It will appeal to electrochemists in general, particularly now that recent developments in the theory of transport processes require these data. It will also have a special appeal to electroanalytical chemists in that the ionic self-diffusion coefficient is an important quantity for the interpretation of electrode reactions. In addition, the book will interest geochemists and environmental chemists because the migration of radioactive ions from nuclear waste in certain aqueous media will be governed by the tracer-diffusion coefficient.

The rapid growth in research activities related directly and indirectly to chemical intermediates has increased the demand for dependable spectral information on radical ions. Such information is needed for identifying newly-produced intermediates under various experimental conditions such as laser photolysis, pulse radiolysis, irradiation with synchrotron radiation, electron bombardment, electrolysis, chemical reactions involving electron transfer, and so on. This large-format handbook comprises the first comprehensive compilation of electronic absorption spectra of radical cations and anions. Most radical ions are difficult to produce by conventional methods and their highly reactive character makes their detection and measurement of their spectra difficult. However, the author of this book has employed a unique technique - a combination of matrix isolation and radiolytic methods - which has enabled him to record more than seven hundred spectra - most of which have not been reported before. In addition, approximate extinction coefficients are provided for many radical ions.

Data on the densities of organic compounds is essential for both scientific and industrial applications. A knowledge of densities is important in many areas, including custody transfer of materials, product specification, development of various predictive methods, and for characterizing compounds and estimating their purity. The densities of normal and branched alkanes are collected from the original literature published from 1863 to early 1996. All the values were critically evaluated. The tables contain the original lite- rature data, along with their estimated uncertainties, and the evaluated data, in both numerical form and as coeffi - cients to equations with selected statistical information. The volume also contains the CASR Number Index and a Chemical Name Index.
