Abstract
Five different estimation procedures for micelle-water partition constants for organic solutes are discussed. The procedures are based on 1) knowledge of octanol-water partition constants for the solutes, 2) aqueous solubilities of the solutes, 3) normal boiling points of the solutes, 4) a bond contribution scheme, and 5) a group contribution scheme. Available data in the literature including our own are used in obtaining these correlations. Potential advantages and drawbacks of each of the methods are explored.
