Title: Predicting liquid densities of organic compounds: II, Nitrogen and sulfur compounds

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10133173

Correlations of liquid densities have been extended to more classes of organic compounds. The products of liquid density and molecular weight at or near 20{degrees}C were previously found to be linear functions of the number and types of carbon atoms in the molecule. Cyclic carbon atoms contributed more to density than carbon atoms not part of a ring structure. Carbon atoms which occupy two rings have since been found to contribute even different increments. Additional databases of liquid densities have been set up for compounds with cyclic oxygen atoms, cyclic and noncyclic nitrogen atoms, and cyclic and noncyclic sulfur atoms. Correlation parameters have been obtained by fitting these data by least squares minimization.
