New group contribution method for estimating properties of pure compounds

Constantinou, Leonidas, Gani, Rafiqul·1994·AIChE Journal

Abstract

A new group contribution method for the estimation of properties of pure organic compounds is presented. Estimation is performed at two levels: the basic level uses contributions from first‐order groups, while the next higher level uses a small set of second‐order groups having the first‐order groups as building blocks. Thus, the method provides both a first‐order approximation (first‐order group contributions) and a more accurate second‐order prediction (first‐ and second‐order group contributions). This article discusses methods for prediction of normal boiling point, normal melting point, critical pressure, critical temperature, critical volume, standard enthalpy of vaporization at 298 K, standard Gibbs energy, and standard enthalpy of formation at 298 K. The predictions are based exclusively on the molecular structure of the compound, and the method is able to distinguish among isomers. Compared to the currently‐used methods, this technique demonstrates significant improvements in accuracy and applicability.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
