Ranking of volatile organic compounds for tropospheric degradability by oxidants: a QSPR approach.

abstract：:Over half of known industrial pollutants have minimal toxic effect, in line with the concept of "baseline toxicity"; such toxicity usually correlates well with lipophilicity. The remainder require additional descriptors in order to model their toxicity by the QSAR approach. Hence, it has not been possible, to date, to...
