Abstract
Consideration of the structural, polar, and transport properties of water‐saturated solvent and solvent‐saturated water phases of three general and eight specific binary systems leads to the conclusion that the n‐octanol—water system is a very good allround compromise for use as a reference system for biological partitioning in drug design work.
