The Setschenow constant, K(salt), of a nonelectrolyte in a NaCl solution is shown to be related to the logarithm of its octanol-water partition coefficient, log K(ow), determined by K(salt) = A log K(ow) + B, where K(ow) is the octanol-water partition coefficient of the solute and the coefficients A and B are constants. The values of A and B were empirically determined from literature data for 62 organic compounds and validated for a test set of 15 compounds including several drugs.
