Molecular connectivity of phenols and their toxicity to fish

The relation between the acute toxicity of phenolic compounds to fish (Pimephales promelas) and the chemical structure of these compounds, was studied. An equation for predicting the toxicity of phenols is developed, toxicity increases with an increase in molecular size and with adjacent ring substi...

Zusammenfassung:The relation between the acute toxicity of phenolic compounds to fish (Pimephales promelas) and the chemical structure of these compounds, was studied. An equation for predicting the toxicity of phenols is developed, toxicity increases with an increase in molecular size and with adjacent ring substitution.
