Abstract Values of the organic-carbon-based partition coefficient (Koc) have often been estimated using one-parameter linear free energy relationships (op-LFERs), which include both correlations between log Koc and log Kow, where Kow is the octanol−water partition coefficient, and op-LFERs that are based on first-order molecular connectivity indices. For chemicals with tendencies toward strong hydrogen-bonding or other specific interactions with the organic phase, however, these methods are not sufficiently accurate. Polyparameter LFERs (pp-LFERs) address these shortcomings by explicitly considering contributions toward free energy change from multiple kinds of molecular interactions with both water and bulk organic phases. This paper reviews pp-LFER theory and presents the development of a new pp-LFER for organic chemical partitioning with soil/sediment organic matter (SOM) using a data set of 356 carefully selected experimental values of log Koc for 75 chemicals, including apolar, monopolar, and bipolar compounds. The paradigm of representing SOM by a single pp-LFER is qualitatively supported by our results, and the set of coefficients for the regression log Koc= (1.10 ± 0.10)E − (0.72 ± 0.14)S + (0.15 ± 0.15)A − (1.98 ± 0.14)B + (2.28 ± 0.14)V + (0.14 ± 0.10) represents a proposed set of water−SOM-specific properties for estimating log Koc. The developed correlation outperformed other currently recommended approaches with the given Koc data set and also compared favorably against the use of new multiple class-specific op-LFER regressions. Overall, the pp-LFER approach is recommended over other current methods for the purpose of Koc estimation and especially for polar chemicals.
