Antoine equation constants for common lab solvents

Antoine coefficients in the form log10(P in bar) = A - B / (T in K + C), with the temperature range each fit is valid over. Use them to predict a solvent’s vapour pressure, or the bath temperature a rotary evaporator needs at a given pressure.

Notes

  • Extrapolating outside the stated temperature range is where Antoine fits go wrong, sometimes by a lot. The range is part of the data, not a footnote.
  • These coefficients give pressure in bar. Coefficients quoted elsewhere in mmHg or with log base e will not substitute directly.
