Hi everybody,
 is there a way of estimating in a crude way the vapour pressure of organic
 liquids and solids? I have a whole bunch of molecules and I don't need absolute
 values, just look for tendencies. So I imagine some calculation formula which
 perhaps contains temperature, possibly boiling point and melting point, or
 perhaps dipole moment, molecular weight etc. (easily accessible quanities).
 Is this wishful thinking?
 Best regards
 Merethe Sjovoll
