Does anyone know of a good algorithm / heuristic / handbook to get liquid liquid distribution coefficients? Also called partition coefficients?

I'm dealing with a water-toluene system. Two phases. And would like to know how styrene  (& some other compounds) would distribute itself between the two phases. i.e. Given a styrene conc. in one phase what the conc. would be in the other.

Approximate is ok.

PS. If I knew the octanol-water partition coefficent would that help somehow?

Like I said in another thread.  You may have to determine experimentally, if you can't find tables for your particular solvent system in some reference table -- probably an obscure source related to your profession.
