Xenon hexafluoride physical properties

In another investigation of the comparative value of lipid and hydration hypotheses (Eger et aL 1969), the minimal anaesthetic concentrations of the following agents were plotted against the relevant physical properties carbon tetrafluoride, sulphur hexafluoride, nitrous oxide, xenon, cyclopropane, fluorexene (trifluoroethyl vinyl ether), diethyl ether, enflurane (see above), halothane, chloroform, and methoxyflurane (see above). (These anaesthetics have been arranged here in order of increasing lipid/water solubility.) The results of this study showed an excellent correlation between...
