Let R be a commutative ring with identity. We say that tor is associative over R if for all R-modules A, B, C there is an isomorphism Our main results are that (1) tor is associative over a noetherian ring R if and only if R is the direct sum of a finite number of Dedekind rings and uniserial rings, and (2) tor is associative over an integral domain R if and only if R is a Prüfer ring.
