Type

Table entries are sorted according to reliability of the data, listing the most reliable type first: L) literature review, M) measured, V) VP/AS = vapor pressure/aqueous solubility, R) recalculation, T) thermodynamical calculation, X) original paper not available, C) citation, Q) QSPR, E) estimate, ?) unknown, W) wrong. See Section 3.1 of Sander (2023) for further details.

Notes

12) Value at T = 293 K.
21) Several references are given in the list of Henry's law constants but not assigned to specific species.
38) Value at T = 303 K.
68) Modarresi et al. (2007) use different descriptors for their calculations. They conclude that a genetic algorithm/radial basis function network (GA/RBFN) is the best QSPR model. Only these results are shown here.
185) Value from the validation set for checking whether the model is satisfactory for compounds that are absent from the training set.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
299) Value given here as quoted by Staudinger and Roberts (1996).

The numbers of the notes are the same as in Sander (2023). References cited in the notes can be found here.
