Notes

21) Several references are given in the list of Henry's law constants but not assigned to specific species.
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.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
230) Yao et al. (2002) compared two QSPR methods and found that radial basis function networks (RBFNs) are better than multiple linear regression. In their paper, they provide neither a definition nor the unit of their Henry's law constants. Comparing the values with those that they cite from Yaws (1999), it is assumed that they use the variant Hvpx and the unit atm.
231) English and Carroll (2001) provide several calculations. Here, the preferred value with explicit inclusion of hydrogen bonding parameters from a neural network is shown.
232) Value from the training dataset.
233) Calculated with a principal component analysis (PCA); see Suzuki et al. (1992) for details.
242) Temperature is not specified.
249) Yaffe et al. (2003) present QSPR results calculated with the fuzzy ARTMAP (FAM) and with the back-propagation (BK-Pr) method. They conclude that FAM is better. Only the FAM results are shown here.
250) Value from the training set.
280) Value from the training set.
300) Value from the test set for true external validation.
338) Calculated using Gh and Hh from Table 2 in Andon et al. (1954). Note that the thermodynamic functions in that table are not based on their α in Table 1. Instead, the expression exp(−Gh/(RT)) yields the Henry's law constant Hsxp in the unit 1/atm.
561) Calculated using ∆Gsg→ H2O and ∆Hsg→ H2O from Table IV of Arnett and Chawla (1979). Since some of the values in this table are taken directly from Andon et al. (1954), it is assumed that the thermodynamic properties are defined in the same way. Since ∆Hsg→ H2O is defined relative to pyridine, a value of −11.93 kcal mol−1 from Arnett et al. (1977) was added.
562) Due to an apparently incorrect definition of the Henry's law constant by Andon et al. (1954), Staudinger and Roberts (2001) quote incorrect values from that paper.
