Notes

1) A detailed temperature dependence with more than one parameter is available in the original publication. Here, only the temperature dependence at 298.15 K according to the van 't Hoff equation is presented.
11) Measured at high temperature and extrapolated to T = 298.15 K.
12) Value at T = 293 K.
14) Value at T = 310 K.
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.
81) Value at T = 288 K.
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.
238) Value given here as quoted by Gharagheizi et al. (2010).
239) Calculated using linear free energy relationships (LFERs).
240) Calculated using SPARC Performs Automated Reasoning in Chemistry (SPARC).
241) Calculated using COSMOtherm.
247) Calculated using a combination of a group contribution method and neural networks.
279) Data are taken from the report by Howe et al. (1987).
282) The same data were also published in Hansen et al. (1995).
299) Value given here as quoted by Staudinger and Roberts (1996).
315) Wang et al. (2017) provide separate data for cis and trans. However, since both isomers are identified by the same SMILES string in their study, it is unclear how the stereochemistry has been taken into account.
688) A typo in Ashworth et al. (1988) has been corrected by Howe et al. (1987).
690) The data from Schwardt et al. (2021) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −6.68864 +2211.35284/T −1.35565 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
691) The data from Khalfaoui and Newsham (1994b) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −593.56757 +30300.79738/T +85.11672 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
692) The data from Wright et al. (1992) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −294.54970 +16409.35487/T +40.82700 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
693) The data from Cooling et al. (1992) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −511.78322 +26710.11950/T +72.88403 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
