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.
24) Value at "room temperature".
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.
368) Literature-derived value.
369) Final adjusted value.
375) Value at T = 283 K.
681) As explained by Miller and Stuart (2003), the measurements were performed at 296 K.
723) Calculated with the principal component regression (PCR) method; see Lee (2007) for details.
724) Calculated with the partial least-square regression (PLSR) method; see Lee (2007) for details.
725) The same data were also published in Dunnivant et al. (1988).
726) Value given here as quoted by Dunnivant et al. (1988).
727) Calculated using the EPICS method.
728) Calculated using the "Direct" method.
729) Westcott et al. (1981) give a range of 1.9×10−2 mol m−3 Pa−1 < Hscp < 3.2×10−2 mol m−3 Pa−1.
