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.
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.
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.
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.
368) Literature-derived value.
369) Final adjusted value.
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).
727) Calculated using the EPICS method.
728) Calculated using the "Direct" method.
730) Westcott et al. (1981) give a range of 2.8×10−2 mol m−3 Pa−1 < Hscp < 9.0×10−2 mol m−3 Pa−1.
