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.
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.
187)	Estimation based on the quotient between vapor pressure and water solubility, extracted from HENRYWIN.
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).

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