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.
73) Value at T = 296 K.
81) Value at T = 288 K.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
288) Data taken from the supplement.
289) Calculated using the EPI Suite (v4.0) method.
290) Calculated using the SPARC (v4.2) method.
291) Calculated using the COSMOtherm (v2.1) method.
292) Calculated using the ABSOLV (ADMEBoxes v4.1) method.
368) Literature-derived value.
369) Final adjusted value.
370) Value given here as quoted by Petrasek et al. (1983).
375) Value at T = 283 K.
683) Value for T = 293... 298 K.
