Notes

20)	Calculated using machine learning matrix completion methods (MCMs).
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.
186)	Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
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 H_v^px and the unit atm.
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.
248)	Modarresi et al. (2005) use different descriptors for the QSPR models. They conclude that their "COSA" method and the artificial neural network (ANN) are best. However, as COSA is not ideal for hydrocarbons with low solubility, only results obtained with ANN are shown here.
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.
