Notes

21) Several references are given in the list of Henry's law constants but not assigned to specific species.
63) Tsuji et al. (1990) provide effective Henry's law constants at several pH values. Here, only the value at pH = 5.8 is shown for the (acidic) S compounds and the value at pH = 8.6 for the alkaline N compounds.
81) Value at T = 288 K.
187) Estimation based on the quotient between vapor pressure and water solubility, 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 Hvpx and the unit atm.
233) Calculated with a principal component analysis (PCA); see Suzuki et al. (1992) for details.
238) Value given here as quoted by Gharagheizi et al. (2010).
247) Calculated using a combination of a group contribution method and neural networks.
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.
280) Value from the training set.
299) Value given here as quoted by Staudinger and Roberts (1996).
