Notes

1) A detailed temperature dependence with more than one parameter is available in the original publication. Here, only the temperature dependence at 298.15 K according to the van 't Hoff equation is presented.
12) Value at T = 293 K.
14) Value at T = 310 K.
21) Several references are given in the list of Henry's law constants but not assigned to specific species.
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.
71) Solubility in sea water.
81) Value at T = 288 K.
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.
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.
243) Value from the training dataset.
244) Calculated using the GROMHE model.
245) Calculated using the SPARC approach.
246) Calculated using the HENRYWIN method.
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.
275) Value from the test dataset.
279) Data are taken from the report by Howe et al. (1987).
299) Value given here as quoted by Staudinger and Roberts (1996).
347) The temperature dependence is recalculated using the data in Table 4 of Lamarche and Droste (1989) and not taken from their Table 5.
666) The data from Görgényi et al. (2002) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −372.18420 +19566.35271/T +52.67600 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
667) The data from Wright et al. (1992) were fitted to the three-parameter equation: Hscp= exp( −1295.59488 +61538.96732/T +190.02999 ln(T)) mol m−3 Pa−1, with T in K.
