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.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
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.
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.
299) Value given here as quoted by Staudinger and Roberts (1996).
300) Value from the test set for true external validation.
365) Calculated using the COSMO-RS method.
368) Literature-derived value.
369) Final adjusted value.
370) Value given here as quoted by Petrasek et al. (1983).
371) Calculated using COSMOtherm.
