Type

Table entries are sorted according to reliability of the data, listing the most reliable type first: L) literature review, M) measured, V) VP/AS = vapor pressure/aqueous solubility, R) recalculation, T) thermodynamical calculation, X) original paper not available, C) citation, Q) QSPR, E) estimate, ?) unknown, W) wrong. See Section 3.1 of Sander (2023) for further details.

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.
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.
282) The same data were also published in Hansen et al. (1995).
362) Because of discrepancies between the values shown in Tables 4 and 5 of Shiu and Ma (2000), the data are not used here.
366) Value given here as quoted by Haynes (2014).
371) Calculated using COSMOtherm.
372) Calculated using the COSMO-RS method.
