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.
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.
186) Experimental value, extracted from HENRYWIN.
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.
295) Value at T = 294 K.
300) Value from the test set for true external validation.
368) Literature-derived value.
369) Final adjusted value.
681) As explained by Miller and Stuart (2003), the measurements were performed at 296 K.
721) Modified gas-stripping method (MGSM); see Lau et al. (2006) for details.
722) Integrated gas-stripping method (IGSM); see Lau et al. (2006) for details.
723) Calculated with the principal component regression (PCR) method; see Lee (2007) for details.
724) Calculated with the partial least-square regression (PLSR) method; see Lee (2007) for details.
