Linear regression parameters for plots of literature ΔG°37 NN parameters vs. the unified NN parameters
| Parameter | Gotoh (ref. 7) | Vologodskii (ref. 10) | Breslauer (ref. 12) | Blake (ref. 17) | Benight (ref. 18) | SantaLucia (ref. 20) | Sugimoto (ref. 21) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Slope | 0.94 | 0.81 | 1.41 | 0.82 | 0.87 | 1.00 | 1.09 |
| Intercept, kcal/mol | 0.41 | −0.17 | 0.19 | −0.04 | −0.13 | 0.02 | −0.10 |
| R2 | 0.97 | 0.98 | 0.82 | 0.95 | 0.81 | 0.97 | 0.92 |
| SD, kcal/mol | 0.09 | 0.06 | 0.36 | 0.11 | 0.22 | 0.09 | 0.17 |
Fit to the equation ΔG°37 (unified NN) = ΔG°37 (literature NN) × slope + intercept (see text). See text for interpretation of the slope, intercept, and R2 (correlation coefficient). SD between the experimental NN and that predicted with the unified NN by using the linear least-squares slope and intercept shown. This reflects the agreement in the NN trend. See text for comparisons among the polymer studies.
