f

The SFEI are calculated from the reported Setschenow coefficients7 and are in units of cal mol−1 molar−1.

g

The polar amide contribution Kppa is calculated from Eq. 3 and the ethyl acetate data presented in Table S2, which also contains the corresponding information for the other members of the gycyl peptide series.
