ΔGK1, ΔGK2 and ΔGges were calculated for a temperature of 10°C. ΔGCD (50.24°C) was derived from CD melting studies. ΔHges, TSges and ΔGges (37°C) were calculated from the difference of ΔGges (10°C) and ΔGCD (50.24°C). Errors in K1, K2, K2,4, K3,4 and KCD (Table 2) are statistical errors resulting from the fit. Errors in K1,2, K1,3, ΔGK1 (10°C), ΔGK2 (10°C), ΔGges (10°C), ΔGCD (50.24°C), ΔHges and T*ΔSges (10°C) are Gaussian errors calculated by error propagation.
