a

Values are taken from Ref 74.

b

Values are taken from Ref 71.

c

Upper additive ΔHvap calculated using standard approach with the lower value calculated using gas phase energies required for the ΔHvap calculation determined from conformations of glycerol obtained from the condensed phase simulation.71

d

Value of ΔGsol was calculated using the additive model of glycerol in Ref 71.
