For aldehydes and ketones (marked with *), log Kp values may be too large by ~0.1 due to artifacts caused by polymerization, hemiacetal formation, acetal formation, hemiketal formation, and/or ketal formation in the PG/GL liquid phase; log Kp (m3/μg) values were measured at 20 °C in 50/50 (by weight) propylene glycol/glycerol. Corresponding activity coefficient values ζ were calculated by eq 2 using pLo at 20 °C and MW¯=83.3gmol. Values of pLo at 20 and 37 °C were used to obtain Kp values extrapolated to 37 °C by eq 9.

N = 3 unless NA (not available)is given for the standard deviation for the measured log Kp at 20 °C, in which case N = 1.

pLo at 25 °C from Pubchem, Open Chemistry Database, https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/, accessed June 29, 2018. pLo calculated using eq 8 with ΔHfus (kJ/mol) as follows: 2-Acetylpyrrole, 14.08; coumarin, 19.14 kJ/mol; vanillin, 22.40 kJ/mol; ethyl vanillin, 23.10 kJ/mol, all from https://webbook.nist.gov, accessed June 29, 2018. Experimental ΔHfus values were not found for maltol and ethyl maltol, so ΔHfus = 19.68 kJ/mol was used for both.
