  1. a Proton accepting powers: The data are cited from a table of Kagiya et al. [22], Crowley et al. [23], and Ishimaru et al. [24]. b Liquid having both proton accepting and donating properties for hydrogen bonding. c Liquid having only proton accepting properties for hydrogen bonding. d Cohesion energy: the data are calculated from the solubility parameter values in a table by Hansen [25]. e Relative swelling compared with that in water: The data are cited from a table of Sakai et al. [26] and Ishimaru et al. [27]
